2 Corinthians 4:8 NASB "we are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not despairing"Getting older means we will have new challenges! Today we read, that although we are afflicted, we can go on! As I wrapped my wrist, I realized that I wasn't even sure what I had done but the pain was there to let me know I did something to it! As we get older, things happen, we become afflicted in ways we never were before. The key is whether we let those afflictions keep us from moving forward. Even when we sin, we have a choice to either move towards repentance or give up. We can be crushed, perplexed but never despairing when we know Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. He is the doctor we go to when we are afflicted, to be healed, we just have to believe that He will heal us, one way or another. Let's not let the pain keep us from the gain! peace, tom
