Setbacks in Life
There are different kinds of setbacks in life; financial, health, family, relational or career setback.
You may be dealing a setback right now. No matter which you are in, you feel that forces are against you. This drags the overall and makes life less enjoyable.

Part of a greater plan.
Those nights that you spent crying over unfulfilled dreams. Was experiencing rejections, from one failure to another. As if you are not doing anything good at all. You sometimes ask, "Did I hear God wrong?" Recognize that, it's always right before you get to the next level of your life. New level, new devil. Satan wants to attack those who are next in line for a promotion. It all depends on how you view it. So stay a little more focus.
This is such a game changer. Truly, only God knows what's best. He knows that this is essential for us to grow. He cut's of not just the dead areas in your life but also those that are successful and are bearing fruit. Your faith will be tested but never forget what God has told you in the light during your dark times. I know, sometimes it really doesn't make sense but isn't it wonderful to develop that kind of attitude, "Because you say so, Lord. I'll wait..I'll do it...I'll trust you...I'll continue to grow..."
God's pruning in your life.
It surely will take place, it will not be delayed. (Habakkuk 2:3)
Give God the first part of your life.
What is God calling you to do? I'm not saying that we should drop our career and work at the church. Sometimes, we are a missionary in disguise. May it be a missionary disguised as a writer, a missionary disguised as a teacher or whatever the job God has put you to do. Either way, we are working for the Lord.
If we never experience the chill of a dark winter, it is very unlikely that we will ever cherish the warmth of a bright summer's day. - Anthon St. Maarten
Accept, plain simple yet, in reality, is painful. It's important to have the right mindset, it's never easy but always strive to improve. Keep finding things you love. It's being happy that leads to great work and success. This may stretch your comfort zone but it's a good stretch because that's going to bring you to something else.
Remember: If you are feeling like it's time to give up and you can't take it anymore, that's an indication you're up to your breakthrough.
