When faced severe struggle, sometimes we get caught up in the despair and fear. Struggles seize our joy and enthusiasm. As a result, we are getting worse and difficult to find a way out. Can no longer pray, the more miserable, and hopeless. In certain levels sometimes we act evil and dishonorable. We forget that God is able to help us get through all these struggles.

What exactly should we do? Treatment is given advice the word of God: rejoice, persevering in prayer, steadfastly in fellowship with God, and give thanks in all things. That is God's will for us. So, we who claim to believe God will not let the struggle of life drag us into anxiety, depression, and desperation. We will be strengthened to remain strong, enthusiastic, and rejoice. -PRB
