Types of Pains:

1. Pain of Failure - putting your all into something and it not being successful.

2. People can cause pain - throughout the bible we see dysfunctional families and God's redeeming power.

Pain Management:

1. Mary (mother of Jesus) was prepared. Angels and prophets prepared her.

2. Reflect and Be Thankful - she remembered more of the good than the sad about Jesus.

3. Don't get stuck - God brought people around Mary that helped her through Jesus on the cross and life afterwards.
