P.A.I.N

Walking through this journey of life we have many companions. One companion we all encounter and is either a friend or foe is called PAIN. In the highway of life we will always travel through mountains and valleys in whose midst we meet with pain. We are born in pain, live life seeking to limit pain, and our passing on causes pain to someone. Even Jesus was not immune to pain as the cruxification was nothing but pain. There are many things we can say about pain are is just a few more.

P: Personal- Pain is always personal. Ask the mother about child birth, the husband watches and sees the pain but only the mother feels the physical anguish of child birth. Ask the person whose heart has just been broken and their pain is truly evidently personal.

A: Agonizing- Anyone who has been in pain knows that pain can however short or long it is it will cause one to agonize. This aspect of pain fuels prayer touching the hearts of both the Hearer and bearer.

I: Incidental- Pain is not a constant but occurs incidentally. Ask the person who cut themselves while chopping meat or onions, it wasn't planned but that incident leaves a scar that teaches one a life lesson.

N:-Nurturing- Pain will cause one to reflect on life's incidents and draw lessons that build and makes us to be who we are.

We all have pain but don't allow pain to frustrate your dreams let it fuel and cause you to rise above the place of devastation. God will change your sorrow to joy, mourning to dancing only if you chose to allow Him.
