I think I lifted this from a sermon or a Christian living book way back when I was in my 20s and a new believer. It's good advice if I remember to use it.
Faced with a horrible, impossible, devastating, ghastly situation?
Step back from the pain when you are able, and analyze through prayer:
1. What did I learn about me?
2. What did I learn about him, her, or them?
3. What did I learn about people in general?
4. What did I learn about You, God?
I found this in an old journal just before I was about to toss it. I don't think I'll toss it now.
