Is there's a point to pain?

 

There you are, minding your own business. You're lounging in a grassy meadow, as comfortable as can be, and you're daydreaming about a peanut butter and raspberry jam sandwich. Suddenly God is standing in front of you and He tells you He wants to give you something.
   

You know from personal experience that God's gifts are kind of tricky to handle, and hHis plans for you seldom work out the way you expect. And yet, you know God is good.

​

What do you do?
    

You could play dead or jump up and run screaming for the hills, but this is God. He knows what you're thinking. He knows what you need. He knows how to find you wherever you hide.

 

He also knows how to give great gifts.

 

Will you accept them?
