Ask again when you come face to face with a great white.
If God is indeed omniscient, He doesn't need tests to find answers. Nor a "quenching" process involving pain to make us grow.
It just really feels like I'm being tested right now. I "know" it's not realistic, but it sure feels that way. It's really bothering me.
That can be a good thing in the end. Perhaps you can even turn it in to a positive current experience by knowing you'll come out the other side stronger; depending on why you feel tested, of course.
A common feeling when things are going poorly or stress is high. And a part of that is probably that high stress usually means poor decisions, meaning more things go bad. A pyramid effect, in other words, of stress causing stress and troubles causing more troubles (whether your fault or not).
Hang in there, though, because the reverse is also true. Good things build on each other as well, leading to more great happenings.
I find that my first thought on a matter is usually the answer. So! If that is true for others than you already know.
