Jabez was more honorable than his brothers. His mother had named him Jabez, saying, “I gave birth to him in pain.” Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.
1 Chronicles 4:9-10
Maybe if we looked at the things we are birthing in pain, we might could see the blessing God is giving us. Just because we have named it 'sorry' doesn’t mean it can’t be used by God.
