“Problems.” If you are not having one, you have had one. If you’re not in the middle of one now, chances are you know someone that is and that sometime down the road, that person will be you. Things don’t always go our way, right?

There is high value in seeing the value in problems.

Especially since we have determined they are inevitable for ourselves, and for others.

Here are two quick ways to shed a new light on a problem. Number one: Think about it… If no one had a problem, your work would be unnecessary. If you are looking for work, find ways that you can solve someone else’s problem. Inside of you, you have the capability to do and/or become exactly what someone needs to correct a situation, achieve a task or make them better. All of that has value for you and for others.

Secondly, if you are dealing with a problem of your own, it is time to reveal to yourself, and the world around you, exactly what you’re made of. Your true colors come out during conflict. You are only who you say you are, IF that is what comes out during your problem times. Are you a follower of Christ? How did he show up during the problem times in His life. Was He angry that things weren’t going the way He wanted? Use the problem to remind you of who you are. You are bigger than your problem. You are a conqueror. Move through the problem without creating new regrets. Make good decisions. Show up with confidence… not just in yourself but in the One to Whom you belong.

I hope this encourages you through whatever you may be going through or will go through. Love others through their problems and see how you can be of service. Love others even MORE through your own problems, especially if your problem is with them! Please feel free to share this with the share buttons and help connect others.
