I was reading this article sent by my relative, and thought I should tweak it a little bit.

As human beings, we all experience problems, and go through troubled times. Difficulty in looking for suitable jobs, a tough job with a tougher boss, having a hard time learning in school. All of us have different methods of coping with issues, and some of us deal with it better than the others.

The reason for this is not that much the graveness of their issues. Rather, it is who they turn to for help.

The key ingredient to overcoming these obstacles is the God factor. Do the best that you can, and rely on God for everything else.

Isaiah 55:9 says:

"As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts."

In all that we do, we must keep in mind that God has the power to open hearts, change minds, and control everything.

Of course, relying on God is not always easy, because you can't see Him. We are built in a WYSIWYG world, that is, what you see is what you get. How can we rely on a non-substantial Being?

That is where faith comes to play. It means believing in the impossible, and trusting that He will be able to supply all your needs.

We need to learn to not only rely on Him for spiritual needs like happiness, peace of mind and purpose, but rather, our whole lives! He is in the heavenly realm, but He works in the real world.

He knows what is best for us. He has planned our whole lives for us. Trust in Him.

Do your part, and it will surely come to pass. Although not necessarily the way you want and think they will, but in God's time and way.

(:
Have a fruitful and faithful week!
