God is the sovereign ruler over all; He is not evil and cannot do evil things. Whatever trials you may face are only to correct and train in righteousness. As a person to whom God has given inward peace, I can attest to the accuracy of this verse:

When he giveth quietness, who then can make trouble? and when he hideth his face, who then can behold him? whether it be done against a nation, or against a man only: Job 34:29

Even though problems from every direction may surround me, I remain unshaken. When I face scorn and the enemy rears his ugly head, I cry out to Jesus, and comfort washes over me like a warm, soft blanket in a chilly room. If you are rattled and don’t feel peace in a trying situation, are you relying on Jesus’s comfort? It’s so much easier than you think; it only takes One name to calm the enemy’s attacks.

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke iseasy, and my burden is light. Matthew 11:28-30
