“I know that every difficulty we face in life, even those that come from our own negligence or even transgression, can be turned by the Lord into growth experiences, a virtual ladder upward. I certainly do not recommend transgression as a path to growth. It is painful, difficult, and so totally unnecessary. It is far wiser and so much easier to move forward in righteousness. But through proper repentance, faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and obedience to His commandments, even the disappointment that comes from transgression can be converted into a return to happiness.” KnowsFacesMovingJesusDifficultGrowthChristLordPathReturnEasierJesus ChristDifficultyPainfulDisappointmentMoving ForwardObedienceRepentanceRighteousnessCommandmentsUnnecessaryWiserLaddersLord Jesus ChristTransgressionNegligence Author:Richard G.
