Lord, you give the pain of life purpose. You give everything purpose. If we don't see purpose in pain, no matter what route it takes, we will have wasted much of our lives. The highways and byways are full of lives that have bypassed their greatest opportunity for growth and discovery.
Have they found what they've been looking for? Has this world given them a gift? God is the gift-giver. The world takes. It'll take everything you give it. It'll rob you of your soul. God gave this world a precious gift just for the asking. This gift cost hell its power. Jesus said, I have overcome the world!" Join the ranks of the overcomers.
He doesn't promise no more pain,m but He does say that because He overcame, you will have His power to overcome too. There is a promise in the cross that reaches far beyond this world. This world is not all there is! We have passed from death to life. The King of glory is victorious. March on. Psalm 143:8
Cause me to hear Thy loving kindness in the morning, for in Thee do I trust. Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk, for I lift up my soul unto You. Jesus is the way!
In His Love, a work in progress.
