God is preparing you.

Main message: God uses the difficult processes in our lives as preparation, not punishment, shaping who we become so we can fulfill his calling. We should reframe annoyances and trials as divine appointments that equip us to impact others and advance our assignment.

Key points:

• Life's struggles may be God preparing us rather than punishing us.
• God is often more concerned with our character (who we become) than with our immediate circumstances or destination.
• Reinterpret aggravations as divine appointments rather than constant annoyances.
• Trials can be opportunities for God to work through us into other people's lives.
• The preparation we endure benefits the assignment or calling God has for us.
