A few years back when I was much younger,  I came across a very popular devotional 'Everyday with Jesus'  authored by Late Selywn Hughes. In one of the daily write ups I read he addressed a very important issue which helped change my life in a very profound way. He spoke about  how to handle pain, which is what I want to share in this post In life we know that because we live in an imperfect world, we are bound to experience pain from time to time. Sometimes it could be physical and at times psychological which is where my emphasis will lie.

While working one day, I noticed the baby in the womb of the woman I was scanning was dead and one of the signs apart from the heart beat being absent was the fact that the skull bones began to fall apart and that sparked up this thought in me that for anything to function optimally, life must be present. Life is indeed a gift. It makes everything come  alive and beautiful. Anywhere life is missing, all we begin to see is decay and the falling apart of things.

Don't waste it, use it profitability.    Photo credit: whattoexpect.com
