Biblical Answer

Loss of Business and Sense of Purpose

You lost your business and your sense of purpose due to various reasons. Firstly, you were made by God to create, and if you don't create in a thoughtful and worshipful manner, you will feel less purposeful. In your case, you took on demanding leadership and administrative roles, and science and the Christian faith became a hobby that was not fulfilling. You also made some terrible financial decisions early in your ministry that almost put your business out of operation.

Update Your Life Plan

You may need to update your life plan to get back on track. Keep your commitments, such as meeting God daily to talk to Him in prayer and read His Word. Your vision of God's purpose for you is to depend on Him and on His power now. You need to stay calm, faithful, and unconfused while in the midst of turmoil. Your purpose is not to perfect yourself to make you a trophy in God's showcase, but to get you to the place where God can use you.

Finding Purpose Again

You can find purpose again by understanding that your purpose is not to achieve personal happiness, but to fulfill God's purpose for you. This means enjoying God and taking joy in the lives of others, not seeking admiration for yourself. Your purpose is not to be a trophy, but to be productive in God's eyes. You can depend on God to lead you out of your current situation, and He will use you for His purposes. Don't be discouraged if you failed at one thing, as it doesn't mean you are a failure. It means you failed to find where you can be productive in God's eyes. You can update your life plan and get back on track by depending on God and His power. Divine sovereignty is at work in your life, and He will lead you to a place of purpose and productivity.
