Thank God for somebody's problem!

I have to remind myself again and again that if somebody who is related to me has some problem (according to my viewpoint) and it seems very difficult for that person to get rid of the problem, or, change himself/herself, then, it is definitely a message from God to me.

"My son, I want to tell you that you have that problem, which I want you to realize and overcome it."

Then, if I realize it and somehow overcome it, then what I did would create some kind of indirect support for that person to overcome that problem. And when this whole thing is finished, we all would end up overcoming our problems with some unique personal experience of God's involvement in our lives.

Of course, if I don't choose this way, and choose the way to blame that person or at least get disappointed about that person without catching the message for me, that's another choice of life, too. But I wouldn't lose the precious chance in my limited period of life on earth. And if I was, after all, the main character of the drama with my best audience--God, then it would be better to choose this way, I believe.
