Although I'm still experiencing pain from the shingles outbreak last October (almost ten months ago), I discovered a fun phenomenon:
When I'm doing something I enjoy, like sharing God's Word, singing, exercising, or gardening, I'm not aware of the pain.
Wow.
I'm sure there's a word for this in the medical field. To me it shows the power of the brain God created for us.
When we engage in an activity that makes us happy, we feel no pain. As we focus on what we love to do, that feeling of pleasure pushes out the feeling of pain.
Amazing.
What makes you happy?
What activity frees you from pain?
This is so true, I know it from experience. I am sorry to hear you are still not well. I pray complete restoration and healing over you, in the name of Jesus!
