Learn to walk in the alignment of God. Learn to be under His control, His plan, His will, His direction and His words. You hear people say everyday "everything work out good for those that love God" without knowing that this promise is not for everyone. There is a clause that says "for those that love God and obey his words". Every promise in the Bible comes with a clause, which if you do not follow you will not get the reward of the promise.
If you take yourself outside the alignment of God, outside His control and will, if you do not love God and obey his commands, you may find yourself fighting battles alone without God's help, you may find things not necessarily working out good for you as he promised.
The promises of God is for the children of God, while the grace of God is meant for all. As a child of God, as a person who believe in God, always believe that everything, be it negative or positive is always for your good. Remember Joseph in the Bible whom his brothers sold to Egypt, they did while thinking that they have gotten rid of Joseph, Joseph thinking why will that be happening to him, why would his brothers whom he loved so much treat him with such hate, without knowing it is actually for the glory of God and to the redemption of his family in time of seven years of famine to come.
If you truly believe in the supremacy of God, and His hold in your life, if you believe that nothing happens to you outside his notice or command, then always be patient in time of criticism, betrayal,backbiting, disappointment, failure, rejection, persecution knowing fully well that at the end God will manifest and turn it all around for your good. It is quite difficult to stay calm in the face of tribulations, and difficult moments, but fighting, complaining, getting angry at life, becoming toxic towards people around you, asking why you, depression, su***de attempt, not believing in God anymore won't make the load lighter, rather it fuels it.
But staying calm, being positive and optimistic, going to God in prayer, seeking for refuge in him, believing He can get you through it, listening and staying calm to hear him whisper to you the ideas and solutions to your problem, searching for positivity around you, will do you more good more than being pessimistic will.
Also learn to forgive those that may have hurt you without getting an apology from them, do not wait for them to ask for forgiveness, change or repent before you find peace in your heart. Forgiveness is what you do mostly for you not for those that wronged you. Do not let actions of those who wronged you rob you off your peace, laughter and happiness, forgive them and move on. Let God handle your enemies while you focus on letting God win all your battles.
Remember it is not easy to see light at the end of the tunnel, it is not easy to believe that everything will eventually turn out to be okay at end, but with the promises of God whom we all know never fails, believe that it will. Let his will and his plan prevail over your life.
