are problems sent to teach us lessons and if we learn them does that problem stop..someone said this in answer

Question

to a question and I thought it was pretty insightful and my son recently said I keep having problems cause I don't learn what God wants me too..is this true..here is what the man said..please give me your opinion on this and answer a long thing if you can..I asked why is life so hard

he said Life is hard only when one does not recognize that the purpose of problems is for our own learning. If we learn the lessons presented by what we call problems, we acquire skills which make life much easier. Once the lesson is learned it is no longer presented or at least does not appear as a problem.
Failure to recognize the lessons inherent in each so-called problem is our greatest problem. A wise person welcomes difficulties because he knows they are beneficial and what he learns will be useful and even necessary to ultimately finding happiness and joy.

I thought this was pretty deep.

Answer 1

Similar things have been said before, but yes - that's pretty well the way it is.

A much simpler way to think about it is "It is all how you look at things." That is much more well written, perhaps, but it is the same thing.

Dumbing it down a bit, just because you learn how to deal with fixing a broken car doesn't mean the car will never break down - it simply means the 'problem' is now something you can handle, and therefore is not a problem in your eyes.

Neat when you look at the world in another way, eh? ;)

Answer 2

I believe that answer is a good one, and yes, you are right, it is pretty deep. I don't think that the reason you continue to have problems is because you did not learn what God meant for you to learn. The God of my understanding does not wish for us to be unhappy. He shows us easier ways to deal with problems, but he also gave us the freedom of choice. When we choose the same path that brought us misery, expecting a different result than the last time, we have just defined insanity. I believe that everything that falls on our heads, from that point on, falls under the category of "self-inflicted wounds" and you are the only one that can decide when you have had enough. Sometimes, knowing when to quit may be our greatest victory!

Answer 3

Every problem of life is unique. It gives some
unique experience. In the same way as we have
cycles of light and darkness in nature, a human
goes through joy and difficulties.

What happens to us is not important because
it is not in our hand. How we react to it and how
amicably we solve it is important. The experience
thus gained enhances our self confidence.
So says the phrase "That which does not kill
you stengthens you (mentally)."

Answer 4

Jesus taught that we could continuously do sturdy issues for people who abuse us and not return evil for evil. He in no way pronounced nonetheless that if somebody attacked us with the rationale to take our existence that we could continuously no longer look after our self. with an efficient ability. some time killing saves lives. while the united states of a dropped 2 Atomic bombs on Japan to end WW2 we killed approximately 2 million human beings in spite of the shown fact that it ended the war. The Generals figured that by way of fact the eastern fought so fiercely and fought to the demise that if we did no longer drop the A bombs, 7 million eastern could be killed and a million million individuals might lose their lives. by ability of finishing the war with Japan early and by ability of dropping the Atomic bombs; a million million American lives have been stored and six million 8 hundred thousand eastern lives have been stored.

Answer 5

That is deep, I never thought of problems that way. Maybe that is why I have problems because I do not learn from them.

Answer 6

"Man, Master of His Destiny," O. M. Aivanhov and "Expecting Adam," Martha Beck, Ph.D. are good for this approach. "Watch Your Dreams," Ann Ree Colton, "Climb the Highest Mountain," Mark Prophet, and "The Reincarnation of Edgar Cayce?", Free and Wilcock, http://www.divinecosmos.com also good.
