Whatever you are enduring it is worth it if you find God on the other side. If it worked for me it can work for anybody.
1 Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
This is a great quote from scripture and is wisdom and understanding that many people need to hear.
I have yet to make it through the Bible once... I can only imagine the knowledge, understanding and wisdom that comes with time and depth by reading it as many times as you have.
“We can rest contentedly in our sins and in our stupidities; and anyone who has watched gluttons shoveling down the most exquisite foods as if they did not know what they were eating, will admit that we can ignore even pleasure. But pain insists on being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.” (C.S. Lewis, The Problem of Pain)
