I have never really been a friend to anyone
Only seeing someone in need and fulfilling that need
I have an internal race - one that puts me in close encounters with the darkness and the light that is within me. I understand temptation, just as I understand victory.
You have to work your way through some things that you see cant be worked out. Its walking by faith. The rule is "If you are going through hell, keep going."
I love the negative because there is so much of it. Just like diamonds are buried in the deepest and darkest of caves, so are victories.
They are not there for everyone to see. They must be discovered and that is a path that you must keep a machete in hand and continually wipe the sweat from your brow.
So the question, have you sweated today? Have you worked at a life goal in the darkness where the only light that was there was you?
