I believe that one of life’s most misunderstood topics is pain. When it comes to pain, we avoid it. We numb it. We try and talk our way through it. We pray and ask God to remove it. But the one thing we rarely think of doing is to embrace it. We don’t embrace it because we have been taught that pain is punishment… if we are suffering, we must have done something wrong. Let me pose a question. Jesus never did anything wrong yet he suffered unimaginable pain… how do you put those two together? Listen this week as we unpack another lie: pain should be avoided at all costs. You might be surprised at how much relief you can experience by understanding the Bible’s answer to pain.
