📖 SERMON TITLE: "Don't Waste the Pain" Scripture: Romans 8:28 "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose." Message: Pain is something we all face. Broken hearts. Disappointments. Betrayals. Delays. Loss. But in God's hands, pain is not pointless — it has a purpose. God never wastes pain. What the enemy meant for evil, God can turn for your good (Genesis 50:20). The tears you cried in secret, the battles you fought silently — God saw them all. And He is still working behind the scenes. Pain can make you bitter or better. It can push you away from God or draw you closer to Him. The choice is yours. Joseph was thrown into a pit, betrayed, and forgotten — but God raised him to a palace. Jesus suffered the cross — but through it, salvation came to the world. Whatever you're going through now — give it to God. He can turn your scars into stories. Your mess into a message. Your trial into a testimony. 🙌 Let your pain birth purpose. Let it deepen your faith. Let it shape your calling. Today's prayer: "Lord, I give You my pain. I may not understand it now, but I trust Your plan. Use it for Your glory. Amen." — #GodIsWorking #PurposeInPain #FaithOverFear #SpiritualStrength #TrustGodAlways
