When I wake up in the morning, the first thing The Gracious Mistress of
the Parsonage asks is, “How are your aches and pains today?” 

It's hard to ignore them when somebody is always talking about them. 

Then there's another aspect of this. I am learning that although these
aches and pains are a curse, they are also a blessing. I never knew 
that before. 

When The Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage asks me to do something I
don't want to do, I start complaining. “Oh, dear, I'd love to, but my 
shoulder hurts so much. I just can't do it.” 

I'm not sure she believes me or not, but it works most of the time, and
I'm happy with anything I can get. 

I might never get used to my aches and pains. But if I can turn them
into an advantage, that will be a very happy day for me. 

I then thought of one of my favorite verses in the Bible. James 1:2-4,
“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; 
Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let 
patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, 
wanting nothing.” 

A pain sometimes helps me to be patient and learn a new lesson of
patience in life.
