There are times in a lifetime, we are faced with a difficult phase. Obstacles block as if to tackle the drag of the legs that are felt to be getting weaker. Even though he had put in all his efforts, it was all in vain. Every drop of sweat that has been shed seems to have found a dead end.

We also begin to be faced with a dilemma — choosing to continue fighting or turning back home from the battlefield. Thousands of questions inevitably raced through the mind. Does God really love his servant who is now lying down? Where did he go when this weak soul had to endure? Why doesn't help come? Don't you deserve a helping hand?

Things that come crashing down make you lose the spirit that used to seem like it never went out. If you can, it feels like you want to lie down and stop trying

Maybe if likened to objects, life is like a wheel. Every time will rotate according to the permission of the Almighty. You must have been at the peak of ease, where it feels like every prayer you say is heard by God and then answered. But there will come a time when your patience will be tested to be changed into a bigger human being.

It could be that that time is now. When you groan because of a difficulty that is in your way. You're definitely not a weak human who easily lay hands on it. With all hope, you never stop trying and wrap it in prayer. For some time, you are still patiently waiting for your turn to receive the best results you strive for. But now that hope seems to have faded. When you are faced with a hope that has not yet touched the edge of an answer.

You also start to worry about the existence of God who was so championed. Thousands of questions are raging inside me, is it possible that I should end all this effort?

When every given power is felt to be not producing the right results, as an ordinary human you start to get tired and question the existence of God

All the efforts and methods that you know have been carried out. Even when these failures seem to never get tired of approaching, you have been the most stubborn person and keep running. But now it feels like all the excitement has disappeared. The spirit that once seemed to know no stock ran out in the chest, is now starting to be replaced with a desire to curse.

You start looking for a thousand reasons to quit. While not forgetting to insinuate God about his existence which is now starting to be questioned. You also violate the rules of life. Why is the effort you've been desperately trying to do not find a solution. Naughty thoughts started to come. Looking for shortcuts so that all problems are immediately met with the answer key.

This is the point where you start to feel tired of being told to wait. The sense of ego as a human seems to absorb all the ability to surrender to the Creator. You see things as mathematical calculations– shouldn't there be a recompense for every attempt?

You also start to get tired of looking for a way and stop trying to do good.

If you want to listen to your heart a little, there is hope from the people closest to you that can be a reason not to stop. Their support and sacrifice strengthens the efforts that have been carried out so far

there is always hope

Now you are truly in the abyss of despair. Maybe stopping walking and turning around is the best decision you can make. However, the remnants of hope are still in the chest room. The pain begins to be felt when you remember how disappointed those closest to you are when they see you decide to stop trying.

Maybe now you are running hard to complete your study assignments to get a bachelor's degree. The efforts full of tears until you read this article have not yet found a bright spot. Obstacles are the best friends you meet every day you have. If you can actually you want to scream and admit defeat with all challenges. But considering that parents far away put their full hope on you, the decision to give up was a sharp knife to their hearts.

Memories of how they struggled to send you overseas again come back. Their sacrifice is a sharp record of a parent's love for their child. You can imagine that you cried last night when you came home without a diploma in hand. Not to mention the tired expression of the father who did not pay off after all this time working hard to the bone. There was a question in my heart:

“Should I stop and turn back home?”

God is the wise director of life. Do your best with prayer. Because in his silence, God must hear every plea

But no matter how difficult the problem is, I hope you never know the word stop. At least after reading this article, I want you to be stronger to face everything. Through this sentence, I send a long prayer so that all the challenges that you must complete can be resolved properly.

Believe that there will come a time when tears will turn into laughter. All your efforts will be answered by God in time. The most important thing you have to believe is that there will always be a balanced price that the Creator will pay according to what you do. No effort is wasted as long as you try. Do the best you can.

Never get tired of doing good. You are a creature who was never prepared just to taste failure. If all your efforts at this time have not found a common ground, it is part of the trials of life that you must pass. With patience and prayers that do not get tired of being said, there is a sweet answer ahead that you will find someday.
