Pain is just pain.
It is not the end of the world.
It will not last forever.
I tried to escape it tonight.
How foolish am I!
My errands did not fix it.
I was reminded I could not ignore it.
I tried to find the strength to face it.
Went home,
turned on Moody radio,
and took a wonderful bubble bath.
I soaked in the bubbly hot water,
my heart soaking in the words of the sermon.
Then, was encouraged through a friend's phone call.
It directed me to the Word.
Found strength in 1 Peter...
...Suffering.
And then the Lord pulls us through.
Lesson: when it's hardest to come to Him, come.

Absolutely! We need him most when we're hurting. And I think physical suffering is sometimes easier than the heart.
ReplyDeleteWhy is it hardest to come to Him at the times we need Him most???
