The truth about pain

Mary Metzner Trammell

It's so important to tell the truth about pain. And once you understand even a speck of that truth, you never again really believe in pain—at least not in the same way. You never again feel so intimidated by it. In fact, you feel newly liberated. And you begin to understand Christ Jesus' words "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free" (John 8:32).

Just what is the truth about pain? It's simply this. There exists a reality that completely eliminates pain—the totally lovable and potent reality called God. This ever-with-us God, the one and only Principle of the universe, is Spirit. Our salvation from pain lies in knowing for a fact that we live in the allness of Spirit. That we live forever in the holy comfort of God's love.
