Romans 7:18 I Know That Nothing Good Lives In Me, That Is, In My Sinful Nature. For I Have The Desire To Do What Is Good, But I Cannot Carry It Out.

When we are full of pain, we are then tempted to be ungodly. We are tempted to give up. We are tempted to give in. When we are full of pain we blame God for not healing us. When we are in pain the part of us that is "nothing good" comes to devastate us even more. When we are in pain we do not feel godly or devout. All we feel when we are in pain is the pain. However, we can be honest. We can pray in honesty. We can pray in honesty even when we do not feel like praying. In honesty, we can tell the Lord we do not feel like praying when we are in pain. There will come a day when all our pain is gone. There will come a day when we will be free of pain forever. There will come a day when all our efforts to truly be Christ's child when we were in pain will be rewarded in infinite ways.
