That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.” – 1 Cor 2:9 (NLT)
It can be easy to feel like there’s nothing good going on right now in your life. Maybe you feel like you don’t have good friends. Perhaps you’ve been through a really hard year, and you’re just ready for things to look up in your life.
When things aren’t going the way you’d like them to, it can be easy to want to yell at God. You wonder why are things so tough and full of problems.
Instead of yelling and being angry, one of the most productive things you can do is focus on the goodness of God. God loves you. The bad things that you’re facing aren’t God’s fault. They’re a part of sin and living in a fallen world. So instead of anger, decide to change your focus.
Focus on God’s love. Make that be larger in your mind than your problem. Determine to let God’s love become more real than your difficulty. As you focus on God, you’ll find that instead of anger, you’ll begin to experience peace. Realize that God loves you in a big way. He wants you to experience good things in your life!
