Reply To: Discussion Question: Trusting God’s Promise

[Anonymous]

One of God’s promises that I struggle with, similar to Abraham’s back and forth battle, is from Genesis 2:18: “Then the Lord God said, ‘It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him.'” I have had an on and off struggle with this promise of God for quite some time, doubting that He will ever send me a wife. It has been easier for me to believe this promise when I have actually had a girlfriend, as opposed to when I am not dating someone and I cannot fathom Him actually bringing her into my life. I would like to be able to say that I have learned to trust God with this promise, but at this time I am struggling with my doubts.
