Challenges Are Part Of Life.

No one wants challenges. No one wants to experience any challenge in life. If you want to graduate from the school of success even though it's a continuous cycle, you have to deal with challenges. There is no success without challenges. They don't have to be pleasant but challenges make us mature in life. We can't do without challenges in life and everyone would feel theirs differently.

We feel it differently and because we can't understand what others are going through doesn't mean we have to invalidate what they are going through. Because we overcame ours at a better time frame doesn't mean everyone would do the same. If we can help to speed things up for others, by all means, let's do that but never judge them or rush them due to how you went through yours. Everyone deals with things differently and reality dawn on everyone at different intervals.

There is no unique challenge, so to speak because as they say, there is nothing new under the Sun. It might be new to you based on exposure but in a different part of the world, there are those going through that same thing which no one knows about. It becomes more amplified because it happens to us.

We all have to face one thing or the other in this life. Someone somewhere must have gone through what we are going through. Life sometimes deals with all of us whether we want it or not. Even the Bible told us that "...when trouble of any kind..." It can be anything; martial, finance or anything. Some things are happening to you in life that you didn't pray for. You don't have to pray for them.

Only the dead can be exempted from challenges. Each challenge is sometimes designed based on the strength we have. We sometimes want a pity party rather than try to see how to get better with it. That challenge is not to be the end of you but for you to understand what it is and learn how to overcome it but I admit, in the process of it, it's never easy to see and understand it which is why we need to have a positive disposition to life while understanding that life happens.

Until your faith is tested, your endurance has no chance to grow. Your faith and character cannot grow if you don't go through challenges. Confession is different from the reality of having to go through things. Some things happen to nudge us in the right direction. If some people have all the things they need, they won't even remember God or be kind to others or do certain things they are doing now. If you go through challenges and you don't learn anything from them, those challenges would always come back.

Allow things to happen to give chance for capacity to grow. It's not always easy and pleasant. It's like when someone asks you to run and you said you can't but when pandemonium happens or you hear a gunshot or you are chased by a dog or lion, you will make that run you never thought you could. You would even say you didn't know you can run... The thing is, the capacity is there but you just didn't know. A person being chased by a turkey and a lion can never run the same way πŸ˜‚πŸ€£.

Some of the things you need the most are a result of the challenges you haven't gone through. Once you have the capacity for it, you will have it. No challenge is bigger than you. The temptations in your life are not different from what others are going through. God is a faithful God. He won't allow the temptations to be more than what you can stand, so any challenge that comes your way, God has already weighed it and know you can handle it.

You will go through your challenges as I would go through mine. No matter how much you love someone, there is a limit to the help you can give to them because everyone would bear their challenges on their own. We always pray for God to take the challenges away but we should rather ask God to show us what He wanted for us with those challenges. Our emotions always cloud the things we have to see. That's why it's always important to pray to God to show us what we need to learn from them and show us the way out.

Thank you for your time.

When I was young I don't understand problems and hardship in life. I hated God for it coz my young mind thought if God loves me He will not let me get through all these challenges. And as I get older it gets tougher but little did I know and now I understand there's always a good reason behind it. And that God loves me. It made me tougher than my problems.

Understanding the love of God makes it easier. Someone said that God always leave His toughest battle for His most trusted soldier. I used to think God doesn't care too until I got to know how God works.

Challenges are really a part of growing, we can never grow in our life unless we are going through tough times in our life. God have to test our faith it is was true and unique, so having a challenges is a privilege to prove our faith in Him. We also need to asked him. To gave us strength to face it all.

It's indeed a test to prove our faith and grow our strength. Rather than ask Him to take the challenges away, we should rather ask for strength to bear them. Imagine Moses with distorted speech. God could have easily taken it away and make him coherent but no, He left his distorted speech there and asked Aaron to be his spokesperson instead. God knows what He is doing always.

Let me just share with you. I have a friend, who got confused on why did God allowed negative things and problems in life to happened, when he can do all things. That friend of mine couldn't understand why, so he turn away from his faith, for that reason. So, if we recognize this things, and how did God works unto us, we should be grateful about, that God opened our hearts.

It's so disheartening to see him turn away from his faith. It takes deep understanding to know that all things work together for the good of those who love God. I hope he finds the light and understand that God was building his capacity instead. Jesus was left on the cross and even He had to cry out and ask why the Father forsook Him. I hope your friend receive the light.

I hope so, I didn't see him anymore, but I'm hoping for God to work mysteriously in his life.

I join my faith with yours and God will locate him and bring him into the light through the help of His Spirit.

Problems is everywhere and they are created for us to realize something or to learn from it. It not just a problem that was thrown randomly to us because it is meant for us to face it all. And true, we shouldn't rush thr others just because we overcome ours, for just a short time. I am so guilty with this to be honest. I am too focus on myself without noticing that we are nkt the same person. If I can do it in fast pace some can't do it. And they have their reason.

Yes, my friend...we are all different and have different strengths. These challenges are mostly tailor made for us to overcome and when we overcome them we can build strength and grow.

Thank you so much, mama. Yes, we should not resist change and without these changes and challenges we can't really grow.

But his career seemed intact as was a big mentor to aspiring to the newbies in his field who wished to be like him when they grow up...

Let's just keep on praying if we are experiencing some hardships and challenges that comes in our life. Only God can help us during those times. Lets just keep our connection with him and everything will be okay.

Only God can help us. When we stay connected, we feed off Him to know what to do with every challenge that comes our way.

Challenges are part of life. We cannot live life without challenges but the thing is that we should pray not to see challenges that are more than us.
