And they sink their teeth in; out goes a chunk of flesh.

I’ve come to realise that it is impossible not to get hurt in ministry. Investing in the lives of others means you will get close, you will do things that you’ve never imagined yourself doing, you will persevere even when every fibre of your being screams at you to give up. All because of love. This is why the wound seems to sting even more.

There are a lot of people I know who won’t let the danger of getting hurt stop them. In spite of the possibility (there will always be possibilities), they love. But hey, whoever said they loved solely based on their own strength?
