Are you going to let it steal your joy, or are you going to be still and know that He is God? If He’s not changing it, you have to be mature enough to say, “God, I don’t like this situation, but You’re in control. I’m going to stay in peace and enjoy my life.”
Could it be that what’s frustrating you is really the hand of God? Could it be He’s doing things behind the scenes that are for your good? He’s guiding you, protecting you, positioning you, preparing you. Not everything that happens is ordained by God, but nothing can happen without His permission. When it doesn’t make sense to us, we have to trust Him. He’s given you grace to go through it. If you pass the test, you’ll see promotion, healing, breakthroughs, and new levels.
