"The LORD is close to the brokenhearted; he rescues those whose spirits are crushed."
This specific verse in the bible tells us that whenever we feel sad, depressed, frustrated, angry, worried and all other things that render our hearts vulnerable, that is when the Lord is very much close to us.
More than anything, God wants to show His infinite love for us in so many ways. And perhaps there is no better way to let us feel that than to save us. His greatest act of love for us was to save the sins of humanity through the sacrifice of His Beloved Son. And He continues to love us infinitely even until now. In the midst of our sins, unbelief, doubts and fears, He is always ready to answer our cries for help. He is also always ready to forgive us.
When life gets you down, and you encounter problems, do not give in to too much despair. Don't ever feel that you are alone. God is with you always, and He will be ready to help you when call on Him. Even if problems and trials don't seem to end, do not stop calling out to Him. Keep on praying. Because whether or not you see it, and whether or not it is answered today or later, your constant prayers are working. He hears you, He knows your desires and your needs. He knows your weaknesses and fears.
Keep this in mind:
How will you ever know God without problems? If this world was as perfect as we wanted it to be, and everything happened the way we wanted it to, then we would never know God. We would not know a Saving God, a Helper God and ultimately a God whose love is the only love that will never leave us. We would not come to know the magnificence of miracles and the joy of answered prayers.
He shows His undying love for us when He assures that He will always be with us, no matter what. If you allow God to enter your life, what a wondrous life that indeed would be. God wishes to comfort us in our sadness, He wants to give us the best of what He can for us, He wants to make us happy under his Grace and Love.
It is in problems that you see God, that you talk to Him, to plead for His intervention in your life. He is more than willing to do so much for you. Give Him your absolute faith and trust. He will answer your prayers in many ways that you cannot conceive. God is an arm that will hold you at your weakest, the same arm that will help you get back on your feet.
Implore Him in your sadness, just as much as you Glorify Him in your happiness.
