God Never Wastes Pain (James 1:2-4)

January 12, 2022

Scripture teaches us that God never wastes pain. Meaning, the Lord always uses the pain of trials and adversity to accomplish His purposes. And what are His purposes? His glory and our good. Yes, pain hurts, but only a gracious God who is in complete control of all things can bring out a transcendent good from pain, hurt and sorrow. We therefore do not rejoice because it hurts; instead we rejoice over what God is going to do with that hurt.


Our Scripture focus will be James 1:2-4.
