5 Ways God Uses Problems

Got this article from e-mail. Think this is really good and want to share it…

            5 Ways God Uses Problems

The problems you face will either defeat you or develop you -
depending on how you respond to them.

Unfortunately, most people fail to see how God wants to use problems
for good in their lives. They react foolishly and resent their
problems rather than pausing to consider what benefit they might
bring.

Here are five ways God wants to use the problems in your life:

1. God uses problems to DIRECT you.

Sometimes God must light a fire under you to get you moving.
Problems often point us in a new direction and motivate us to
change. Is God trying to get your attention? "Sometimes it takes a
painful situation to make us change our ways." Proverbs 20:30

2. God uses problems to INSPECT you.

People are like tea bags…if you want to know what’s inside them,
just drop them into hot water! Has God tested your faith with a
problem? What do problems reveal about you? "When you have many
kinds of troubles, you should be full of joy, because you know that
these troubles test your faith, and this will give you patience."
James 1:2-3

3. God uses problems to CORRECT you.

Some lessons we learn only through pain and failure. It’s likely
that as a child your parents told you not to touch a hot stove. But
you probably learned by being burned. Sometimes we only learn the
value of something…health, money, a relationship… by losing
it. "It was the best thing that could have happened to me, for it
taught me to pay attention to your laws." Psalm 119:71-72

4. God uses problems to PROTECT you.

A problem can be a blessing in disguise if it prevents you from
being harmed by something more serious. Last year a friend was fired
for refusing to do something unethical that his boss had asked him
to do. His unemployment was a problem - but it saved him from being
convicted and sent to prison a year later when management’s actions
were eventually discovered. "You intended to harm me, but God
intended it for good… Genesis 50:20

5. God uses problems to PERFECT you.

Problems, when responded to correctly, are character builders. God
is far more interested in your character than your comfort. Your
relationship to God and your character are the only two things
you’re going to take with you into eternity. "We can rejoice when we
run into problems… they help us learn to be patient. And patience
develops strength of character in us and helps us trust God more
each time we use it until finally our hope and faith are strong and
steady." Romans 5:3-4
Here’s the point:

God is at work in your life - even when you do not recognize it or
understand it. But it’s much easier and profitable when you
cooperate with Him.

Hari ini hari buruh…kok di sini ga libur sih?!? Di Singapore libur gitu..curaaaannnnggg (loh? loh? hehhehe ga pentiiinggggg!!!)

Lagi mikir…ternyata hidup itu emang pilihan, dan sering banget kita dihadapin kepada pilihan yang sulit. Lebih susah lagi kalo kita sendiri masih ga tau apa efek dari pilihan kita itu. Ya ada sih dikit dikit kelihatan arahnya tapi masih di permukaan kali ya.  Tadi pagi masih ga bisa nentuin pilihan tapi akhirnya saya lepasin juga.  Berat sih kalo inget inget perjuangan, tenaga dan waktu yang udah terbuang, tapi rasa rasanya kalo bener dapet pun engga mau juga. Jadi ya sudahlah, saya relakan.  Mana tadi sempet ditelponin ke kantor, ke rumah dan ke HP!!! Jadi ga enak deh…tapi ya udah it’s the decision.

Semakin hari semakin banyak pikiran ya? Hehehe ga tau deh, mabok juga rasanya kalo begini sih.  Pusing ah.  Tapi rasanya masih ada kesempatan buat gue lah. Masa sih gue ga bisa apa apa? Gue ga percaya juga.

Lagi nungguin kiriman buku Bo Sanchez, gue pengen baca itu buku deh. Kayanya bagus… :)

Akh..gue mau pulang dulu deh, ngantuk mana udah gelap pula…
Oke deee….
