Be still and know that I'm God. As long as you are living with worry and stress, you are tying the hands of Almighty God. Be still and be in God's rest means that although you may have a problem, you trust Him to take care of it.
We don't grow nearly as much when everything is easy; we grow when life is difficult, when we are exercising our spiritual muscles, in the pressure spots.
You are where you are for a reason. Whatever it is, God will not allow anything to come into your life unless He has a purpose for it. You may not like it, you may be uncomfortable. But if you'll keep the right attitude, in the end, you will come out stronger and better off than you were before.
Faith doesn't always instantly deliver you, but it always carries you through.
One of the most important aspects of faith is trusting God even when we don't understand.
