Discovering the Gates of Truth
Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go,
Joshua 1:7

Just yesterday I was watching on TV a documentary about ostriches. I think most of us only know that ostriches are large, fast and with a lot of strength in their hind legs.
However, despite this strength, speed and size, when they find themselves in a dangerous situation, they dig a hole in the ground and stick their head in it, as if escaping from the problem or simply pretending it has disappeared.
In the same way we have heard the expression "wanting to cover the sun with a finger", meaning that, even if we cover the sun with our finger, it will still be there and will not disappear. I personally believe that at times we also want to run away from our problems, and it is not something I judge, since it is necessary to have the strength of spirit and the necessary strength to face a complicated situation, but we must also remember that God urges us to face the problems and not run away from them because, in the same way as with the sun, they will not disappear.
Then perhaps we should just remember that God is watching us and is at our side permanently; that we do not walk alone on this road to Christ, and that with His help we will overcome all the obstacles that come our way. God is a witness of everything that happens to us and everything we do, let us honor Him by facing our problems.
