it is a beautiful feeling, knowing that God is in the midst of our pain. it may be hard to see him at the onset, but he’s there . . . waiting for you to come to him. words aren’t enough to describe it.

the greatest comfort that exists is knowing that God is in our pain. we may resort to what is familiar or usual as a means to escape from what will cause us discomfort, but these escape hatches merely provide temporal relief. if we want to experience the comfort that is true, real, and eternal, we need to hold on to God and never let go. only then will we be able to face pain head-on and say, “my God is greater than you.”

“Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” ~ 2 Corinthians 4: 16b-18 NIV
