The Pain of Life.

I have been pricked, prodded and poked, more times than I would like to imagine and think about.  If the holes that they made didn't heal up on their own, I would probably have more holes in my body than in Bernie Madoffs money making scheme.  Though when they prick me for a needle, whether it's for blood or like this morning for an IV, to put me to sleep, it hurts.  It brings to my memory if a little prick of a needle hurts me, how did Jesus feel on the day,  He was being Crucified.  What did the nails feel like going through his skin.  We know that no bones where broken so the nails had to go through his wrists and not the palm of his hands.  The whipping that He received from what I have read and studied had some type of sharp objects on it, so that too wasn't the easiest thing that He had to go through.  When I was talking to the doctor about my process with my stomach, he had said that I may have to have surgery, but he was like I know that your not jumping at the chance to have surgery.  Not after having 68, but regardless of what Happens, I know that God will be their with me, next to me, in the room with me, and guiding and directing the doctor's hands as He has done all the other times.

Whenever you face the trials and difficulties of life, and whenever you face pain in your life, whether it's the pain of the human body or pain of relationships, know that God has been their in both situations. When it comes to the pain of the body think about when He was on the Cross, what He was feeling, and what He was thinking.  When it comes to the pain of relationships, think about when He found out that Judas Betrayed him.  Peter, denied him not once, or twice but three different times, and said He didn't know who He was, both where one of his 12 disciples.  Remember God loves you, and He is right their beside you through every situation in your life.
