What do you do when you are in pain? If your pain is physical do you immediately reach for medication whether over-the-counter or prescribed? What about emotional pain? What is your go to, immediate response?
Honestly, I don’t like being in pain. My first thought when encountering pain (physical, emotional, or spiritual) is that I want it to GO AWAY! Sometimes, in our attempts to make the pain go away we do things to mask the pain, not realizing that the source of the pain remains. Therefore, the pain is likely to come back if the cause is not removed (if possible).
I want to share with you a few lessons I have learned, and continue to learn, about dealing with pain.
- Pain is generally a danger signal that something is “wrong”.
- Ignoring the pain may cause the problem to get worse.
- Acknowledging the pain is an important step in the healing process.
- Discovering the reason for your pain will help you find solutions to remove the pain or at least to deal with the pain in a way that is productive.
- Doing the work to move through the pain to healing may be challenging but is worth the process to find your joy!
- Your journey through pain to abundant life can be used to encourage someone else who is suffering.
