Your Question:

Why did God take away my only source of income?

Answer:

My friend, I can sense the weight of your question. You're seeking to understand why God may have taken away your only source of income. As someone who has walked with the Lord for many years, I want to share with you a perspective that has helped me in my own journey. It's not about what we have or don't have, but about our relationship with God. When we put our finances under His covering and live in obedience to His ways, He promises to provide for us and meet our needs.

I've seen this principle play out in my own life and in the lives of those around me. When we give generously and seek to honor God with our resources, He often blesses us in ways we never thought possible. But it's not about trying to buy God's favor or expecting some kind of reward. It's about worshiping Him and magnifying His name through our giving. As the Bible says, "God does what He pleases." Sometimes, His ways may not make sense to us, but we can trust that He is working all things together for our good.

In my experience, it's not about the amount of money we have or don't have, but about our heart's attitude towards God. When we seek Him first and prioritize our relationship with Him, He will take care of the rest. As Jesus said, "Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well." (Matthew 6:33) May I encourage you to seek the Lord and ask Him to show you His ways. He will guide you and provide for you, even in the midst of uncertainty.
