*OUR DAILY MANNA DEVOTIONAL*
_A DEVOTIONAL BOOKLET FOR CHAMPIONS_
*DATE: TUESDAY 25TH JUNE, 2019*
*TOPIC: DON’T BURY THAT PAIN! SET IT FREE! – Part 2*
*BASIC SCRIPTURE: 2CORINTHIANS 1:1-6*
Let’s continue from yesterday’s devotional: “I spent most of that night plotting revenge, even swearing he would come home to an empty home left in shambles. The next day, I drained our savings account and even went as far as going to a lawyer. But as I stepped into the lawyer’s office, I knew I could not end things on those terms. When we said our vows it was “for better or for worse, in sickness or in health.” I had every reason-and God’s giving blessing – to walk out of my marriage that day. But I didn’t. When my husband came home, we had a very long heartbreaking talk. I even went as far as giving my ring back to him and told him he needed to prove his love to me. That was the weekend we began rebuilding. We began a couples’ devotional, and for the first time in thirteen years, we actually joined hands and prayed.
I would love to tell you that our recommitment to God, family, and to one another made everything easy, and that we sailed on calm seas into the sunset. But it was the worst storm I had ever gone through in my life. I found myself in bed for very long stints of time. I began cutting. I felt so numb, and the pain hurt so bad. I had lost all control over my life, and cutting seemed to mask some of my internal pain.
During our struggles, my mom passed away. By all accounts and definition, I was an orphan. I knew I needed help. My bitterness, shame and hate continued to grow like a wildfire inside of me. Then I began the *Healed and Set Free Bible Study.”* What a blessing it has been today as this couple bless thousands across the globe through the Bible study series! They turned their PAIN into their PURPOSE!
Oh! Today’s scripture Vs. 4 says: “ Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God.” God allows our PAIN in order to turn it to our PURPOSE for this generation! Wow! Hear this: *“Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light”* (Helen Keller). Life will give you whatever experience is most helpful for the evolution of your consciousness and so you must see PURPOSE in every PAIN He allows! Hear John Green: *“Beautiful are those whose brokenness gives birth to transformation and wisdom.”* My your wounds become your wisdom and may your frustration become your inspiration in Jesus name.

*Song 1: There’s Not A Friend*
1. There’s not a Friend like the lowly Jesus:
No, not one! No, not one!
None else could heal all our souls’ diseases:
No, not one! No, not one!
*Refrain:*
Jesus knows all about our struggles;
He will guide ‘til the day is done:
There’s not a Friend like the lowly Jesus:
No, not one! No, not one!
2. No friend like Him is so high and holy,
No, not one! No, not one!
And yet no friend is so meek and lowly,
No, not one! No, not one!
3. There’s not an hour that He is not near us,
No, not one! No, not one!
No night so dark, but His love can cheer us,
No, not one! No, not one!
4. Did ever saint find this Friend forsake him?
No, not one! No, not one!
Or sinner find that He would not take him?
No, not one! No, not one!
5. Was e’er a gift like the Saviour given?
No, not one! No, not one!
Will He refuse us the bliss of heaven?
No, not one! No, not one!
