2 Chronicles 32 finds Judah being invaded by Assyria. King Hezekiah, seeking to encourage the people of Judah, says (2 Chronicles 32:7, NLT),
Be strong and courageous! Don’t be afraid or discouraged because of the
king of Assyria or his mighty army, for there is a power far greater on
our side!
Likewise, we should attempt to view our own trials and tribulations through a similar lens. We should strive for faith in that far greater power of God. And if we feel that we lack that kind of faith, we should pray as the father of the young boy did to Jesus (Mark 9:24, NLT),
I do believe, but help me overcome my unbelief!
God knows we sometimes struggle with faith. Let's admit that to God, and
ask for his help.
