Scripture: I Timothy 6:17; Habakkuk 3:17-19

Topic: Suffering

Notes:

- God doesn’t want us to be so isolated we don’t enjoy anything - God did not put us here to improve the world but to invite people out of the world an into the kingdom - Christian activism is not the call of the church; we are to be a light, not enforcer - Habakkuk asks “Why don’t you answer my prayers” and “Are you not in control of everything?” - Your answer is at the appointed time.  Trust Him and you will find He does answer and is in charge of everything - If you trust God you will see it come to pass - Your situation has nothing to do with your relationship to God - We’re supposed to be happy because we are His children; rejoice in the Lord - If you call yourself a Christian, your life ought to be an enjoyable life - Hog hunting in Alabama... man almost died from tick bite - Your home is in more danger from a termite than a tornado - Satan uses ticks and termites, small things that will grow... like bitterness - Christian suffering is a process that brings us closer to Christ - No one gets away with anything
