i totally understand cause i have gone through this. You may be unhappy because there is some thing you want but don't have. God can give you peace in realizing that you don't need what ever it is or you may be looking for someone or something to to bring happiness. I don't know what is making you unhappy but maybe i touched on it a little. Ask God for the wisdom you need
You sure hit the nail on this one. I am looking for a job and have been looking for over a year and half, I am stuggling financially and everyday is a stuggle, I am in desperate need, I try to look at the bright side but I am having trouble with that because I am stuggling so much just trying to keep my head above water.
Ask for it.
Ask and it will be given to you,
Seek and you will find,
knock and it will be opened to you.
(Mathew 7:7)
Joy is one of the nine fruits of the Holy Spirit.
And if you're going through a hard time, just follow what God wants you to do. its a major act of love if you follow God even when you can't see him in your life.
If joy is taken away from you and you still choose to follow him in every way, that's when you will truly love him.
Hope it helped :)
