Make friends with the problems in your life!


                                                                               


I would like to share something I read earlier today. It is from a book filled with devotionals and words of encouragement. It is a great reminder of what is truly important, and how to deal with problems in your life.

Each and everyone of us has problems from one day to the next. I hope this can shed some light on how to better handle them, accept them, and deal with them.

Make friends with the problems in your life. Though many things feel random and wrong, remember that I am sovereign over everything. I can fix everything into a pattern for good, but only to the extent that you trust Me. Every problem can teach you something, transforming you little by little into the masterpiece I created you to be. The very same problem can become a stumbling block over which you fall if you react with distrust and defiance. The choice is up to you, and you will have to choose many times each day whether to trust Me.
The best way to befriend your problem is to thank Me for them. This simple act opens your mind to the possibility of benefits flowing from your difficulties. The next step is to introduce them to Me, enabling Me to embrace them in My loving Presence. I will not necessarily remove your problems, but My wisdom is sufficient to bring good out of every one of them.

Romans 8:28 AMP;1 Corinthians 1:23-24
