Betsy Guerra lost her daughter and learned that suffering comes not from what happens but from believing it's permanent. Pain is temporary, she says, but deciding a problem defines you creates ongoing suffering. Faith and hope can coexist with grief.
If you could understand that you can go through adversity and have no problems, you can lose your daughter as I did and still feel peace in the midst of your grief and your pain and experience hope. If you could understand that you could be broke and still feel like the most abundant person in the universe, then you would grasp what I'm explaining. I'm not talking about physical problems. I am talking about true problems. The true problem is when you believe the problem. If I believe that my daughter died and I'm doomed forever and I'll never be happy again, then that's a true problem. But if she died and I miss her and I'm grieving and I'm going through my healing journey, that is pain, but I am filled with hope and trust that God's plans for me are better than my own, that God's plans for her are better than my own. If I can live in hope and I can heal with peace while I'm going through the pain and adversity, I won.
