Praying in times of trouble

What do you do in times of troubles? How do you handle it?

Jonah prayed to the Lord in distress. Even when Jonah had acted against the will of God and travelled in the opposite direction that the Lord wanted him to go: when Jonah was drowning in the sea, he prayed to the Almighty, and the heavenly Father intervened: by the most unlikely way he saved Jonah and brought him back on track. Jonah had done wrong, yet God gave new chances and tasks to Jonah. We all fall short yet God gives new chances also to you and tasks and targets for a fulfilled life.

We can pray in all situations – also in times of trouble. Even in times of self-made trouble.
