Topic:
See Beyond The Pain
Human beings have every kind of pain imaginable. As a species, we
have physical, emotional, and spiritual pain. Pain is the great weapon
of the darkness to stop us in our tracks. Unfortunately, pain does stop
us in our tracks and pain also puts blinders on us. Long-term emotional
or physical pain grinds us down and kills our hope and promise for the
future. When our hope and promise are gone, the effects of our pain
increase and we are then caught up in a never-ending cycle of assuaging
the pain and grasping at the straws of hope we seem to have lost. What
we must try to remember when we suffer is to try and see beyond the
pain. When we see beyond our present pain, our vision of a better day
and a better future help us manage the moment. What pain does to us is
take away our future because the pain makes us focus so intently upon
the present. Thus, when we are in pain we have no future, and for most
of us, when we have no future, we have no life. However, in all the
tough times of life, God does give us the ability to look up, to see,
and to envision a better day as we embrace His hope and His promise.
