Pain and Hurt can Help

"God can and often does use our pain and disappointments in surprising ways."

Pain is something that we all go through. It is sometimes hard to believe that pain is "allowed" in our lives for good, but I am one that believes this is the case. Everything happens for a reason. I know that others would disagree with me but I feel very strongly about this.

Pain and hurt is something that is a part of life. We all have experienced it in some way shape or form and have learned from it as well. I know that there are things in my life that I have gone through and can look back now and see that there was a reason that I had to go through it.

No matter your beliefs, we can all use our past pain and disappointments to help others. Sometimes the best thing to do for someone else is to let them know you understand their situation and you can empathize with them because you experienced the same thing. Knowing that someone else got through the hurt is one of the best ways to give comfort. If you can use yous past pain for good, why not? It will help you in the process or helping someone else!

"God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains. It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world."
         C.S. Lewis
