Sermon 09/23/2018

When we are in the midst of pain and suffering, we rarely see the value in it, and we just want it to end.  We think the pain is not worth it, but what if we were to realize that everything we go through is worth it?  There's good that can come out of every situation in our lives.  Romans 8:28 reminds us that "all things work together for good to them that love God and are called according to His purpose."  The goal of our great God is to take all the bad in our lives, all the pain and suffering and hurt, and bring good out of it.
