Read Romans 8:28. What are some of the ways you have seen this be true in your life? Why is it still often hard to trust that God will use even seemingly bad things for the good of believers?
Read Lamentations 3:16-27. What about Jeremiah’s example here can be helpful to you when you are looking at those proverbial “puzzle pieces” that really just don’t seem to fit with what you thought life or God’s plan would look like?
