This hard place in which you perhaps find yourself is the very place in which God is giving you opportunity to look only to Him, to spend time in prayer, and to learn long-suffering, gentleness, meekness - in short, to learn the depths of the love that Christ Himself has poured out on all of us.

Remember how He asked for help in performing his miracles: Fill the water pots, stretch out your hand, distribute the loaves.
