You are not alone in your situation. God is in control and moving on your behalf. Here are inspirational quotes to remind you of the faithfulness and sovereignty of God.
God is still in control
Have you forgotten that God is still in control? He’s never left you. God is working behind the scenes to bring about His will. Not only is He working in your situation, He’s also working in you. Be still and realize who goes before you. I want you to ask yourself, has He ever failed you? The answer is no. You have probably gone through hard times before, but He has never failed you. He’s always made a way and He’s always given you strength. You can trust God. I encourage you to run to Him right now.

“Prayer assumes the sovereignty of God. If God is not sovereign, we have no assurance that He is able to answer our prayers. Our prayers would become nothing more than wishes.

Because of the empty tomb, we have peace. Because of His resurrection, we can have peace during even the most troubling of times because we know He is in control of all that happens in the world.
When you accept the fact that sometimes seasons are dry and times are hard and that God is in control of both, you will discover a sense of divine refuge, because the hope then is in God and not in yourself. Charles R. Swindoll

“A great emphasis in prayer is what God desires to do in us. He desires to get us under His loving authority, dependent on His Spirit, walking in the Light, motivated by His love, and living for His glory. The collective essence of these five truths is an abandonment of one’s life to the Lord and a continual openness, dependence, and responsiveness to His loving control.” William Thrasher
“I believe firmly in God’s control in life.”- Charles R. Swindoll
Don’t worry God is in control
It’s so easy to worry. It’s so easy to sit in those thoughts. However, worry does nothing for sure but create more anxiety. Instead of worry, go find a silent place and get alone with God. Begin to worship Him. Praise Him for who He is and what you do have. There is joy in worshiping the Lord. As we worship, we begin to see, the God who goes before us. The more we grow in intimacy with the Lord, the more we will grow in our understanding of His attributes.
“Begin to rejoice in the Lord, and your bones will flourish like an herb, and your cheeks will glow with the bloom of health and freshness. Worry, fear, distrust, care-all are poisonous! Joy is balm and healing, and if you will but rejoice, God will give power.” A.B. Simpson

God has always been in control. Remember His faithfulness
Whenever you start to doubt, remember God’s past faithfulness. He’s the same God. Don’t listen to the enemy who will try to discourage you. Stand on God’s biblical truths. Meditate on Him and His goodness.

“Remembering and keeping one’s focus on God’s unchangeable character and His eternal faithfulness becomes one of our greatest resources for courage and the faithfulness we need to go on even when things seem their blackest.”
