I know what you are thinking. You are thinking that my headache is not nearly as bad as my wife's headache. All I can say is, how do you know? One person's headache is very real to them, as real as another person's headache is to them. The problem with my headache on the highway was, I could not take any medication, lie down and put a heating pad on my neck and go to sleep. I had to stay awake and watch where in the world I was going even though I was not going very fast. Gladly would I have traded my headache on the highway for her headache on the couch. Of course, there is always the idea that I cause headaches. And I suppose there's not much I can do about that. Except, maybe, try not to cause a headache. But when you're person like me, you don't know you're causing a headache until you've caused that headache. What would life be without headaches either getting them or giving them? I suppose that's what life is all about. If you think you can live your life without getting or giving a headache you are in for a truly severe migraine. As I thought about this I was reminded of a very special verse of Scripture. “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away” (Revelation 21:4). In this life you can't get away from headaches, but I have something to look forward to and that is what God has for me. Tweet
