Love Until It Hurts

This past week has been tough for me. I've been greatly distressed by the violence, hatred, and injustices happening both here and abroad. Sometimes I feel like I just can't bear it all.

This page from my sketchbook is a quote I can't seem to get out of my head. God hasn't given up on this world, and neither should we. Hear the cries of my heart, my Deliverer. Help me to love until it hurts and then love some more.

"'Anyone can slay a Dragon,' she told me, 'But try waking up every morning and loving the world all over again. That's what takes a real hero.'" - Brian Andreas
