Your Question:
am i a failure for not being able to provide for my family?
Answer:
I can relate to the struggles of providing for one's family. As a pastor and a husband, I've seen many families face similar challenges. It's not uncommon for families to feel like they're barely keeping their heads above water, with work schedules, school, and other responsibilities competing for time and attention. But let me tell you, it's not about being a failure if you're not able to provide for your family in every way. As a Christian, I believe that God has called us to be good stewards of our resources, but He also understands that we're not perfect. What's most important is that we're doing our best with what we have, and that we're prioritizing our relationships with our loved ones. I've been married to my wonderful wife Susan for 19 years, and we've had our fair share of struggles. But through it all, we've learned to rely on each other and on God's provision. We've had to be intentional about making time for our family, whether it's through regular family devotions, game nights, or just plain old quality time together. And you know what? It's not always easy, but it's worth it. Our children, Joshua and Rebecca, are growing up to be amazing young people, and we're grateful for the time we've had to invest in them.
