When we feel overwhelmed by life’s circumstances despite our best efforts to serve the Lord, to pray, to grow and we have a sense that “everything is against us,” we must:

-remember the biblical examples of others who felt that way (Abraham, Jacob, Moses)

-look for God is our circumstances- don’t discount Him or distrust Him

-keep doing what’s right (live responsibly)

-keep growing in our witness, bible study, prayer, and Christian character

-be patient

-recognize that God’s way is best – “We may not know what the future holds but we know the One Who holds the future.”
