כִ י אֲ הֵ בְ ךָ ה' אֱ לֹקֶ יךָ. Although we had plenty of sins to justify Bilam’s K'lalos, yet Hashem turned them to Brachos since He loves us. Here we see clearly: אַ פ ילוֹּר ש ֹעֹהַ בוֹט חַ ֹבַ ה'ֹח ס דֹֹ י סוֹב ב נוֹֹּילקוטֹ תהליםֹ סוףֹ פרקֹ לב You can ALWAYS trust Hashem to keep turning the worst of your situations into the biggest Brachos, Simchos, and Yeshuos, if you keep working on Bitachon.

In Elul - Speak Up!
You may have ongoing problems all your life, and you suffer needlessly. If you open your mouth and tell Hashem all the details of your pain, you’d be surprised what big Yeshuos you can have! הַ ר ח בֹ פ יךָֹֹוַאֲ מַ ל א הוֹּ תהליםֹפאֹיא Ask Him for your heart’s desire, and He'll give you whatever you ask! (Rashi).
But sometimes you have way too much of a nature of always being dissatisfied, and it’s better to keep quiet and learn how to be Sameach B'chelko, even in Ruchaniyus. You need to go extreme in working on your bad Middos, and don’t ask for anything! Just thank, and you’ll accomplish much more.
By Leah Imeinu it says: הַ פַ עַ םֹ אוֹד הֹ א תֹֹה'ֹ וַתַּ עֲ מ דֹ מ ל ד תֹֹויצאֹ כטֹ לה for this son, I will thank Hashem; and then she stopped having any more children. When she said “thank you”, it was with her whole heart. She gave birth to Yehuda whose very essence meant total thankfulness (his very name). וַתַּ עֲ מ דֹ מ ל ד תֹ
Stopping to have more children was exactly the way she felt, i.e.: ה'ֹֹר ע יֹֹל אֹֹא ח ס רֹֹֹתהליםֹ כגֹ א Hashem is my Shepard, so I will never be lacking. I lack nothing!
Like by Haggadah Shel Pesach we say: דַ י ינוֹּ Dayeinu again and again, to be M'chazek ourselves to have total Hoda'ah. This attitude can bring the most miraculous Yeshuos. I have two stories of people who only thanked, despite their extremely difficult issues, and in 2-4 weeks they had miracles that years of Tefila could not achieve.
