Life isn’t always easy. There are times when everything feels like it’s falling apart, when the struggles seem too heavy to carry, and when it feels like God is silent. In these moments, it’s easy to question your faith. But here’s the truth: God is still with you, even in the hardest times.
1. Talk to God—Even When It’s Hard
When life gets tough, it’s easy to pull away from prayer. But this is the exact time you need it the most. Prayer doesn’t have to be perfect. It doesn’t have to be long. It just has to be real.
Express all of your emotions to God, including your confusion, anger, and sadness. He isn’t scared of your honesty because he already knows what’s on your mind.
Continue to show up even if you don’t feel like praying. Sometimes you can be reminded that you’re not alone just by talking to God.
2. Stay Rooted in Scripture
When everything feels uncertain, the Bible is your anchor. God’s Word is full of promises of strength, comfort, and hope.
- Isaiah 41:10 – “Do not fear, for I am with you.”
- Psalm 46:1 – “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
- Romans 8:28 – “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him.”
3. Surround Yourself with Faith-Filled People
When you struggle alone, your faith may feel weaker. Be in the company of people who will remind you of God’s goodness, pray for you, and offer up prayers.
- Join a Bible study group.
- Call a friend who shares your faith.
- Listen to faith-based sermons or podcasts.
4. Look Back on What God Has Already Done
It’s easy to focus on the struggle in front of you, but don’t forget what God has already done in your life. Think back to a time when He carried you through something difficult.
If He was faithful then, He will be faithful now.
- Prayers you’ve seen answered.
- Times when you felt God’s presence.
- Moments when He provided exactly what you needed.
