Hubby always says-Courage is the power to face your difficulties. It comes from the reserves of your mind that are more powerful than any of your outside circumstances.
When you recognize that you are bigger than your problems, you gain the courage necessary to overcome anything. Your obstacles will look large or small to you according to whether you are large or small.
Courage is the capacity to confront what can be imagined. It gives you the ability to rise above reality.
[b]This applies to all of us, so ‘You are more important than any of your problems.’

You are a lot mightier than any problems that may come on your way. Strong faith with god with the help of your family and friends are the best weapon against it.

This is something that I've only started to realize in my life in the past year or year and a half. The reason that I started to realize that there are times in our lives that we have problems that we really don't think that we will be able to get through. My husband's battle with cancer has showed me that I need to think beyond the here and now and that I need to also know that if I have the courage to try to face the problems that I have in my life, then I will be able to make it through everything.

Your husband is correct.Even if some people say that it's impossible,if you have the courage & determination to get over your problem,then it will be done to you.

I think that is a wonderful thing to remember when we are faced with problems. If there was a way to make the problems seem smaller, they would also seem easier to tackle. I like to dissect problems in to pieces when I can and take a bit at a time when they seem big. I also like to get them before they grow.

Good day Kalyni2011,
Honestly your post have somehow given the courage. As I am feeling low right now. And for the past days, I am hitting by depression. That, although I am really praying it hard to God, asking for the solutions, still, the feeling of depression is hitting inside of me. Wishing that God will stay beside me to uplift me and put a smile on my face again.

Your hubby is a very wise man. I feel the same way… I feel like we have to be like ships in a storm.. instead of running away from our problems, we have to turn and face them and deal with them. Life goes on and problems come and go. We will always have problems… but we become stronger as we become good problem solvers.

you take some of your problems seriously but not to the point that your allowing the situation to drag you or immobilizes u. Dont forget to smile it away from time to time. No one can encourage yourself more than you do. Keep yourself on the right track and ask help from God and/or from others if u feel like you're givin up.

I think differently. I believe that whatever happens to us God is aware of it and if we depend on the Almighty we will find a way to sort out our problems. Worrying will only distance us from solving our problems as I believe that worrying means having no trust in God. Why should God help those who have no trust in Him?

when you are in a very frustating situation, chances are you give up and let that problem eat you. Whenever i am preoccupied with stress because of problems, i pray to God for strength. With Him, nothing is impossible and no other thing is bigger than God. With this thought, i believe that God being with me, no problem is bigger than us.

i totally agree with you!
cause i'm always confident to myself no matter what it may be.you know what you think determins what you do,so letting yourself full of confidence will make you strong to some extend. and you will find you can overcome difficulties easier than what you ever thought. then we say "you are more important than your problems".if you think you can, you can do it.however if you think you can not,you really can't even if you can!

I believe in this.
People tend to get overwhelmed by their problems, they forget to step back a little and look at the bigger picture. They should have the confidence that they can solve whatever problems they face and believe that they are not alone. they can always ask others for help. people should also know how to recharge and remove unnecessary stress from their lives in order to be more capable in solving their problems.

Courage can help us to cope with our situation and do the what is needed. If we lack courage, how can we suceed? So it is important that we fill our minds with the courage whenever we feel that problems are becoming like mountains. There is nothing wrong in doing our best and it always starts from the courage we have.

Yes.whatever u said is correct.everybody should have courage to face any problem.But the thing is if anybody gets problem means, First they will get upset.Because at that time,the things those will come into our mind are all pushing us back into sad mood.That time people will not think about courage and all.They will only think about the problems.There are only few people who will face problems courageously.So everyone should try to face any problem with a smile on face.

I agree in a sense. I think what matters more is how we handle these problems and circumstances that sometimes can slow us down. But life is so much bigger than petty every day problems. I think we just need to do our best to be happy. Happy MyLotting!

True, because we are a child of God and we are precious and we are somebody in the Lord's eyes... We must also be grateful for problems because that whats makes life all about we cannot knw happiness if we cannot overcome a problem. Problems will make us a better person if we overcome them.
