On a twisting path

I experienced devastating losses in a short period of time. My initial response to personal tragedy was to deal and solve things in my own way using my own method. But I guess that shouldn't be the way, the one and only way is submission.

Some of us like me are frustrated and fumbling though life because we refuse to read and submit to God's directions, knowing what we ought to do. There are very few Christians, which includes me who can honestly say "I don't know the difference between right and wrong." We all know the difference between what is right and what is wrong. We know what we ought to do or what is missing but for some of us the desire to be in control of our lives and our future has become our master. We do not want to submit.
Being in that situation, I can only say I'm on dangerous ground when continue to ignore God's truth. In fact, I may reach a point where I not only ignore God’s truth but also flat out reject it. If that is the case, then the justice of God says that He will allow me to experience the consequences of my rejection.

I've talked to quite a number of people about this, their suggestion was to recognize that God is the source of all life and is in control over all things, and respond to Him with praise, honor, and complete reverence whenever I'm faced with anything.
Maintain relationship with Him through praying, regular Bible reading, attending worship services, and fellowshipping with fellow church mates. That will be good enough for me to overcome almost anything and that's because He knows my situation better than anyone else does and has the loving power and will to guarantee that in the end it will all work out for the good. And when I confidently rest in the reality that my struggles are in His hands, I can experience peace that passes understanding.

Losses are tough to handle, but thanks be to the God of all comfort who comforts me in all my troubles.
