When and how to have trust in God and change your reality accordingly!

One of the most special teachings of the Baal Shem Tov amongst the myriad amazing insights is this, by finding the good in the bad, the bad turns to good!
In other words, when encountering a situation which to our humble eyes seems bad, it is then our job to try to see good in it; or at the very least to trust that as God is good, everything will be good, as the famous teaching from the Tzemach Tzeddek “Think positively (i.e. that God will help you) and it will be positive!”
This is despite the fact, we may not feel we deserve any help, for these above two methodologies are what creates the Divine reaction, much like if a child was in a predicament and they came to their father and said “I know you will help me!” there is no doubt, that all parents, especially a parent such as God, filled with love and compassion for us, his children, will!
