divine providence

i was making a mental note to myself recently that i should be following divine will without any questions asked...it sounded simple at that moment...the logic was you just go with the flow and not worry about the next thing that is going to happen...you also believe in the age old adage that if something is happening to you, you deserve it and that the thing that belongs to you will come to you without you hankering for it...it definitely sounded easy on the paper and made me believe that this is the answer to my suffering...i actually wondered why i didn't think of this earlier? two days later, i believe it is not that easy...if it were, people would have been following it everywhere and there would be no unhappiness and stress in the world...that said, trusting divine providence is not impossible...there will be lapses, there will be digressions, but it can still be done...The biggest problem however seems to not about trusting the divine providence, but figuring out whether it is the divine providence or not...recently, i have made career move which at that time had made me believe it is divine providence, but now, i'm not so sure...why? because, the spiritual high that i experienced at that time is not being experienced right now and the demons of doubt have come back to torment me again...what can i do then? i believe it is better to go with the assumption that whatever has actually happened to you is divine providence...NO QUESTIONS ASKED...God doesn't make you do things that is not according to his will...probably, this will make you not ponder over the other choices and you can make peace with yourself...

In short, divine providence is probably summarized like (need to add more as we go along):

a) Believing that whatever has happened to you is god's will.

b) Believing that whatever has not happened to you is god's will.

c) avoid resisting things...if you dont like something, make an attempt to change it...if it still doesn't change, then you need to follow it.

Hopefully, writing this should help me to refer to this in case i get lost...
