Devotional: Why Does It Hurt ?

Scripture: “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” – Psalm 147:3

Pain is part of life, but it is not permanent. Sometimes we feel hurt because of loss, betrayal, or disappointment. God allows our struggles not to punish us, but to teach us, strengthen us, and draw us closer to Him.

When it hurts, don’t hide from your feelings. Bring them to God in prayer. Let Him heal what is broken and give you peace that surpasses understanding.
