Pain is a gift from God

So I am now on week 2 of my "Healing Is A Choice" practice/devotional book... I've been amazed at the new things I've learned from reading this powerful book and one of them is that pain is a gift from God . I know, sounds crazy, but in reality, this is the truth! 

"Pain's there for a reason. It lets your body know something's wrong and it needs to be fixed." "Pain is a gift from God to let us know that something is not right, that something in our life needs attention and fixing." AMEN for that! wow... 

I thank God for helping me learn something new this week and because I've accepted this message as something positive rather than seeing it as a curse in my life. If I am facing pain today, I need to address it so that I can grow and later on look back and realize that the pain was all worth it because they were necessary to get me to where I want... I'll be enjoying God's infinite blessings! 

My prayer and act of healing for today is: asking God to show me any feelings I have been trying to ignore and to help me understand what those feelings mean. Let Him begin to use those feelings to bring transformation to my life...
