if you never felt pain,

then how would you know that I am The Healer?

if you never went through difficulties,

then how would you know that I am a Deliverer?

if you never had a trial,

then how could you call yourself an overcomer?

if you never felt sadness,

then how would you know that I am a Comforter?

if you never made a mistake,

then how would you know that I am Forgiving?

if I never corrected you,

then how would you know that I love you?

if you knew all,

then how would you know that I will answer your questions?

if you never were in trouble,

then how would you know that I will come to your rescue?

if you never were broken,

then how would you know that I can make you whole?

if you never had a problem,

then how would you know that I can solve them?

if I gave you everything,

then how would you appreciate them?

if you had all power,

then how would you learn to depend on Me?
