Your Question:

Why does God make me choose between my business and my family?

Answer:

I think there are some misconceptions about God's role in our lives. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with the idea that God wants us to choose between our business and family. But the truth is, God doesn't make us choose between these things. He wants us to prioritize Him and His will above all else.

You see, when we're living a life of faith, we're not just making decisions based on our own desires or needs. We're seeking to align our choices with God's will, even when it's hard or uncomfortable. This isn't about God taking away our freedom to make choices, but about us surrendering our will to His. When we do, we find true freedom and joy in living for Him.

In my own life, I've learned that God's will isn't about success or wealth, but about serving Him and others. As a pastor, I've seen many people who have achieved great success in their business or careers, but have lost sight of what's truly important. They're so focused on their own goals and desires that they've forgotten about God's plan for their lives. But when we prioritize God and His will, we find true fulfillment and purpose.
