There is a touching poem, as follows:
"When I do not understand God's will, I choose to BELIEVE in God...
When I am depressed by disappointment, I choose to THANK God...
When my plans fall apart, I choose to SURRENDER to God...
When I am depressed by disappointment, I choose to THANK God...
When my plans fall apart, I choose to SURRENDER to God...
When I am about to give up or quit, I choose to STRIVE with God"
(Lifelatos-edited)

Jeremiah, a writer of Lamentation book, experienced tremendous pressures--to the extent that he said,
"I thought I would never have peace again. I forgot about good things. I said to myself, “I no longer have any hope that the Lord will help me.” (17-18 - ERV)
He could not change or avoid those pressures.. Whereas he can choose to be HOPEFUL in God. He focused himself to God's faithfulness, as on verses 21-23 below:
"But then I think about this (His faithfulness) and I have hope: We are still alive because the Lord’s faithful love never ends. Every morning he shows it in new ways! You are so very true and loyal!"
Have a good day!
God bless :D
