God brings hope to pain

Sometimes life is painful. It doesn’t matter whether the pain is physical, mental or both. Pain can bring on anxiety and fear. it makes us question if there is anything that can help us. We wonder where God is or if he is there at all. But even in the darkest pain there is hope and hope comes from god.  God turns us to hope and helps us learn from the pain. We are like pottery made beautiful by the fire of the kiln.
