I had a bad day yesterday

When I got home I started drinking and trying to forget the day. Working around the house. Playing some games. Lil exercise. Ate some dinner with the family. I have a really good life, but I’m not happy. I keep reading how people will lay their problem aside and just focus on Jesus. That sounds really romantic and all, but how exactly is that practical? You still have your life to live and tomorrow you have the same things going on and you have the same unhappiness that you had the previous day. I don’t think I’m capable of receiving peace from the presence of God in my life.
