In his sermon on 1 Corinthians 10:1-13, Lutheran preacher Edmund Steimle says that the “what if’s” of life keep mocking the dream in our hearts. Paul told the Corinthians there was no temptation taken you but such as is common to all. We may think no one understands our problems. Most of our problems are quite ordinary. God who made us gave us freedom. We have to accept God’s diagnosis and treatment for our problems. God insists on treating the whole person. God insists on complete renovation.
