IS IT JUST SIN?? Pain is something we all must deal with.We have physical , emotional, spiritual pain...It is not unique to a few...It will show up at everyones doorstep..sooner or later....it may knock more times at one than another.....but we all get it...we all have to let it enter...let it fill our hearts and rack our souls.. and we grow up through it...and we have more joy when we have known pain... and there is a season for it....but when we linger too long....and hide under it to excuse ourselves from life...Or let it overcome us.... and it hinders us from service....then it becomes sin.... are you hiding in the death of a marriage....the death of a dream...the death of a child ... a loved one....the loss of a leg....the hindrence of a disease..... there is a season for that pain...and then we must go on... with the assignment that the Lord has given us.... or that pain becomes sin..... has the day ever been as dark as the night has your heart ever jumped at the sign of the light but as your heart leapt....and your spirit arose dark clouds came by.... and smothered you close til you could not breathe the breath of life and you allowed the pain to steal the light.... so, was it a cloud... was it...... or was it sin..... has the world looked black.....has the struggle strengthened..... does it all look beyond repair..... have you hidden under a bed of despair... ...and just how long can you stay under there... pain has it's season.... but be aware... you have been fooled you have closed your eyes to the world around you.... to the needs...and the cries.. of the lost.... of the hurt....of the ones left to die.... . because of the pain is it just sin is it just sin that keeps you from shining the light.... . .. from the light shining through your darkest night is it just sin by Cindy Riemer Copyright 1999 © Email: Calgon@angelfire.com
