When I confront one of these seemingly insoluble questions, I use our
Lord's advice. "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find;
knock and the door will be opened to you." (Matthew 7:7). I find that the
Lord never allows a problem for which He does not provide an answer.
Sometimes we are so overwhelmed by the problem itself that we lose the
capacity to seek and find the solution He always gives. My advice is: When
you have a problem that defies human solution, sit down, lie down, or
kneel down, and say something like...
Dear Lord, this problem is beyond me.
But I know it is not beyond you because you are all wise. And I know you
are as concerned as I am about this problem (or maybe even more). So, I
come asking you for a solution. Thank you in advance for giving it to me.
Time after time the answer, and a good answer, will come. God has no
problems, only plans. The Bible says "Cast all your anxiety on him because
he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7). Try it! You'll find He really does.
