The human counterpoint is emotion and knowledge. This includes our relationship with Jesus. Of course the unbeliever is left to temporal/secular perspectives.
We are to understand that grief/pain my stay with us for a lengthy period of time. Pressure may lead to anger, bitterness, isolation/loneliness and a critical spirit.
Pressure can also develop our spirit into a closer walk with God and a more gentle spirit for those around us.
