Having strong faith is the best way to face difficult situations in life. Muscles in our body get stronger when we use them, and our faith becomes stronger the more we use it! Each time we opt to trust God in difficult, sometimes even unbearable circumstances, we automatically increase our faith. When going through uncertain times, we can choose to believe these things by faith, no matter how it looks to the natural eye:
*God knows what’s best for us
*God is in control
*He has a perfect plan and purpose
*He takes care of everything and takes care of us
*God never changes
God uses difficulties in life in order for us to mature in Him. He can be found in every one of your circumstances. Simply follow Him and wait for His divine solution to the problem. We can be encouraged as we endure life’s uncertainties because we know that God always hears us and is always working on our prayers.
4 May he grant your heart’s desires
and make all your plans succeed.
5 May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory
and raise a victory banner in the name of our God.
May the LORD answer all your prayers. ( Psalm 20:4-5 NLT)
Never give up, be careful not to allow yourself to become bitter, do not get angry with others, or turn your back on God when things seem difficult and uncertain in life. God is faithful!
- Reflection: When I put my trust in him, I’m able to rest peacefully and confidently as I wait on the Lord. When I focus on what is true (God’s Word), my mind becomes fixed on Him, enabling me not to feel anxious or fearful about my situation.
