Your Question:
am i a failure for not being able to provide for my family?
Answer:
As a pastor and a husband, I've seen many families struggle with the idea of providing for their loved ones. It's easy to get caught up in the idea that we're failing if we can't give our family everything they need. But I want to tell you that's not the case. Providing for our family is not just about material needs, but also about emotional and spiritual support. As a father of two teenagers, I know it's not always easy to balance work and family responsibilities. But I believe that's exactly what we're called to do. We're not just providers, but also role models and guides for our children. And it's not about being perfect, it's about being present and engaged in our family's lives. I've learned that it's okay to not have all the answers, and that it's okay to ask for help when we need it. I think what's most important is that we're trying our best, and that we're committed to our family's well-being. It's not about comparing ourselves to others or feeling like we're failing in some way. It's about being faithful to our values and our relationship with God. As a Christian, I believe that God is our ultimate provider, and that He uses us to provide for our families in ways that are unique to each of us. So, no, I don't think you're a failure for not being able to provide for your family. I think you're just starting on a journey of growth and learning, and that's something to be celebrated.
