Pain is a part of life. Everyone goes through some kind of pain in life. Be it emotional or physical pain. Loved ones can warn you about things that cause pain but most times it takes us individually to figure it out. Sports can cause pain, girls, food, gas, light, relationships, drugs, cars, doctors, animals, money. Anything can really cause us some sort of pain.
No matter what the pain comes from or the form it comes in we must learn to endure it, until it is over. We can come up with a number of things to get over the pain that is affecting us at the current moment.
I sit here writing this as I am experiencing a little pain. Not as much as I was told to expect after having surgery on my knee, which is good. But it got me thinking on how we deal with pain and the role it plays in our lives.
It most definitely plays a big part in our lives.
It doesn't fail us.
It sometimes doesn't stop.
It sometimes includes blood.
It sometimes includes other people.
No matter what pain feels like to us, no matter how much of it there is, pain will strengthen us. It will teach us more about ourselves thn we ever knew. It will bring us to a place of life experience.
Most importantly the pain we go through is nothing compared to the pain God must have felt when he crucified His Son for US!
The pain he must felt when he punished his son for something he didnt deserve but that we did.
Pain is one of the most just things in the world. It comes as an effect only when needed.
God justly poured out his pain on Christ for us.
So pain is just weakness leaving the body as a t-shirt might read.
But pain is a reminder of Gods love.
