People ask why God sends problems because many faiths believe struggles build character, deepen faith, teach dependence, redirect paths, or atone for sins, helping people grow closer to God, gain wisdom, find purpose, and mature spiritually, even though it's difficult. These challenges can draw attention to spiritual needs and reveal God's presence in overcoming them, transforming understanding from intellectual to personal experience.
