Pain is all around us.
My wife Joy has been experiencing leg pain this week which has kept her from sleeping well.
A friend is experiencing severe pain from a hand surgery. He says his biggest concern is not the pain itself, but that the pain is inhibiting him from hearing the Father's voice.
I have dear friends who experienced the pain of losing a child at birth.
I know a man who experiences the pain of loneliness.
I am helping minister to a woman who has experienced much physical and emotional pain and abuse. She is seeking to enter a Christ-centered women's rehabilitation center this week.
Below is a bookmark I made for this woman and for all of us who experience pain.
Remember that we have an empathetic, compassionate High Priest in Jesus who feels all that we feel!
Seeing then that we have a great High Priest
who has passed through the heavens,
Jesus the Son of God,
let us hold fast our confession.
(Hebrews 4:14).
