Welcome to Camp Funk

When life gets extremely difficult, when we experience the deepest suffering, we've ever encountered, when we come to the end of ourselves--then we are blessed.  

It seems upside down.  But maybe the problem is that we've spent so much of our lives looking at something upside down that it seems right side up to us.  Just consider it..the whole world is crazy, and Jesus is right.

If so, then his message would be that blessing isn't dependent on what happens on the outside.  It comes from the inside- and there is a blessing to be found only through the shedding of a certain number of tears.  

I've been there numerous times and experienced what he's talking about.  It's the blessing that can be found only at the end of your dreams, when you come to the end of yourself.
