Problems:

¬Some think that they are to fix all of them
¬Problems are perceived to be:
–a p____________ for some past failure,
–the willing a_________ of the intervention of God in our lives,
–or the mischief of S_________.
If Problems don’t exist, then we can never realize the ____________ of _________________ them!
¬With the p____________ of every problem there is the p________ to be used in a mighty way!
¬It is impossible to see the Lord’s plan in our lives when our eyes are on ___________!
¬The real test of a Christians p__________ is witnessed when one finds himself under p____________, or facing p______________!

–God is p______________ us from sin
–We need to be ‘s___________” as believers
–We need to learn to lean on the Lord alone
–It keeps us f____________ on the goal…
The ultimate reason that suffering comes into our lives is so that we can become “__________ ________” for others.
