so have you ever in your life gone
through certain challenges issue
struggles that maybe you’re sitting
there saying I have no idea how to go
through this it’s just so difficult I
feel lonely
you’re almost vulnerable you don’t have
somebody to talk to sometimes you can’t
even talk to your spouse your friend
your relatives and you ask the question
and say why is God putting me through
this you ever asked that question before
and you kind of don’t have the answer
for it well my pastor at the church I go
to Dudley Rutherford shared five reasons
why we’re suffering and I thought it was
the best explanation I ever heard on
suffering I was compelled to shared with
it on two minutes with Pat and here’s
what he talked about number one reason
why we suffer is because we sent we did
something wrong right so when what you
say and what you do are not aligned we
struggle internally number two somebody
else may have sinned and you’re
suffering for it your kids your wife
your husband your spouse your brother
your sister your employee they did
something and it’s bothering you you
know your kids smoke the cigarette at 13
years old and your bother about your
daughter’s dating somebody you don’t
like your bother by your suffering you
lose a sleep over it but you didn’t do
anything wrong it’s a sin on the other
side number three nobody did anything
wrong we’re talking about an earthquake
took place a part of your house came
down you need to spend twenty thousand
dollars hurricane happen something’s
happened to the house you need to spend
ten thousand dollars you didn’t do
anything wrong nobody did anything wrong
number four the adversary is testing you
and sometimes you you know we need to
realize that the adversary does not want
you to fulfill your prophesy of doing
what God puts you up here to do
something big with your life he’d rather
see you fail he’d rather see you give up
he’d rather should give up your marriage
your relationships your friendships your
business your career everything out
there he would prefer you give up and
throw in the towel and last one is my
favorite one is sometimes we are going
through suffering because God is using
that to mature us and what that means to
me is this have you ever had a track
record on how you handled certain
challenges with somebody and you always
reacted a certain way and all
sudden you change and you improved and
you matured and you walk away and say
I’m very proud of yourself on the way
you handled yourself that’s a sign of
maturity that’s a sign of how we handle
certain issues and suffering in our
lives better than ever then good things
are around the corner for us if we
mature so my message of the week to you
is sometimes we have to struggle or if
you want to call it suffer in order to
learn in order to grow it’s my message of the week
through certain challenges issue
