Pain, suffering, and loss are unavoidable parts of life, but Scripture gives us both an explanation for their origin and a path to find purpose through them. Pastor Jason reminds us, while God did not create pain, He allows it within the framework of free will—and uses it to draw us closer to Him, shape our character, and reveal our purpose. Even in our deepest pain, God is near, and through Christ, we find hope, healing, and eternal restoration.
