Isaiah 63:9 In All Their Distress He Too Was Distressed, And The Angel Of His Presence Saved Them. In His Love And Mercy He Redeemed Them; He Lifted Them Up And Carried Them All The Days Of Old.

When your pain makes you angry…

When your pain makes you depressed…

When your pain makes you weep…

When your pain makes you want to get even…

When your pain drives you crazy…

When your pain pushes you in directions you do not want to go…

These are the times when your pain owns you.

These are the times when your pain becomes your master…when you become a slave of your pain.

When you find you are no longer able to be your own person but instead are the person controlled by the pain, stop everything for just a moment. In that moment when you have stopped everything, you are no longer a slave. In that moment, reassert your power to think on your own. In that moment of your freedom, praise God. In that moment of your freedom, let God wrap His love around you.
