When a sick or possessed person was brought to Him, He healed that person. Women still suffer pains at childbirth. The ground still brings forth thorns and thistles. Mankind toils and sweats. The present age brings suffering.
All creation groans.
The Lord chastens those whom He loves. But my Substitute will deliver me from every evil work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. The faithful Lord will strengthen you and protect you from all evil. Paul could bear the thorn in his flesh because God's grace was sufficient for him. Jesus IS mankind's Substitute.
