Sometimes we must feel pain in ORDER to find healing

When to need surgery,  let's say on your knee, do you notice that the surgeon cuts your skin to get to the knee? Was the skin the problem? No. However, in order to reach the problem, the skin had to endure pain.

Likewise, when God is helping you, sometimes you won't feel like you're being helped. You'll feel like you're just facing "unnecessary" pain,  like the skin. 

Also, sometimes certain people, ministries, habits, lifestyles, and such will need to be disrupted, cut off, and revamped in order for your blessings to manifest...(so your knee, for example, can be healed).

Maintain knowledge and the right perspective.
