God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears and light for the way.
If God brings you to it, He will bring you through it. God didn't call the qualified. He qualifies the called.
God is my source of existence and my Savior. He keeps me functioning each day and every day. Without Him, I am nothing, but with Him...I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me (Phil.4:13)

Proverbs 17:3 Gold and silver are tested by fire, and a person's heart is tested by the Lord.
these are not a scripture in the bible but this has helped me when difficulties arise. "If your self-esteem falls overboard, throw out a rescue line. Pull yourself back together. Don't be your own critic, be your best ally. We will always encounter challenges that make us feel less than we really are. What matters is that we can pick ourselves up. The darkest hour is the best time to see the stars. It is when life seems most harsh & painful that the most wonderful blessings arrive."
"It is not the critic who counts
nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbled
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly; who errs and comes up short again & again; who knows the great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who at best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, as the worst, if he fails, at least fails while DARING GREATLY
so that his place shall never be with those timid souls
who know neither victory or defeat "
--- Theodore Roosevelt

You won't find any formulas or magic solutions, but if you put in the effort to use the words to help you to build a relationship with God, it will help you. I would suggest starting with one of the Gospels. Either Matthew or John. Make sure you're reading it to find out what it's saying, not to put your own meaning or ideas onto the words. Just listen.

2 Corinthians 1:3-4 - Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles.
2 Corinthians 12:9-10 - Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

Hello again
I see that not many have answered.
May I come again here?. I hope you don't mind. I want to tell you why I gave you that verse. Can I, please.
Well,you see. When I became a Bahai I came to believe in Christ.It did happen in a thousand years old dome in my country, Sweden. This was a fantastic revolution in my heart and my mind and I could REBUILD my life. Many Christians wouldn't believe this can be true. They believe in the interpretations of priests. Those interpretations differ, causing confusion. That's my opinion. But truly, to turn to the Founder of this Faith, that is Bahaullah, (1817 -1892) enhances your appreciation of the Messages Christ brought and you'll receive more of His love and light. I know that this is unheared of, but God always surprises you.!!!Count on that, even in this materialised world where just old habits prevail. Do you honestly like to be fashinated and thrilled, then you'll also have the energy to do a new inquiry into this verse. Rev.3:12 I defend Christ and want nonbelievers to be openminded for His divine Reality and the possibility to have a share of His love. I can only recommend that you read His own words as they are the most potent words.For exemple Rev.3:12
Did you look at it?..... I am seriously asking you. You see, 150 years ago all christianity almost split entirely into searching sects, because of it!.Then left their homes in quest of the Return of the Spirit with the new name, selling all their belongings, thinking they'll just ascend right up into heaven. They went on top of the mountains to get a glimpse of His Glory, taking the Bible quite literally and also thinking He would bear the name Jesus, even though He warned people against that name.Remember?
It started in the 1840ies. This is well documented. I studied all about these movements when I became a Bahai.
Now, dissappointed Christians have abandoned that passage in the Bible.Only one group of Christians, the German Templars found a place below the Mount Carmel in Haifa, where they built houses and inscribed this on their doors "Der Herr ist nahe"= The Lord is near. The houses are still there.They came there a few years before the Bahai Faiths Founder Bahaullah came there, and put up His tent. Isn't this intriguing? A Riddle suitable for you?
Why don't you take it up. There will be outrolled in front of your eyes the greatest spiritual adventure, you can ever conceive of.Your heart and your intellect will decide if this is the truth
If you believe that Christs promises are true about His arrival in the Glory of the Father, then you'll set out
to look for this event of the world.
Now I mean that you have to look for a Founder of a recent religion who doesn't call Himself Jesus or Christ. You'll find Him in a community where the name is another one. Just as it is said in the verse. There is a new name, and the "new Jerusalem" can be looked upon as this spiritual Personages new LAWS given to Him from God. This makes sense to me. Does it to you? Ponder upon it.
The white stone is an old symbol of release given to freed prisoners in ancient times, with their name on it so that they can pass out of the prisongate.
The name Bahaullah means Glory of God. He came to Mount Carmel as a prisoner of the Turkish state long ago, when the world was unaware of it.

Hello friend from India
This is Laila from Sweden. I am giving you something which is very unusual. This: Revelation:3:12. Have you pondered about it. It was popular 150 years ago. Then seemingly forgotten. The one who pondereth upon it will surely be guided to the right life, him will God give new gifts, unheared of.And great joy, if you are persistent, and don't forget it.
I believe Christ means that He, comes back as the HOLY SPIRIT in a new body. And will meet and reward everyone who seeks Him. And that He will have another appearance, that is =THE HOLY SPIRIT will radiate out of another body, bearing a new name. This is practically another person. Isn't it? I even believe that this name is hidden in the Bible, but no one was to figure that out, except for the One who was to come. He, blessed by the Holy Spirit will reveal Himself and tell us a new name. And remind us of Christ. So, you must seek Him. Then you'll make Jesus glad. When you make Jesus glad you'll get happy yourself. What do you think about this??The jews have come back to their country long ago, that was the sign.
Can we be friends? I hope so.
I am Lailamaria
Kind regards
