First of all let me say this, everyone has their struggles and issues, so no one is perfect. I know that sometimes it seems that life is too hectic and all the walls are closing in on you rather than moving out of the way. It even seems sometimes that things become so stressful that you forget to praise God in the midst of trying to get through your day to day battles/circumstances. Yes, you will have trials and tribulations, but don’t get so bogged down by your day to day life that you forget to spend time with God. I have even been guilty of that myself and I don’t know about you, but it seems that things are more difficult on the days that I forget to acknowledge God, than on the days that I do. (You would think that alone would make me remember to acknowledge God everyday, right.) Getting back to the basics of having your devotional time with God is so essential to your daily walk with HIM. Therefore, when things get tough, begin to think on the goodness of the Lord and all He has done for you, and remember you could be worse off than you are. Also begin to remind yourself that the Joy of the Lord is your strength and there is nothing that God will put on you that is more than you can bare.
Be Blessed.

It's All About You
Yes, that's right, it is all about you. You have the ability to allow an issue, situation, or circumstance to destroy your joy or not. Your circumstances do not define you, what you are capable of, or what your future will be, YOU DO! It's up to you to keep your joy no matter what. The Joy of the Lord is your strength. Joy strengthens you at all times whether it's a sad, happy, or neutral time, your joy is what fuels you to the next level. Think of it like this a car needs fuel to operate right? So you need the joy of the Lord to remain strengthened and able to fight and defend yourself against the enemy. The devils only objective is to steal, kill, and destroy. He doesn't care who or what he uses to interrupt your blessings he only cares if his plan to steal from you succeeded. The only way he will succeed is if you allow him to take your joy. You have the ability to resist the devil and his antics. The word says resist the devil and he shall flee. He can only torment you if you allow it. Continue to resist the devil and you will see he has no power against the Joy of the Lord that rest rules and abides inside of you. Take back what rightfully belongs to you. You are a child of the most high God so you have the right to maintain and receive every blessing, promise, and all the abundance that belongs to you. Remember it's all about you. You have the power to speak to your situation and cause it to change through your words and actions. Don't take your power and strength for granted use it to overcome and remain blessed.
