Our God is God of restoration! God can and will revive and restore us in His time. "And the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast." (1 Peter 5:10) No matter what trials and troubles we may have to go through, God never leaves us nor forsakes us. We can be confident in the goodness and faithfulness of God. No matter how deep we may have sunk, God will bring us up again. “There is no pit so deep, that God’s love is not deeper still.” (Corrie ten Boom) "He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; He set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand." (Psalm 40:2) God will increase our honor and comfort us. "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God." (2 Corinthians 1:3-4)
God is in control of everything forever and ever. We are safe and secure in the loving arms of God who is omnipresent, omniscient, and omnipotent. Remember that God's purpose realized in the future at times involves some pain and sufferings in the present. Understand this truth, embrace an eternal perspective, rely on God, and you'll be able to face anything.
