“Pain as Opportunity”
We have choices in our response to pain emotional or physical. It is the preferred method to be fully aware of the pain and let it serve to awaken the healing power of God in every part and each cell of our being. Facing pain with awareness is not easy.
Realizing pain can be no simple matter; nevertheless, how we decide to heal is important to our wholeness and well being. We want to respond in a way that does not add to the problem or worsen our condition.
Furthermore, when we focus on the spiritual power and presence here within consciousness and body, we begin to heal and have relief. Also there is guidance that comes with the wakened spiritual Source of our body, mind and expression. We have divine potential and energy at hand to heal and uplift pain into new awareness and blessings of wisdom.
What’s more, there may be times when we need medical support. It is always wise if medicine is administered to know what it is and does. We need to be an advocate of our own healing and health. If medicine is necessary, I usually ask for the kindest for the body. The medical community is on our side especially with pain. Sometimes they may prescribe non prescription alternatives. They are careful in prescribing pain medication.
In addition, with any medical intervention we can include prayer, meditation, and do healthy things to promote the healing power of the body. We can ask our faith community to pray with us. We may choose to open to our friends and family reaching out for support so we do not feel alone in any health challenge or painful situation. Thank you God for healing life, relief from pain and the divine power and presence with and as each one of us, Amen.
