How to Handle Life's Hurts (1 of 6)
Series: Help for Hurting People

Psalm 34:17-20
If you have your Bible this morning, I want you to turn to Psalm 34:18. I am going to use several different Psalms today as we move through the message.

All of us know that these bodies have within the principle of death or the principle of sin and because of that we are going to hurt physically from time to time. Nobody is excluded from physical pain in this life. God did not promise that. The Lord Jesus knew what it was to suffer phy ...
