Matthew 21:33-46
“To do this labor we have to learn how to get better at being uncomfortable. We have to learn how to reframe how we understand discomfort. When you are following Jesus, discomfort is a sign of progress, a sign that you are shaking loose of something that has constricted you, that has kept you from growing, from being reborn–like growing pains, like the grip of a contraction in transition labor.”
