“It’s not about turning away from the pain but learning to rest in it."
What a great thought....how often do we find ourselves trying to resist the pain in our lives when God wants us to embrace it. I am rediscovering how God is there in the midst of our darkness. He is actually much closer then we may realize.
The psalms is a great place to read when we are in pain. David and other writers were not afraid to idenitify the pain of there own hearts. There walk with God allowed them the opportunity to be vulnerable and open about there hurts, habits and hang ups.
May we all find that place where we can rest with our pain, knowing that God is there in our darkest moments.
How freeing is that?
