Will God Solve My Problems?

Tuesday February 26, 2008
Maybe you've heard or read Christian testimonies about God's power to completely change someone's life. Healings, deliverances, rescues, miracles and more. Maybe you're wondering right now, if I become a Christian will God solve my problems?

No. At least that's not what my Bible says. We Christians deal with just as many problems as non-Christians. We face the same troubles as anyone else here on earth. The difference is how we deal with those problems as Christians and who faces them with us.

If you're wondering why God doesn't spare us from problems, Jack Zavada of Inspiration-for-Singles.com does a great job in this article, "Christianity for Realists," breaking down the myth of a problem-free life and explaining how Jesus intended for us to face our troubles.
