UPLIFTING WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT FOR THOSE WHO ARE "GOING THROUGHT IT"

Thousands of people will go through periods of demanding “What the hell was that, God? What did I ever do to you to deserve this? whether we consider ourselves religious or not.
Especially to the faithful believer, I know that you are most likely pissed off at God because you have been faithful to Him for all along, having never skipped a day of prayer, even fasting a couple of times, and yet he “does this to me?” As a christian, you have probably prayed for His will to be done on earth, just as it is in heaven, so listen, that what you’re going through is part of the plan. You are going through part of His will in His plan and I assure you if you keep on following Him you will come out victorious at the end. The Lord is 100% testing your faith because this is what is said about tough times in Ecclesiasticus 2:5

Set your heart aright, and constantly endure, and do not make haste in time of trouble. Cleave unto him, and do not depart away, so that you may be increased at the last end. Whatsoever is brought upon you, take it cheerfully, and be patient when you art changed to a low estate. For gold is tried in the fire, and acceptable men in the furnace of adversity. Believe in him, and he will help you; go the right way, and trust in him. You that fear the Lord, wait for his mercy; and do not go aside, lest you fall. You that fear the Lord, believe him; and your reward shall not fail.

When you look at Job, despite his anger, he does something that we struggle with. He rushes to God in his anger – not away.
When we are angry at God, we are more likely to avoid him. We tend to go cold on Bible reading and praying, and retreat into complaints and bitterness. When we’ve just been disappointed, we don’t want to face God. “Why should I trust when my trust feels like it’s been violated?”
But Job doesn’t shut God out. Nor does he turn inward to self-pity and cynicism. Instead, he continues calling out to God and demanding answers, relief and reassurance. He demands God forcefully to lay his cards on the table, but importantly, he asks and significantly, God does show up – and that’s when healing began.

God is in control, even if you don’t feel like it or you understand what his plan is yet.
God is right there with you for sure even when you don’t feel like He is, and you know what? a couple of years or months later you will be sitting back, reminiscing with a smile on your face saying to yourself. Damn, I really got throught that. And you will be glad you never left the faith.

And if for some reason that does not help, keep this in mind. This world is a test, and is so temporary. The great King David said we are given 70 years to live, 80 sometimes by God’s grace, so how little time do you have left. All this is passing away quick.
Also if you think your plans did not go as planned, remember this,

"Many plans are in a man’s heart, but the purpose of the LORD will prevail." Proverbs 19:21. You can make plans all you want, but if the Lord has not ordained it, then it will definitely not come into fruition.

You don’t really know about tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for only a short while before it vanishes. James 4:14
[I]
Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3:2

“Nothing but vapor, totally vapor. Everything is just vapor that vanishes.Ecclesiastes 1:2
[/I]
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. Isaiah 55:8

“As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:9

Keep your eyes on the one who lasts forever. Jesus Christ, the Alpha and Omega. Amen
