The world observes only the interval between birth and death; they concern themselves only with that limited period. But God, the Master and Sovereign of all the worlds, past, present and future, does not do like that. He has more compassion than the entire human race put together. He showers His grace, weighing the three tenses of time, the three tiers of space, and the three traits of character. He knows best, more than anyone else that the best recourse for you is to believe that everything is His Will and be at peace, and immerse yourself in the contemplation of His glory and grace. (Bhag Vahini, p. 287)

It is most essential you understand that everything happens as per His will. Whatever happens is for your own good. With such firm conviction, you should accept pleasure and pain, good and bad with equanimity. It may be difficult for you to bear misfortunes. You should pray to God to grant you the necessary strength to bear them. You may have difficulties today, but tomorrow it will be different. Difficulties are like passing clouds. They will certainly give way to happiness. Man always strives for happiness. How can he attain it? True happiness lies in union with God. In fact, God is beyond happiness and sorrow. Whatever you may do, He says, ‘Tathastu’ (So shall it be). He showers His blessings on you saying, ‘Let it be for your own good.’ You will be free from sorrow once you understand the Bhagavadtathwa (nature of divinity). If you are undergoing difficulties, do not get disheartened. Have faith that God is making you go through the ordeal for your own good. Happiness and sorrow coexist. You cannot attain happiness without undergoing difficulties. (SSS Vol.39, pp.43-44)
