Hello, John and Doves,
Is your life cross-threaded? Believe it or not, there's a solution to repair damaged internal threads!!!
And yes, there are hinged dies to repair a cross-threaded bolt!!!
"Great," you say, "but my life is not a bag of discarded nuts and bolts."
"Well," say I, "there are two things you need to know."

Fact #1:
"But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible."
Fact #2:
"For with God nothing shall be impossible."

This is why Jesus said,
"Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full."

Let the Word of God interpret itself for you:
5"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
6In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."

Again, it is written,
4"Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. 5Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 6do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. 7And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

Watch out! God likes to take His sweet time, until He is our only hope. Then, when His solution comes down the pike, it is all worship, honor, praise, and glory to Him!

What!?!? You prefer a vignette from the Tanakh?
How about the four lepers outside the town gate in Samaria?
Read about it here in 2 Kings 7.
