The problems you share, can be a blessing for others. I posted that status just now, and it makes sense. Ever since Adam & Even sinned against God, life has been full of problems for many people. You have people who were dealt a bad hand from birth, and others who started life with good fortune and life has been good for them since then. It's sad, but life isn't fair. If Adam & Eve never disobeyed God, I truly feel that life would be lovely for EVERYONE. There would be no unemployment, sickness & disease (disabilities included), crime, war, etc. If someone's born with good fortune, hopefully they're appreciative of their good start in life because there's always someone ready & willing to take their place. Scenario: A couple wants to have 2 children, but both parents have a history of Tourette's Syndrome. Anyone who struggles, has struggled or has a loved one with that condition knows how serious it can be. Because disabilities are hereditary, there's an over 80% chance of this couple's children inheriting that disorder.
They forge ahead with their decision to have their children, when something miraculous happens: Both children are born healthy, even though the doctors said their children would inherit the disorder. That's nothing but GOD. There are couples who are under so much stress from taking care of special needs children. Looking at a person who's conquered great odds to become successful, I think that person would appreciate their prosperity more because of what they've gone through to get to their destination. Even though someone was born with good fortune, I'm sure they appreciate their blessed life because of how their (grand)parents paved the way. I read so many Facebook posts from hurting people, and it makes me appreciate how blessed I am. Blessed that I don't have worse issues than some people, blessed that I can take my issues to the Lord and leave them there. Some people don't have the comfort of talking to God about their issue(s).
