Thought #1 – Pain Is Real
•Physical pain
•Mental pain
•Emotional pain
•Spiritual pain
Thought #2 – Running Away Doesn’t Ease Pain
•If we run to another location, the reminders of the pain may be unseen, but they still exist
•If we anesthestize with drugs, alcohol, shopping, porn, gambling, food, or other addictions, the pain is right there waiting when we come down from our high.
•If we hide away from people and places, the pain holds us captive.
Thought #3 – Dealing With The Pain Brings Healing And Freedom
•Feel.
•Deal.
•Heal.
•Peace.
•Freedom.
•Lamentations 3:40: Let us examine our ways and test them and let us return to the Lord.
•Philippians 2:13: For it is God who works in you to will and to act according to His good purpose
A few final points every woman needs to remember:
1.Running away from pain doesn’t ease it.
2.Anesthetizing pain doesn’t make it go away.
3.Hiding from pain only makes us captives to it.
4.We must feel the pain and deal with the pain so we can heal from the pain.
The thing to remember here is that you can escape pain and trauma once and for all without having to hide in fear or shame.
