I have encountered a series of tragedies in the last 3 months. I am striving to make a better life for my family, but every time I take 2 steps forward, I fail. I believe in God, and believe he will deliver me if it is his will, but I can not continue like this. I feel as if he has forsaken me or turned his back on me. I pray everyday and seek his counsel in everything that I do. I just can't figure why I continue to suffer, when I am trying so hard to abide by his word, live righteously, and treat people as I want to be treated. My faith is so low now, and I just feel like giving up. The only thing that keeps me going are my 2 beautiful little girls. I just feel like such a failure. Please pray for me and my family.
Continue believing and trusting in the Lord. This is not the first time I heard of people saying that the more they do God's will, be closer to HIM the more tragedies ,problems come their way. The only differences others lose the faith and turn away from God while others continue to believe and take this as another test from the Lord, and that they feel that everytime tragedies befell them they become closer to God. And true enought they soon realize our faithful God never left them and had carried them during these low times of their lives. It is up to you which direction to take.
