Don't give up brother. God allows us to go through trials and tribulations so He can strengthen us. Yes they seem terrible to us at the time but remember 2 things. First, mans ways are not God's ways. You must trust that God knows what is best for you. Even when that best doesn't make sense to you. It is part of His master plan. Believe me, God knows what He's doing. Second....remember that joy cometh in the morning. I can't begin to say this loud enough to you. I have been through so many horrible trials in life. So many of them didn't make sense and they made me so sad. Buit when they were over I looked back and I saw God's hand in it all. I saw where he was teaching me and watching my back. Maybe God has a really great plan for you. Scripture teaches us that it is easier for camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to get into heaven. Maybe the problems with your business are a way for God to get you into heaven. Ask yourself if you've really put God first or if money is your biggest interest? Lastly, I just want to say that I have been a Christian for a very long time. Like you, I have had some pretty bad bumps in my life. But I am still fed, and housed and loved by my friends and family, and warm in the winter. How could I ask for more? I don't need a fancy car to be special. I am wealthy that God has given me what He has given me. Take a look at your blessings. Really look. Can you see God working in your life now?
