There was a time in my life when I was filled with hopelessness. My life was falling apart, and I woke up every day with what felt like the weight of the world on my chest. It was year 2010. After a long struggle I was right on track with a good job in hand, fine with my health and it seems like life is coming back to order. But this happiness did not last long, Merely 3 months in job and I fall sick with severe dyspepsia and to add salt to the wound I worsen the situation with my habit of going in deep thinking. In a few days of time from a healthy happy person I turned out to be fanatic who couldn't stay alone for a moment (my condition was such that I was in constant fear that something is going to happen to me just now) and then the long process of consultation and medication begun but nothing seems to be working (though I got temporary relief for a while) but everything was falling apart.
I was totally clueless how to deal with this situation.
But during this depressing situation there was a faint voice inside me which was keep saying to me not to give up and everything will be alright. But dont know how it's going to happen and how I am going to come out of this dilema. Then one day something happened which I consider as a miracle, A message from higher self.
It was sunday and and as usual I was not feeling well infact I was out of sorts and was not able to understand what to do.
So, I took my cell phone and just aimlessly started surfing through web, suddenly my eyes catched the attention to a Bible verse ;
22 So, Jesus answered and said to them, "Have faith in God.
23 "For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, `Be removed and be cast into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will come to pass, he will have whatever he says.(Mark 11:22-23 NKJ)
And all of sudden I felt a bit more better a bit more confident and a bit more secured. I don't know why and how but I felt relaxed. The faint voice inside me got a bit louder and there was a sense of assurance that this is it. The answer to my problem.
After reading the verse. I started surfing the web again for some more encouragement of this sort and out of nowhere I got a link to a You Tube video of Anthony Robbins (Prior to this I was not aware that anything like personal development or self help type of things even exist.) So, clicked on the link and watched it.

It is about 7 minute short video where Tony Robbins talked about Focus. And how shifting your focus you can change your condition.
And for me in that video, I not only found the answer standing right in front of me to the problem. (why I am feeling the way I am feeling but how to get rid of this problem.)
Immediately I realized I am getting what I am focusing on and lousy questions about my self getting me lousy answers. And in the same video He says you can change your state in a flash. And believe me it only took me not more than 30 minutes to get rid of the problem which troubled me for 10 months.
The verse and video combined had created a impact on me. I sat quietly and focused entirely on my well being and the powers of God. And it has been 7 years now I haven't taken any medicine for any illness whatsoever.
By God’s grace, I’m now 7 years removed from that troubled phase. Yet I still see people fighting through their own hopelessness: Yet, even in the midst of these dark times, where it seems there is no way out, God’s Word reminds us that with him, there is always hope.
Maybe you are going through tough times and feel hopeless. You are in a dark place, overwhelmed by the situations you are facing and wondering when it will ever get better. In times like these, I encourage you to explore the hope of God’s Word.
Here By telling you my story I am not suggesting you to stop your medication but I strongly suggest you do mix it with faith and not only in illness but in any situation if you keep faith ,trust your capabilities and above all trust God. Rest assured wonders will happen, The problems you think are big enough will disappear. whatever bothersome and vexing things are there in your life, They will be neutralised, All distortion and ugly images will be washed away with the infinite powers of God.

Fuel your hope with faith that;

For me it all started with one verse; The journey of my life with lord Jesus grace has started with one verse.

Here are 7 Bible verses for you to keep in your heart with faith and your troubles be all gone.
