Devastated By His Love

Can pain and perfect love go hand in hand? Yes, says a song I have come to love. "I've been devastated by the words of men. Sometimes it feels like pain becomes my closest friend." sings Dennis Jernigan. He continues to talk about how sin is what truly hurts us. My favorite line says. "Lord, if suffering means winning, means death to flesh and sinning, lead me there in Your care." Suffering is no fun. Life just really, really hurts sometimes. But - pain purifies. Like gold, we must pass through the fire to reach our full potential.

"Lord, If suffering means winning, means death to flesh and sinning, lead me there in Your care."
