You are likely struggling to process the reality that your life is about to change, or has changed, forever. You may be frantically rehearsing Scripture verses about how God works all things together for good and how we are supposed to give thanks in everything because it is God's will, while feeling guilty that these promises aren't doing much to ease your trepidation, sorrow, and loneliness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf this describes your situation, take heart. You are not alone. We have been where you are now. God has shepherded us through that dark valley of the shadow of death and brought us out the other side. He will do the same for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep rehearsing His promises in Scripture. Keep putting one foot in front of the other each day, obeying His precepts and serving Him as best you can. Keep surrounding yourself with Christian brothers and sisters—they will help you bear your burden. And keep reading this book.
