God isn't alarmed when we hit rock bottom.  He made the rock.

Baptist minister

There are times in our lives when we feel there is no way up or out.  Illness, Poverty.  Confusion.  Loneliness.  Desperation.  They take us to the place called "rock bottom."  In these times you may feel weak and vulnerable, and it is easy to lose faith in your ability to go on.  It is exactly in these times that you must turn to the infinite power within yourself.  You must know that the answer is exactly where you are.  The strength you need, the answer you want, the solution that will turn the situation around is you.  If you can put aside the anger, fear, weakness and desperation for just a minute you will remember the "other times" you were at the bottom and how in a moment, miraculously, you were lifted up.

-- Iyanla Vanzant

There is not a spot where the [Almighty] is not.
