Making Pain Your Servant, Not Your Master
BIBLE MEDITATION:
"And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for My strength is
made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my
infirmities,
that the power of Christ may rest upon me." 2 Corinthians 12:9
DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT:
There are three possible ways to pray when you are hurting. First, you can
pray that God will give you an escape from the pain. That's normal-in fact,
that's how drug stores stay in business! Second, you can pray that God will
give you the strength to endure the pain. And that, too, is a natural
response.
If we can't escape the pain, we can pray to endure the pain. The third way
we can pray is to ask God to enlist the pain in our lives for our good and
His
glory.
ACTION POINT:
If we pray to escape our pain, then we see pain as our enemy. If we pray to
endure our pain, then pain is seen as a master. But if we pray to enlist our
pain, we see it as our servant. We are able to find God's grace to glory in
our infirmities, that the power of God may be manifest in our lives.
