“For everything you've loved or lost, God has something else. For everything that's been stolen from you, God has something else.” – the word for today.
There’s a saying that said, “Everything will be okay in the end, if it’s not okay then it’s not the end.” Things in life can be tough sometimes but don’t give up. Keep your head up and walk courageously. Sometimes you will encounter a situation where everything seems impossible, yet put your faith in the right foundation then you will see that every thing will fall into the right places at the right time.
It’s easier to be said that done of course and as a writer, it’s easier to write than to do it :D – but one thing for sure, giving up is not an option. For so many times in my life, i want to give up on many things but i got good friends and GOD who would always support me and to make sure that I don’t give up. In the end, the hard times shall pass :)
When you are in difficult situation, there are three things that you should do:
1. Don’t get stuck in self-pity.
Never feel like you are the only miserable people in this world. That kind of feeling won’t help you at all, it will only make you feel jealous of other people or feel as if the life is treating you unfair, when in fact, everyone has their own struggle that sometimes can be bigger that what you’re going through. Thus, stuck in self-pity won’t get you anywhere, it won’t allow you to see beyond what is happening with yourself :)
2. Ask for a help.
Alone you might get fragile but in a community you can be stronger. If you are facing difficult situations, ask for help. Although sometimes your friends or community might not able to give you the direct solution to your problems but they can encourage you, pray for you and walk with you through it. Don’t think that you’re being abandoned just because no one is asking you how are you doing or checking up on you or offering you help. People are not mind-readers, so they might need you to tell them what’s been happening to you and ask them for help.
Sometimes people forget to ask for a help that’s why they become very burdened and slowly exhausting and draining themselves. To let it go, talk to someone, ask for a help.
3. Last but should never be the least, Rely on GOD.
I am a person who believes in God and His unfailing love. You can clearly see that from the values that I’m holding :) – Thus, if you believe in God, rely on Him. God will never disappoint you and He will surely catch you when you fall. Although at times, you might feel that God is silent, don’t get mad at Him but instead run closer to Him. God’s silence can mean a lot of things, mostly He just want to see your persistence, how far would you trust Him to be your savior. So far, I have never known anyone who is put to shame if he/she put her faith in God. And so far, I have never felt left alone when I put my faith in God.
Yes, things are sometimes going in totally the opposite direction of what I expect them to be, but hey, in the end, I get to see that everything is beautiful in His time and His ways.
If you don’t believe in God, maybe you can try to give Him a FAIR chance :p
Anyway, end of words, for anyone who is struggling and happen to stumble on this blog. God bless you darling and I am praying for you, may you find accountable people who is able to walk with you through the process and may your faith in God rooted even deeper. Just believe that: As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." (Romans 10:11)
