Our lives are filled with difficulties

Allow me to begin by distinguishing between problems and challenges.
While a problem is something that portrays a negative picture, a challenge is something that empowers. We cause our problems and become enslaved by the word.

While some problems, such as natural disasters and unexpected life-threatening diseases, are beyond an individual's control, the majority of other problems are self-created. Today's wildfires are the result of a small spark that went unnoticed yesterday. The majority of today's problems are leftovers from yesterday's unresolved issues.
Allow me to share some wise remarks to gain a better understanding of why the human race faces difficulties...
Life's difficulties are not intended to suffocate you. Indeed, they serve you by assisting you in discovering who you are. Challenges make you do something. When you overcome them, they make you want to do even more, which leads to even more growth.

When you were a child and began to crawl, your mother would position the toy slightly away from you and challenge you to reach for it.
Each time you were going to reach for a toy, she moved it further away from you. Was it an act of cruelty or an act of love, acting as a catalyst for your growth? When you took your first small steps, your mother would always remain a bit further away from you to encourage you to approach her. True, there are instances when you fall and injure yourself, but isn't that a natural part of growing up?

You comprehend the value of light when you emerge from the darkness, as well as the value of the sun following a dark, stormy night.
Without difficulties, life would be meaningless. However, what most people do not realize is that every difficulty, every barrier is a challenge. We should approach a problem in the same way that a mountain climber approaches a mountain. The greater the height and difficulty of the journey, the greater the chance for growth and the larger the reward at the summit. We should develop the ability to thrive in the face of adversity. Challenges can bring our finest selves to the surface.
To be adverse to problems is to be averse to life. Being problem-solving-oriented corresponds to being life-oriented. Problems enter your life to communicate a message. If you run, you will miss the message. You can obtain it if you desire it.

Similarly, existence constantly tests her favorite creation, man, for him to discover what he is made of.
I hope this clarifies your situation. Additionally, if you would like to leave a comment, you are welcome to do so. Thank you, remain safe at all times, and may God bless you with a pleasant day ahead.- Lowa

I agree. Difficulties are always part of our lives but these things make us even stronger in life. We just have to always have faith in Him and pray always.
