      1. Suffering –
 
          Teaches us to hate sin
           Teaches us to see our own sin
             It drives us to God
              It conforms us to the image of Christ
               It drives sin out of our lives            
                It confirms that we are children of God
                 It produces joy
                  It makes us long for heaven
 
      2. Struggling with Temptation –
 
          It drives us to pray
           It shatters our spiritual pride
            It shows us where we are vulnerable to sin
             It helps us to help others
              It drives us to the Word of God
               It makes us desire heaven
 
      3. Sin Itself
 
         It encourages humility
          It brings about brokenness
           It brings about self-distrust
            It drives us to God
             It makes us long for heaven
              It allows God to display His mercy and grace
               It generates praise for God’s forgiveness
