Those who think affirmatively do not get discouraged when they face a crisis, but make the crisis a chance for growth. When Beethoven was young, he lost his mother. So he wandered over the theaters for his music. When he was thirty, he could not hear a single sound. Nevertheless, he could attain the state of an artist, for the deeper his pain became, the more he loved and trusted God. In this way, those who believe God from the heart look up at only God under difficult circumstances. The deeper the darkness is, the brighter their light shines.
"It is good for me that I was afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes." (Psalm 119:71)
