TRAINED BY PAIN Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it. Hebrews 12:11 No one is excluded from pain in this world. Emotional pain is often the hardest to get through. Thank God we are able to learn from our pain. We seldom stop to measure the value of our hurts and hardships as a fruit of righteousness. If your life is submitted to the Lord and you know your commitment to please Him, then nothing can rob you of His purposes. When we face trials it is wise to seek the Lords help, but also to ponder what learning and training has come to us from it. If it means we are learning, nothing can be of greater value. Thinkitthru! PRAYER: Lord, I often dont listen until it is too late. I am so glad that even in these situations, my training through mistakes adds the fruit of righteousness and often is an asset we dont recognise, until it is used by your purpose in the lives of others. Amen By Rev Paul Vice
