Your Question:
how do i keep going when it feels like everything is against me?
Answer:
I've been in tough spots before, and I've learned that it's easy to get discouraged when everything seems to be against us. But as a pastor, I've seen time and time again that when we focus on God, He can turn even the darkest moments into opportunities for growth and learning. When you're feeling overwhelmed, it's tempting to give up, but that's exactly what the enemy wants you to do. He wants to distract you from God's plan and make you feel like you're alone. But the truth is, God is always with us, even when it feels like He's not. When you're feeling hopeless, remember that God is your Problem-Solver. He's seeking you more than you're seeking Him, and He wants to use your struggles to make you a better person. Don't focus on the roadblocks in your life; look beyond them to God's plan. As the Bible says, "When I was looking for God, He found me." So take a step back, reflect on what you've learned from past struggles, and look for the lessons God wants to teach you in the present. It's also important to recognize and confess any sin in your life that may be contributing to your struggles. When we give place to sin, it can become entrenched and lead to further problems. But when we confess and repent, we can break free from its hold. And remember, God doesn't expect us to endure on our own; He wants us to rely on Him. So when you're feeling drained or discouraged, don't neglect to focus on God. Instead, take a deep breath, look to Him, and say, "But The Lord is my helper this very moment, even in my present circumstance."
