pain acknowleged before GOD invites deeper communion with Him. if we are to deny our pain through much activity, we would deny ourselves the healing that comes only with allowing HIM to bear with our sufferings. Joining with Christ on such an occasion, we will be freed and will rise with HIm. we have to face the truth of the suffering at hand. then we could proceed with a sober awareness of the Lord's presence and control as we arose in HIS greater life.(strenght in weakness)
pain, at the moment is really devastating and is truly affecting our lives. pain, is like really when we are hit, we could not say praise the Lord in an instant. our body reacts, physically and emotionally. we then try to rationalize things out. i experinenced it myself. i experienced pain and is still experiencing them even now. as they said, it is really part of life. really part indeed!
pain, when we feel it, there is nothing that comes to our minds than to take refuge and comfort ourselves. me, i would run and go somewhere. when i did try to face, i only fail. maybe it is safe to do such, to run. somehow, it is. but running wont really solve anything. let us face it, i have to face it.and this time, facing it with the strength that God provides.. that is why WOunds that HEal, because of HIM...

Jeremiah 33:3 'Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.' When I was in great pain, I claimed this versed and it helped me face the pain that I was in during that time in my life. It was also something that the allowed to happen so that I can be reminded that I can do all things through him who gives me strength. Too much pain maybe is too much, but when we lift them up to God it makes it easier for us to face the pain for we are not alone in those times in our lives.
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9; its when we are so helpless that God's words are strong for us to keep us from falling and relying in Him for whats best for our lives.
