Well I am not really brave. I hate problems. I would not want problems to come into my life but that is part of life and I consider them trials that make me stronger each time. You know what there is one thing that really make me brave in face of trials. It is the mere thought that God is with me always. When I have problems this is when I hold even closer to God. I believe His word, His promises. Some of the inspiring verses in the Bible that are very helpful are: First Corinthians 10:13 “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.” James 1:12 assures us, “Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.” Psalm 55:22 : Give your worries to the Lord, and he will take care of you. He will never let good people down (James 1:2-4,12)."Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing." "Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love Him" Colossians 1:11 tells us that we are strengthened by Him to “great endurance and patience”

I am. Of course, I become brave because I know many people support me and would back me up. Having real friends and a great family would complement really. After all, they are the ones whom you'll get your strength from. Be brave and face all problems with God's guidance, above all.

Hello dong. What is life without problems. It's always there. Sometimes small and sometimes big. What I do is, I always pray that I could carry all the problems and troubles that I'll be encountering and I could go on with my life. God is my refuge. Good evening dong.

Hmmm ,i do agree with you that the problems we are faceing shoud be settle when we faced it ... It's said that there is not a problem you can not solve and it's just a one you want to get through or not ... I think ,when we face a problem we shoud get ready to fight against it ... and we will be stronger after we finishing it ... So ,guys ,just be more brave and be ready for getting stronger~~~! Best wishes~~~

I would say I am strong enough to face a problem as we don't have so much choice when it comes! We either face it or ignore it. And I always choose to face it. And I know that it's not always easy to deal with it.

I am trying to face all my problems bravely though I must accept that there are some situations that I tried to ignore my problems which I know is a sign of weakness. But now I am trying to face all of it and trying to solve each one of it just to make my life more meaningful.

I feel that I am a brave person. I have faced a lot of adversity in my life and I am sure a lot of other people have too. It all depends on how you handle things. Through experience I have gained more strength. I have also gained some insight too. As long as you learn things from a bad situation it can be easier to move on and be able to face future problems.
