  3. Suffering-God’s Words Psalm 88 (Excerpts) I am deeply troubledand close to death I am as good as deadand completely helpless. You have put me in the deepestand darkest grave Each morning I prayto you, Lord. Why do you reject me?Why do you turn from me? My friends and neighborshave turned against mebecause of you,and now darknessis my only companion.

  4. Suffering Jesus Knows “Jesus cried out in a loud voice… ‘My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?’ “. Mark 15:34 God’s Intention “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good,for those who are called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28 God will use this suffering to your good and for the good of others!

  6. Suffering Pulling Back Layers of Deception • Shows us where our faith is weak to mature us. Jobs Testing by Satan. Job 1:9 • It shatters misconceptions we have of God (Like he is supposed to make us rich, keep us from pain, or protect our loved ones) Job 3:11 • Reflects what you believe deep down (The way you respond shows your attitude towards God)Job 21:22 • Humble Us. Mat. 23:12 Can bring us back to Basics!

  7. Surrendering YOURSELF God is in his rightful place. • “You will have no other gods before me” Exodus 20:3 Putting Myself in my rightful place • “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.” Mark 12:30 It is about Relationship!

  8. Grace- God’s Amazing Gift/Healing Grace • Grace is God’s favor, blessing, kindness given as a gift and not deserved or earned. All He has he lovingly gives us through our faith in Jesus Christ. God’s Grace is Sufficient (All we Need) • Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

  9. Grace “This is your worth to Me!” My Son for you “In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation.” 1 Peter 5:10
