Everyday,problems keep occurring in our life. Do you agree with me? No matter during study time or working time,we sure have to face with some problems. Before marriage and after marriage,there are different problems which we have to solve them. No matter how old are we,we will still need to face some problems. Maybe it is called life,we cannot avoid from problems. What do you think? Do you think god is creating problems for us as challenges in our life to make us more tough in coping with life? Please share,thanks.

Just imagine a life with no problems... (imagining now?hehe) It would be sooo boring, dull, and just plain. You wouldn't be able to experience learning with your own mistakes. Problems do make you stronger coz it makes you realize that you can solve probs in life thus making you feel stronger and ready for more challenges in life. It also allows you to grow in all aspect of human development so u becum mor mature and learn new ideas or just anything in life coz the best learnings are the ones we gained in our lives.

Problems are what makes life interesting. If there is no problem, I think life will be dull and absurd. Problems are created for us to use our thinking and judgment. Humans are equipped with logical thinking to solve these problems. Problems are natural part of life. It is not created by God for us, but rather a product of being a human.

well i believe all of us have problems. it's just whether it's a big or small one. if there is no problem at all in life, it will indeed be a boring life. small problems like what to eat for lunch or where to go after work. big ones like the ever-increasing prices, the looming recession. i do enjoy the occasional challenging problem but most times i like easily solved ones. cheers ;p

Every person always has at least one problem. God does not create problems or wish these problems into existence. There is evil in our world. The important thing is to keep problems in perspective. If you take stock of your life, you will see far more good things than problems, even if some days it does't seem that way.

Yes, I agree with you. I am having everyday problems as I encounter my daily life. I think this is because we are also affected by other people's problems whether it be a family member or friends. I have not experience my life without any problems. Sometimes I worry too much about it that it's becoming harmful.I think God gives us problems so we can be strong. He gives us problems because during hardships in life and problems that some people only think, talk and ask help from God. So that is why people always get problems, no matter if you are rich or poor.

You are absolutely true buddy. In today's world, everyone is facing one type of problem or other, everyday. This world is tough to everyone, it doesn't care for anyone.
Currently, I am facing some problem too. It may not sound really a problem to you, friends, but someone can understand his own type of problem. Right?
There is some kind of tiff with my girl currently. Am not saying, that am in this situation for the first time, but a never exactly faced this kind of tiff, where I had to do nothing just seeing. So, this is my problem. What yours?

I have my own problem too but so far I try not to see it as a problem to me because I don't to make myself think too much and make my life miserable. Everyone has their own problems,I think there is any exceptions. It's all depends on how we see the problem to us. Thanks for the comment.

Yes every one have problems in our life but we have to find the solution for ourself to solve the problem, I dont think god is creating a problems to us because no God wants us to suffer with our problems, may be problems are arising because of us , may be we are not taking right decisions indoing things or devil might create a problem to us, God will certainly help us out to come out of that problem if we pray to him! But some times people say God create problem to us to test us but some how I dont feel this is right?

I don't think that God is creating problems for us.
Life happens. I am in a bad situation right now too. Nothing that my husband or I have any control over, but it just isn't going our way. We will deal with it and things always seem to work out.

Life is about learning in my mind. It is only through having and solving problems that we learn. What do we have to learn? I don't know because it is not an earthly lesson that we are learning but a spiritual one. One in which we need to find out who we really are. We live in a body, but we are not that body.
I don't think God is causing us problems, our problems seem to occur when we want to change the way things are and we stop accepting and learning.

You have your points there. It's true,problem always occur when we are trying to change our life but some how we cannot make our life static for the rest of the life without any changes. Maybe that's what we called learn from mistakes. Thanks for sharing.

I have come to the conclusion that nothing in life will ever be perfect all at the same time. For me, it is pretty much like a triangle. If 2 things in my life are going pretty well, then 1 thing isn't. If 2 things are really rotten, then 1 thing is just awesome. But it's never a 3 up kind of thing. I don't think God's objective in giving us challenges is to make us more tough. Life is all about balance. I believe he only gives us what he knows we can handle. I think of it like, I'm suffering from this problem because someone else isn't strong enough to deal with it. So we're all helping each other out. Does that make any sense at all?

It makes sense in some parts of our life. But in term of people will help each other to solve the problems,I only can agree to some extents. I have seen lots of people being selfish and try to protect themselves instead of helping out others. Thanks for the response.

Hello yenwie84,
No we create our own problems in life and God give us brains and power to work it out for ourselves, we argue with each other because disagree and in the end we come to an understanding so in everything we do we have to work at it, that is life, so God helps us in many ways that don't even know.

I think that problems and personal struggles are just a normal thing in life. There is usually something going on that can be challenging. Everyone has a different way of handling it I imagine. Yes, marriage can bring its ups and downs and being alone can do the same thing. Problems will always be there. We just have to face adversity sometimes and learn from it.

for me,I think when you have a problem its not really that God gave us the problem, i think its the choices we made. God gave us option/choices in life if we mistaken to choose the wrong decision then there's consequences behind it. And these problems make us learn and for us to be strong enough and wise enough to handle problems.

yes i have problems everyday, but i deal with them the best i can then push them out of the way. as long as you can keep calm and not let yourself get distraught over every little thing. thoes problems will become like a routine. that you have everyday and doesnt effect your mond body,doesnt bring stress nothing.
i think that god would not give us anything that we cannot handle. there for that is how i know that if there is a problem in my life. iot can be handled. so i try not to stress about it.and just do what i can. then im done with it and on with my life.
Yes i think that god gives them to give us a lesson,for somthing that will be in ourlives in the future.or he gives us the problem so we will become more appreciative, or more undertsanding or even more responsible and many more. every problem you come acrossed in your life, i beleive that is a reason for it wether you find out what it is next week next year or 10 years from now....

I think that in this day and age, it's hard to get through life without facing one problem or another. I think how we deal with them is the more important thing. Each problem I have had has made me stronger and more wiser in the end. So, while I would rather do without the problems I face, I'm glad that they make me think on things and about who I am as a person and that they make me a stronger individual in the end.
