All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others
Similar situation
Dear Friends ,
I would like to tell you I am in similar situation to this article. I am not worried that I lost something my heart desired. I lost my path, I lost my mind. I do not know where I am heading, what I need to do and what should I expect. I do not know what God wants me to do. Currently I am silent. But this is pulling me down many a times. Related to all other things except my personnel life I am able to get God's guidance. I am able to sense God speaking to me, this article is one such example. But I am not able to be as peaceful and happy as before. This is because I failed in something which I thought God wanted me to do.God will not smile at my defeats. God's Will will never try and confuse his son and enjoy in his failure. He wants me to teach me something out of it. I feel like Moses losing the chance to get into Canan, David losing his son and Joseph captured to Egypt. Moses lost it altogether, David lost a son but got Solomon a wiser son, For Joseph though everything looked gloomy at last he came as a victor. I do not know If I am in place of Moses losing everything , or David losing one but gaining one or Joseph not losing anything though situations were gloomy. I pray and try to trust in God but my natural trust I had with God is lost and I am trying hard to get it back. God has saved me from many a situations but this is a tough one. My mind is telling me I lost something I should not have lost, the next moment it tells me that is not something I am supposed to get so I lost it, the next moment it says I lost it altogether because of my disobedience, the next moment I am angry and scold the people in my dream, the next moment I pray God to forgive them and bless them, next moment I feel lonely and left alone by people I showed much care and much friendship and the next moment I feel like a criminal and stupid , the next moment I pray to God to change everything. Please pray for me and give me some advice

Don't Rush
"Who is among you that feareth Jehovah, that obeyeth the voice of his servant? He that walketh in darkness and hath no light, let him trust in the name of Jehovah and rely upon his God" (Isa. 50:10, RV).
What shall the believer do in times of darkness -- the darkness of perplexity and confusion, not of heart but of mind? Times of darkness come to the faithful and believing disciple who is walking obediently in the will of God; seasons when he does not know what to do, nor which way to turn. The sky is overcast with clouds. The clear light of Heaven does not shine upon his pathway. One feels as if he were groping his way in darkness.
Beloved, is this you? What shall the believer do in times of darkness? Listen! "Let him trust in the name of the Lord, and rely upon his God."
The first thing to do is do nothing. This is hard for poor human nature to do. In the West there is a saying that runs thus, "When you're rattled, don't rush"; in other words, "When you don't know what to do, don't do it."
When you run into a spiritual fog bank, don't tear ahead; slow down the machinery of your life. If necessary, anchor your bark or let it swing at its moorings. We are to simply trust God. While we trust, God can work. Worry prevents Him from doing anything for us. If our minds are distracted and our hearts distressed; if the darkness that overshadows us strikes terror to us; if we run hither and yon in a vain effort to find some way of escape out of a dark place of trial, where Divine providence has put us, the Lord can do nothing for us.
The peace of God must quiet our minds and rest our hearts. We must put our hand in the hand of God like a little child, and let Him lead us out into the bright sunshine of His love.
He knows the way out of the woods. Let us climb up into His arms, and trust Him to take us out by the shortest and surest road. --Dr. Pardington
Remember we are never without a pilot when we know not how to steer.
"Hold on, my heart, in thy believing--
The steadfast only wins the crown;
He who, when stormy winds are heaving,
Parts with its anchor, shall go down;
But he who Jesus holds through all,
Shall stand, though Heaven and earth should fall.
"Hold out! There comes an end to sorrow;
Hope from the dust shall conquering rise;
The storm foretells a summer's morrow;
The Cross points on to Paradise;
The Father reigneth! cease all doubt;
Hold on, my heart, hold on, hold out."
