IT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE IF NOT FOR GOD
Your situation would have been worse, if not for God's intervention. See this; Satan caught a fellow with his snare, he kept on waiting to kill him, by the way, God saved him from the snare, he finally escaped but he got an injury due to his encounter with the snare: He got injured instead of being killed. Do you know that this do happen in the spiritual realm without your knowing and consciousness? but the only thing that comes to your notice is the Injury, You still blame God for the injury not knowing it could have costed you your life. That injury might be; a loss of job, disappoint, failure in some aspects of life, etc.
Now, I bid you to praise and not to blame God in any situation you find yourself, it could have been worse, thank God for His intervention.
Doubel and Don_Chris rightly said "In every condition, there is still a reason to praise God because in all Situations, they stood by you; in all Circumstances, they comforted you; in all Temptations, they guarded you; in all Tribulations, they rescued you. They are; God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost. Therefore, Give Thanks"
