God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.
If God can bring blessing from the broken body of Jesus and glory from something that's obscene as the cross, He can bring blessing from my problems and my pain and my unanswered prayer.
God will give us the strength to be able to handle things. I mean, you can try to do it on your own, and sometimes you can pull off some stuff, but in the long run, it's much easier with Him by our side.
When trouble comes, focus on God's ability to care for you.
When we struggle, as so many do, in grinding poverty, or when our enemies prevail against us, or when sickness is not healed, the enemy of our souls can send his evil message that there is no God or that if He exists He does not care about us.
God wants to bless us where we are.
God has his plans and his reasons. Sometimes we are supposed to go through things so that we learn lessons.
We all suffer. It's part of life. The blessing is - while evil exists, Divinity does, too, and it is stronger.
Indeed, there is nothing like suffering to remind us how much we need God. What good news that His purpose and plan for our lives moves in a different direction from ours!
God sometimes does try to the uttermost those whom he wishes to bless.
