Have Faith—There Is A Plan For All Of This

Have faith, there is a plan for all of this.

You might feel the lowest you’ve ever felt. You may feel like the world is crashing down. Trust me, I’ve been there too.

When the days seem to drag together. When happiness seems impossible to find. You wonder what the point to all this is. Why it hurts to breathe. Why it hurts to live. What could possibly be the reason?

When there’s nothing to look forward to. Have faith. And trust the timing of your life. Those feelings are temporary and will get better.

We all struggle. We all have those days. But what happens when you seem to be stuck in a crossroads?

You let go to god. You have to believe. You have to have faith that things will get better.

So breathe. Maybe you constantly feel like you’re on the brink of tears. That one wrong word could send you into a downhill spiral.

When the bad days outnumber the good. When you disassociate from everyone. When you just don’t want to do socialize. That is when you have to breathe. Collect yourself. Just remember that life is a bunch of highs and lows. You’re not alone.

Sit down and journal. Text an old friend. Listen to your favorite music. And breathe.

We may not understand the struggles of life, but maybe one day they will make sense. Maybe one day you will look back and be thankful for the struggles. Because they made you stronger. Wiser. They made you someone who is able to face adversity and look it straight in the eye.

It made you tough. The challenges have made you who you are. Calm the voices in your head. Sit alone in silence. Recognize all the good in your life, as hard as it seems.

And trust the timing.

One day you’ll look back on this period in your life and be thankful.

Sometimes the struggles are what make us stronger.

So for now, just have faith. There is a plan for all of this. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
