Hello and welcome to Pastor Rick's Daily Home.

There are times in our lives when we experience pain.

It's unavoidable, but God can use your pain to bring about good.

Today we begin a series called Where Is God When It HURTS?

In this series, Pastor Rick shows us the five choices you can make to benefit from your

pain and the four ways you can use the pain in your life to help others heal.

In just a few moments, we're going to tell you about a life-changing Bible study from

Pastor Rick called Unshakable.

This study based on the book of Daniel will help you handle life's most unexpected circumstances

and extreme pressures.

Right now, here's Pastor Rick Warren with part one of a message called How God Can Use

My Pain For My Good.

Pain in life is inevitable.

There's no such thing as pain for your life.

But most people waste their pain.

And they don't learn anything from it.

And they don't use their pain to help other people.

But you know that I strongly believe in never wasting a hurt, never wasting a pain.

In the Bible, God tells us to learn from every experience in our life.

And he also, by the way, commends pastors specifically.
