Physical pain consumes our thoughts and body. It demands our attention to fix whatever is wrong. Sadly, not all things can be fixed; some pain needs to be endured. Focusing on the scriptures is a helpful way to refocus the mind. Proverbs 17:22  ”A merry heart doeth good like<\/em> a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.”<\/p>\n

When in pain we realize our own littleness, yet God is close to us when we are in that attitude.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Isaiah 57:15  “For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is<\/em> Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place,<\/em> with him also that is<\/em> of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.”<\/p>\n

Psalms 103:10-17 “…as the heaven is high above the earth, so<\/em> great is his mercy toward them that fear him<\/strong>. As far as the east is from the west, so<\/em> far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Like as a father pitieth his<\/em> children, so<\/em> the LORD pitieth them that fear him. For he knoweth our frame<\/strong>; he remembereth that we are<\/em> dust.  As for<\/em> man, his days are<\/em> as grass: as a flower of the field, so he flourisheth… But the mercy of the LORD is<\/em> from everlasting to everlasting<\/strong> upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children”<\/p>\n

When we are comforted by God, we learn to be more compassionate and give comfort to others. 2 Corinthians 1:3,4 “ Blessed be<\/em> God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble<\/strong>, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.”<\/p>\n

We need to have hope that someday in God’s thousand year kingdom there will be a new heavens and a new earth. (Not a literal but a new society.) By faith we need to grasp these blessings to help lift us above the current difficulties. Here are some promises we look forward to:<\/p>\n

Revelation 21:4 “And God shall wipe away all tears<\/strong> from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain<\/strong>: for the former things are passed away.”<\/p>\n

Isaiah 33:24 “the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Isaiah 25:8 “He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces”.<\/em><\/p>\n

Isaiah 35:10 “And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness<\/strong>, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
