To be lifted up
you must first be pushed down
To be delivered
you need to be lost and then found
To experience joy
you must first be sad
To experience peace
you need something to make you mad
To gain endurance
you must first be persecuted
You have to be crucified in order to be resurrected
For a diamond to be made
it must be buried and heated
Don’t despise pain,
you may be struck down, but you’re not defeated
