There once was a man who struggled with what God was doing, what God would allow and who God would use. This man was a contemporary of several other prophets, including Jeremiah. His struggle was real but it was based on his reality and not the reality of God. If you're wrestling with your reality, and not resting in God's reality, that may be the very reason for your unrest.
This very same man went from a struggling witness to a servant with a living faith that surrendered to the truth, peace and rest of letting God be God of all. God's reality become his reality and he found rest and hope and joy in the Lord and the reality of his circumstances and future were no longer a threat but something to embrace, endure and enjoy. This is how Habakkuk explained the difference in his new found hope.
"Though the fig tree may not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines; though the labor of the olive may fail, and the fields yield no food; though the flock may be cut off from the fold, and there be no herd in the stalls [in short, in spite of losing all my livelihood and provision] — Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The Lord God is my strength; He will make my feet [bountiful] like deer's feet, and He will make me walk [and overcome all the rocks and obstacles I must face] as I climb the high hills of my life..." (Habakkuk 3:17-19).
