A Daily Devotional About our in victory while in pain: Romans 8:23 Not only so, but we ourselves,
who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for
our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. (NIV) In some of the ways of
life, there is pain. In our pain, God hurts when we hurt. He suffers our pain
along with us. When we hurt, God is always calling out to us telling us He loves
us and cares about us. God's healing love through the Holy Spirit flows over our
life when we are in pain. However, pain is still a part of our reality. God
wants us to grow and mature when we are in pain. Why God does not stop our pain
is often a deep mystery we may never solve in our lifetime. Perhaps God must follow universal conventions or rules
He set down at the beginning of time until Christ returns. We may come to
understand pain has no purpose but to pull us away from God. We must also
understand pain will end when we see Jesus either in Heaven or on Earth. In
pain, we have a hope greater than suffering. In pain, we have a victory that
cannot be snuffed out. In pain, we have a most divine and wonderful
distraction�a future full of glory, peace, and tearless joy with Christ. |
