Stop praying for your problems to be taken away
There was a time when computers were as big as rooms. This would be a “big” problem in today’s world as we can’t carry a room-sized computer to the coffee shop. Bill Gates co-founded Microsoft, which developed the MS-DOS operating system for IBM’s first personal computer. Microsoft became a leading software provider, and its Windows operating system is now widely used on personal computers around the world.
Gates created a solution to a “big” problem.
God didn’t create everything for man and left him to face problems because He intended for him to be great. God didn’t even make man a chair to sit on. I’m sure at some point, man got tired of sitting on the floor. Instead of providing everything, He put the solutions to man’s problems in nature.
God put a chair in a tree and man being as great as was intended found the solution to his problem in the tree.
We were created to find solutions to our problems but these days, we don’t always spot the solutions around us. Our busy lives often prevent us from seeing them.
It is quite unfortunate today how when we face a problem, we pray to God to take it away. We pray to God to take away our opportunity to make a difference.
Problems are opportunities for greatness.
