Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose (NIV).
Prayer: Thank the Lord that when frustrating or bad things happen, somehow, at sometime, he works things together for good. Ask for the wisdom and faith to believe his promise in Romans 8:28.
Action: When bad things happen, call time out, settle down, then go to God in prayer, trusting him to work things out for good according to his perfect timing. (For discussion questions, see page 249 in Appendix A.)
