Can Change Your Life

Sad
You have found that life starts
speaking in tears at an early age
and never seems to lose its voice.
You think that LongfellOw was a
little shortsighted when he OBJ
served that into each life some
rain must fall Some rain? Why, it
never rains but what it pOurs!
Shakespeare's Hamlet is on your
side. He said: when sorrows
come they come not single spies,
but in battalions."
But sorrow tends to soften what
is hard in you. 1t cracks your outer
shell. Furthermore, you should re-
member that high resolves and
noble accomplishments sometimes
have their birth in despair Bunyan
wrote his "Pilgrim's Progress in
jail. Beethoven composed music
when he couldn't hear note.
Elizabeth Browning penned her
famous lines while paralyzed. Jesus
prayed for forgiveness of His enc
mics while dying on cross.
Yes, you say, but these were I'M
usual people Certainly they were.
Unusual because they found the
riches of God hidden in their place
of sorrow. But God doesn't play
favorites. He is willing to give you
hidden riches in your sorrow, too.
Lay hold of them. There's no law
against being unusual. Anyway, the
bottom of life doesn't need to drop
out just because you're sad, the
word that can change your life.
