Surpassing discouragement

“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you receive it, and you will.”
Mark 11:24

2 - Reflect
There are experiences that frustrate us, keep us upset, and can easily test our faith. We get angry with our Lord for making us go through situations that we believe are unfair. In those moments it takes a lot of strength and courage to ward off negative thoughts, even though in our hearts we know that it is only an experience for us to learn what our Heavenly Father has waiting fo us in our path. Have the obedience to understand that God will always comfort us and encourage us to be better people. For it is a momentary transition, from darkness to greater clarity.

Our Father will fulfill the promise of being with us and being our guide in any circumstance. Even though He can not ensure permanent tranquility and a smooth path, His presence will be essential to cope with any storm. The Lord puts us to the test, and then He shows us His divine grace, putting challenging moments in our story so that we can give the best of ourselves. We will emerge strengthened by the challenges, we will have gained experience, we will be more mature and wise to face the next situations. Difficulties are only moments in which we will have to hold on tighter to our faith and not remain confused or turn away from God.
