Seasons of Pain

Hey thanks for tuning in today to the alive and well Podcast.  I’m a pastor at Awaken Church in Rome, NY and these short messages are the summary of my sermons each week.  It’s my hope and prayer that today you find inspiration in something you hear only so that you can live out your life as a fully devoted follower of Jesus empowered by the Holy Spirit!  

 

Every human being will wrestle with the corruption of sin, the carnal temptations of our soul, disease, pain, tragedy, death, abuse, persecution, aging, weakness, loss, grief, sorrow, betrayal rejection and unfulfilled expectations.  the Bible tells us that pain in suffering is not reserved only for the unrighteous, but many are the afflictions of the righteous. Today I reflect on the dangers and rewards of a Painful season.
