“It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” Deuteronomy 31:8-18 [ESV]
Don’t Let Your Pain Conquer You
Sometimes it can be difficult to identify the meaning behind a situation or why it took place in our lives instead of someone else’s not in a spiteful way but rather in a questionable sense. However, the pain we experience is there to strengthen us for the future and bring us up to a new level we could never imagine getting to without it.
If we respond correctly to the hurt we will see God’s ultimate plan for us and what He is doing for our benefit through the pain we undergo.
One thing that should be taken note of is not letting the hurts or pains that show up beat you down or become giants. Rather, release those emotions or thoughts by speaking to God in prayer or to a close friend or (if possible) seek a therapist who is able to be a listening ear.
You can stay motivated and refreshed if you learn to use your negative thoughts and emotions as a means of elevation and empowerment rather than a discouraging force or seeing it as a final stop to your journey. Remember this one thing pain is meant to be endured for a moment, it’s not a life sentence so treat it as such.
