Answer #1

hey I thout God gave me more than I could handle when my dad told me I was adopted and he was divorcing my mom and some other stuff but God uses stuff like that to help grow us he allows us to go through times like that to help us grow to be more like him and as christians meaning little christ thats what he wants us to do face trials knowing that even if its hard even if someone is makin fun or hurtin or scarin you or the situation is that he is gunna use it for his glory to help us to become more like him you may ask me how I know ethis at 17 years old well I’ve gone through enough and God has let me learn that like in james 1:2-4 consider it pure joy my brothers whenever you face trials of many kinds. because you know that the testing of your faith develops perserverance and perserverance must finish its work so that you may become mature and complete not lacking anything. that means we need to be able to rough up the old paint stick and our situation or whatever we go through can either make what we do and what happens to us they can either make us bitter or make us better but its up to us

Answer #2

…because the Bible is wrong.

Answer #3

its all of FAITH with God . He wants us to lay our burdens at his feet in prayer and let him take care of it . Once you pray that he helps you he will its not us that can take care of all but he does . Let him work for you he wants us to lean on him not the world for help .

Answer #4

“christians” would tell you its God pushing you and trying to get you closer to Him. life seems overwhelming for all of us at some point. Dont feel alone in this.

Answer #5

all things are possible through God, right?
nothing is too much of a burden because you have been thrown a life preserver (jesus christ). all you have to do is grab and hold onto that life preserver.

…does that make sense?

Answer #6

Well , thats life and sometimes it may seem like you cant handle it, but if you trust in God then you should just try as hard as you can to handle it and make the best desisions

Answer #7

Because the key is having Him in our life..(JESUS).He won’t give us more than we can handle WITH HIM…Life is very over whelming!!! And I have asked myself this question many times with my own personal struggles in life and some days I really think I just cant go on, but when I think that I just break down, asking God “WHY” WHY” WHY” ??? I ask Him to PLEASE help me and take this from me and to give me peace and help and even though it doesn’t always come immediately, He DOES hear our prayers and He DOES care! He just wants us to humble ourselves and come to Him with our issues and problems.

Answer #8

Because there’s no such thing as god.
