Helpful Quote:
“Pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pain: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world.” —C.S. Lewis
Discussion Questions:
- Can you think of a “storm” in your life where you could see after the fact how God used it for your good? How does that change your perception of other storms?
- Are you more likely to doubt that God has determined your destination, or that He is trustworthy with how you get there? How does this passage speak to you?
- Do you have an example in your life of how God has used your experience with pain (like Paul’s snakebite) to minister to others?
