Do not focus on the problem—focus on faith!

Who doesn’t have problems and difficulties in this life?
We all have an obstacle to overcome! Since childhood, we already have challenges to overcome, like overcoming the fear of falling while taking the first steps, the first day of school in kindergarten, overcoming the fear of getting hurt while learning to ride a bicycle and so on!
But have you noticed that when we focused on the goal, it led you to conquer!
That’s right, I remember when I was learning to ride a bike, I fell several times, but I got up and tried again, and I don’t even remember the pain or the scratches, because the willingness to learn was much bigger!
That’s how it is in our life … When we begin to mature, many difficulties arise, insecurities, and challenges but faith makes us focus on the goal and we have the strength to fight until we conquer, without giving up!
And when we fight for the salvation of our soul for eternity, that faith doesn’t become discouraged, but perseveres until the arrival in the Kingdom of Heaven! Furthermore, if you have the goal of being saved, you’ll never be discouraged by the difficulties, on the contrary, the difficulties will make you strengthen your relationship with God and live in His dependence!
Dear cybernaut, do not give up on the first attempt, and much less with the difficulties … Focus on faith because it makes you strong and confident in knowing that what God promised will be fulfilled through your perseverance and obedience!
” In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

This is a gentle reminder of what we are fighting for and we never give up. My eyes must continue to by focused on my salvation if not then I will just focus on the things stopping me from getting there.

This was a helpful post. The topic reminds me of the gentelman who created the light bulb Thomas Edison. Who on his 1000 try created the bulb. When asked how did it feel failing 999 times he say I didn’t fail it was 1000 steps to successful inventing it. It just shows that you may not get it right the first time but if your mind is set on achieving the goal no matter how many obstacles you face or ‘failed attempts’ you have had if you preserve you get there. Thank you for this post I really needed to reminded of this.

This is so true, when we focus on our faith rather than our problem it always gives us the strength, power and encouragement for us to overcome this problem even quicker than if I were facing the situation on my own. As God always gives us the motivation and we learn to see the problem as just an opportunity for God to challenge our faith!

Thank you for this post, It has really helped me to look at my situation with different eyes, to look at it with faith and trust that I will be able to overcome it with the help of God.

Indeed when we focus on what we will be gaining we forget what are losing.

Thank you Miss, I have learnt that when we don’t give up it shows our relationship with God. Secondly, it shows that we have this characteristic of a true servant is to always be perseverance. Finally, what I see is when the devil tempt us saying we can’t make it, what I like is that he is actually helping us to get stronger especially at the times he is doing whatever he can for us to be in a desert but if we see it like this Satan we are ready for you, and instead of you giving up, you take this battle and that is when we use our faith to conquer.
