There are many of us believers who would have to admit that we doubt the Word of God when bad circumstances arrive. Satan lies to us.
He tells us that God doesn't care. Oh, but He does.
1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
He says God doesn't hear. Oh, but He does.
Jeremiah 33:3 Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
He says God isn't even there. Oh, but He is.
Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
It’s foolish to forget God in the middle of our troubles. He is still God no matter what we face, Eph. 3:20.

“Want to hear the story of how I made it through, — When life is full of trouble, pain, and fear; — The answer may seem simple: though everything else crumbles, — One thing has remained through all the years.
“I still serve an amazing God, — He's been with me every mile my weary feet have trod; — He still cares, — He still hears; — He's still mending broken hearts and drying tears; — This old world is bound to change, — But I'm glad I know the One who always stays the same, — And my song will ever be, — Amazing God, You're still amazing me.
“The God who parted waters still makes a way today, — He's always brought me through the troubled seas. — The One who fed the thousands, whose words could calm the tempest — He's my Bread of Life, and He's my Peace.”
