Taking care of the physical aspect is very important as well as prayer and reading the Bible. I have been reading through this book, and it has been very helpful to me so far.

I have been going through very rough times myself. I am learning to trust in the Lord one moment at the time, and it has been hard as some of the circumstances in my life have been progressively getting worse. It is very hard to get some hope going to bed, just to wake up and things get worse.

In all this though, God is shaping my heart. I have far more compassion towards other people now. I have learned that not only people experience different things in life, but they also experience things in life differently.

I focus on God and His Kingdom, knowing that all pain and trials are part of His custom-way to get me to heaven, and I try to be obedient and cast my care and anxieties on Him.
