In His kindness God
called you to share in His eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, He
will restore, support, and strengthen you, and He will place you on a firm
foundation. 1 Peter 5:10
Elliott and I were having a great time playing the other
afternoon, when he suddenly quit laughing and drew my attention to a cut on his
finger that was bleeding. My focus
quickly became geared towards how to stop the bleeding as quickly as possible,
so I washed his hands and we found a Band-Aid for his minor injury.
Sometimes when we feel pain, we neglect the fact that God is
still with us and become solely focused on easing our pain. We quickly forget that God always keeps His
promises to us and will never leave us or forsake us. In fact, God will never desert those who
follow Him. He never turns His back on us and never takes a vacation from
caring about us or our pain.
Even if we experience
pain for a time, we must never forget that God promises to help and heal us!
