We all go through disappointments in life. With that understanding, pain is inevitable. It’s easy to get discouraged – even bitter – and think, “Why is this happening to me?”It’s been said, “Don’t put a question mark where God has put a period.” All of us have things we don’t understand. One reason is because we can’t see the big picture for our lives. We must trust – even in the painful times – that God has a design that is best fitted for our lives. God knows what you need, when you need it. Every struggle is making you stronger. Every difficulty is growing you up. Every painful time, even though you may not like it, it's is developing something in you that can only be developed through resistance. If you avoid pain, you avoid growth. Many times, our pain is a sign that we are about to give birth to something greater. Pain comes and goes, but when you remain in faith you will be left with God’s faithfulness and His promise. With God, your pain will become your gain.
