Pain is inevitable. We try to avoid it, numb it or downplay it, but it doesn’t erase the fact that pain is real.
But for believers, we can have hope in our pain.
There can be hope because we have a God who doesn’t want our pain to be wasted. It’s our pain that He uses to draw us closer… go deeper… with Him. And at the end of the pain, for those who choose to cling tighter… draw closer… go deeper with God, then that hope becomes reality. The hope that says we can be better… not in spite of… but because of our pain and brokenness.
