The Best Way to Solve a Problem

You have a problem and it's got to be solved!  So, problem-solvers that we are by nature, we go to work on a solution.  Occasionally, all of us feel the need for reinforcement, and that's when we inform God in prayer as to how He should handle the situation.  I've discovered through trial and error, and more error than I would like to admit, that quite often my solution is at cross‑purposes with God's solution.
