love wash over a multitude of things

You see someone you care about in a destructive pattern, and you want so badly for them to pull out. So you rage and scream, plead, beg, and pray.

And it doesn't change.

The hardest lesson for me to learn--and I think, now that I look back, that I've been learning it all my life--is that there are some things I just can't keep from happening.

That's not the lesson, though.

The lesson is that there is One Who CAN. And will I trust Him to be my champion as He was Leah's, as He was Mary's, as He was Magdalena's?
