Even when all else fails and we feel hopeless, Jesus is our mighty God, in whom we can find all things. His teachings should be followed if we want to find happiness and tranquility in our life.
We experience difficulties in life even if we are whole in Jesus. To convey to him our agony during our moments of sadness and suffering, we must approach him in tears.
