Hold Me – It Hurts!
“Nothing shall be
able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
–Romans 8:39
Suffering can
become so intense at times that we don’t know how we can take any more pain.
It’s in these moments that Jesus
reassures us of His presence and sustains us, even though for reasons we do
not understand the hurt is not taken away.

That’s a glimpse of what Jesus does
for those who trust Him in their suffering.
He draws us to Himself and says that He will be with us in our pain, for
nothing can separate us from His love (Rom.8:39).
How often we cry out for release,
but no relief comes. The pain persists, but we sense God’s presence. Later, as
we look back, we can see how the Lord was with us, caring for us, meeting our
deepest needs.
No
matter what painful situation you may face today, remember that Jesus is
holding you. So, smile… it’ll pass. JJ
