You will always have problems in your life, how you act upon them is your choice, but you need to know that if you trust God and hold on to Him, then He will get you through it. Sometimes there are those problems that are just a constant bother, stubborn, and won't go away. You think its fixed, you go on with life, and then it comes back up. Maybe it is a habit or temptation you're trying to break away from. You do something, say you will quit, quit for a few days or a week, go right back to it. Thank God for those problems so that you can grow closer to Him and follow His lead. He can only help you as much as you let Him. If you keep trying to do things yourself and only let Him help you sometimes, you still won't make it all the way through. You've got to let go of it into His hands. First you must be thankful to Him and ask Him to open your eyes and hears to what He is doing in this situation. That will help you to get through and over the bump of it being a problem that can pull you down. If you just hold on, you will begin to see the problem through His eyes and know that it is just a small thing in your life, merely something that will eventually bring Glory to God if you just hang on!
For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!
Isaiah 30:21 (NLT)
Your own ears will hear him.
Right behind you a voice will say,
“This is the way you should go,”
whether to the right or to the left.
I need to remember this as I am dealing with an unexpected illness for which there is no cure. I am being treated. God is able to heal me and I am asking Him to do that. May He be glorified.
