Marg West Pain Hurts Pain cornes in aIl sorts of packages. It can be in our emnotions (mental illness), our bodies can have aIl kinds of pain. (headaches, back pain, pain pain pain) Its flot nice to constantly be in pain, pain causes us not to be able to function. If we have a headache we just want to be quiet and be by ourselves. Other kinds of pain cati be debilitating. We may even have to be bed ridden for rest or traction. Have you ever considered the fact that'pain cati be associated with fear. In Psalm 48:6 it says that fear took hold upon themn there, and pain, as a women in travail. The fear caused pain as a womnan giving birth. Now thaÊs no little bit of pain. Thaïs great pain. Webster says of travail: (referring to a torture device; very hard work, intense pain, agony. The fear caused pain like torture. "Pain is physical or mental suffering, caused by injury disease, tribulation." in saiah 13:8 again it is saying that fear caused pain. "They shal bc afraid, pangs and sorrows, shal Lake hiold of themn, they shall be in pain as a womený that travaileth." Maybe we can see in these passages of seripture that we need to try and get rid of some fears in our lives. Fear of flot pleasing others cati cause tension which can cause pain. When we are late for anl appointient etc. it causes tension - tension cornes pain. Fear of flot being up to someone elses opinion can cause pain maybe this type would be emotional hurt in our inner most being. God tells us in His Word Lo Fear Not. lsaiah 41:10, 43:5 (In these scriptures God is tll!ing us to fear flot He is with us.) Isaiah 43:1 - He's redeemed us, and called us by our naine. Isaiah 54:4 - Fear flot for thou shallflot be ashamed, nor confounded. God knew that fear was flot good for us. The only fear that is good for us is the fear of God and that is flot fear that causes pain. The fear of God is reverence toward Him and when we revere Goyd we have a fearless life. The opposite of fear is peace. In John 14:27 Jesus says, "He leaves us Fis peace, flot peace as the world give, let flot your heart be troubled, neither let it be. afraid." Trust in the Lord, and you can have a fearless and peaceful life. Remember Fear is the opposite of Faith. Fear is having faith in the dcvii. Comments or Questions, write Box 179, Orono.
