Where can we go and to whom should we turn to when all seems to fall down?

Some instances that happens in our life make it seems so hard to enjoy life as it is but these struggles and life challenges makes life worth living and even make happiness more sweet when attained rather than having a less complicated life wherein our strenght can't be assessed nor our capabilities be measured.
These things that seems to hinder us from having the full happiness is just a reminder that we are human with limitations and with these limitations we need SOMEONE who can help us, SOMEONE who is always there... just waiting for a call. Isnt it that the distance of the floor from our knees is not that wide and can easily be joined together to make a short prayer saying to GOD that we need HIM not just during these difficult times but every moment of our lives.
HAVE A BLESSED DAY TO EACH OF US!

I think this is where friends and family come in. I guess if you believe in God or are religious you 'give yourself to God' like so many else do and expect Him to just take care of it for you. To me that is both irresponsible and self demoralizing. I take of it myself and with the support of good friends and family.

I would just like to clarify some things... Never did I mention that we need to rely everything on Him and do nothing at all. What am I saying is that when everything seems to fail or falling apart... or when everyone can't help us anymore... (Because even those people around us have limitations... they can help us once, twice or many times but never for a lifetime... and if we always rely on them isnt it being irresponsible as well?) WE SHOULD NEVER LOSE HOPE... Because God above there always looks upon us and NEVER fails to take care of us. But YOU ARE RIGHT... We do need to TAKE PART... Thank you for that wonderful insight of reminding us to work on ourselves for a better life but let us not forget that He can help us even more.

WHo else but ourself. haha =D Nobody can help us if we dun help ourself out. Anybody or everybody can be there for us, but it's useless if we dun listen, and insist on our ways. Believe in ourself is the way to go in life. IT's good to listen to advice, but not taking it completely. Or else, we will become too dependant on them to the extend of living life, not the way we wanted, or not living for ourself. haha

Yes... Its better to believe our ownselves than other people... because we know what is best for us... but KUYAkun... God knows a lot more that us... Am I right? Trust Him but still do something and work on it so that success will be at hand by God's grace

Jhordie hi yes so many times we have been so troubled and nothing came right and I just gave up on myFather but yet I knew there must be a reason for all that was happening so finally a few weeks back I prayed this way God my son has been out of work for so long and its upset and split our two person family, show me a way for my son to finally get a job so I can get out of this retirement center. I got a sudden message from my heavenly father. Just one word , networking. I emailed my idea to my son, and four days later he met a person he had worked with 12 years before, the friend learned my son had been long out of work, and offered him a job on the spot. He has now worked almost a month. My call
to God was answered with his own wa of doing it. God Bless and keep you.

I agreed with you as the moment I'm so frustrated and feeling so down that my family was going to a point of a brink but still figthing with support I'm getting from friends in mylotters. I did lost faith when both of us (me and my wife) lost job last year but went back to HIM , God is always on us all , I know it was only a trial to all of us what's happening right now. God blessed you all mylotters.
