The Reasons for Pain.

Good Morning.

You set yourself up to face the biggest challenges when you and another are engaging in a cooperative attempt to build a quality friendship, relationship, or partnership. The construction of these associations represent moments in time in which you finally encounter someone who holds a higher expectation of you than you do yourself. Though frustrating and vexed with "growing pains," after the foundation is laid, these unions have the potential to be the most beautiful and rewarding experiences that your life will ever entail. But anything that hurts is bad, right? No. Recall teething for a child, the development of breasts for a adolescent female, or the plight, including aches, bruises, and tears, to become a football star. All "painful" experiences, these are examples of good pain...pain that produces greatness. Bad pain; however, would be the pain that an eagle gets in its head when its flying in the wrong direction. The pain continues until the eagle re-routes its flight and this pain has a direct correlation to the hurt we endure when God is trying to put us on the right track and move us away from situations that mean us no good. Being that pain is an inescapable part of life and we're inevitably going to face it, it's imperative that we learn to determine whether the pain we're going through is designed to help us grow or to get us to change directions. Let's face the facts and realities of our situations, seek God, and determine the reasons for our pain.

Have a blessed day and thank you for reading!
