Your Question:
What's the point of living if I'm in chronic pain?
Answer:
I can relate to your feelings of chronic pain and the question of what's the point of living. As someone who has experienced pain in the past, I can tell you that it's not always easy to find meaning in it. But, I've come to realize that pain can be a catalyst for growth and a reminder of our human brokenness. I've learned that pain can serve as a wake-up call, prompting us to seek outside assistance and turn to God in repentance and faith. It's a reminder that we need God and that we're not self-sufficient. In fact, I believe that God uses pain to teach us valuable lessons and to draw us closer to Him. As a pastor, I've seen this play out in the lives of many people who have faced chronic pain and have come out stronger on the other side. For me, the point of living is not just to alleviate pain, but to find purpose and meaning in it. I believe that God is sovereign and that He can use even the most difficult experiences to shape us into the people He wants us to be. So, even in the midst of chronic pain, I try to focus on the bigger picture and trust that God is working everything out for my good.
