Figuring it all out as a Black woman, mother, sister, friend, etc. in the midst of this mixed up, evil world while still holding to GODs unchanging hand and my sanity! Cause the Lord knows the trials, tribulations, and sacrifices being made just to thrive and live, especially as a Black woman, on this earth...it's tough...just research the statistics...as they say, numbers don't lie.
Well, I, for one, am sick of being "strong enough" for the world to ride my back while I hold it up. Get the f--k off my back cause I ain't your mule. And just cause I cuss doesn't mean I don't love GOD, the father, son, and Holy Spirit any less. So watch that bull jive too!!!

Understand the assignment (1 Peter 5:10).
We often think it's going to be easier to live on this earth if we walk according to GODs will, but that is so far from the truth. GOD told us that we would face trials and tribulations (John 16:33).
It's easy to hear it, but it's hard when you're in the midst of it. Your mind wonders, worries, and stresses, but it is your responsibility to yourself, to GOD, and to the kingdom that you stay focused on GOD in the most critical and uneasy moments. "Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee" (Isaiah 26:3).
You can not be double-minded, a man who on one side believes in GOD, but on the other side doubts GOD; has uncertainty (James 1). With GOD, this can not be (Hebrews 11:6). As a believer of the GOD of Issac, Jacob, and Abraham, GOD, the son, and GOD, the Holy Spirit, you must trust in El Shaddai (Proverbs 3:5-6) and know that whatever the outcome, it is still HIS will. We have to trust that Yahweh knows what is best for us.
When you're really in the belly of the beast, man is guaranteed to disappoint you on every side, every time. People you believed you could trust will sell you out. People you thought loved you won't be anywhere to be found. Friends and associates will disassociate from you. Most of them will value their jobs, positions, and the materialistic things they can obtain with those jobs and positions over the value of your life. And in that they are destined to lose (Mark 8: 35-38).
Depending on the battle, understand that the war has already been won (Revelations 19: 11- 20:3). The battle still must be fought both in the spirit and natural realm. The armor must be worn (Ephesians 6: 10-18). And you must know your position (Ephesians 4:11-16; Deuteronomy 20:1-4, 8-9; Psalm 144:1; Exodus 15:3)
