If it were not for our problems, how would we know Christ in the way we testify of Him today? It is in our weakness we are taught gratefulness for His strength. It is in our foolishness that we become grateful for His wisdom. It is through our problems, not in the absence of our problems that the Holy Spirit reveals to us our need for Him. Without an awareness of our problems how could we ever be molded with humility, how would we ever come to know Jesus in the way He desires to be known? Which is with genuine adoration, praise, and gratefulness.
No one wants problems, but the fact remains that God uses problems in our life as life's continual greatest lesson, I NEED Jesus! A life without problems is not my concern. My concern is a life without knowing I need Jesus everyday! Therefore I am grateful for my problems, because they dictate to me my need for Him.
"Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:6)
In this episode we speak with Richie Reese, the directory of counseling at Crossway Ministries in Anderson, SC. He shares with us how the vision of christian counseling is not to fix , but to heal and how he challenges people to appreciate their problems, because your problems are meant to lead you to Jesus.
