I used to think the phrase “chronic pain” pertained primarily to physical symptoms — aching joints, relentless fatigue, involuntary movements, difficulty with everyday tasks, and more.

When our waiting feels like more than we can bear, God offers fresh courage to keep hoping in His love and power.
