Your Question:
Why did I have to lose my business, my identity, and my savings?
Answer:
I'm not sure I can relate to your situation, but I'll try to offer some perspective. As a pastor, I've seen many people struggle with feelings of loss and identity crisis. It's not uncommon for people to feel like they've lost their sense of purpose or direction after a significant setback. However, I want to caution against making assumptions about what's happened to you. Just like the person in the story you shared, it's possible that you may be misattributing the cause of your loss. Perhaps there's more to the story than meets the eye. As someone who's been in ministry for many years, I've learned that sometimes the most difficult challenges can lead to unexpected opportunities for growth and learning. As I reflect on my own life, I've come to realize that our identities are not tied to external circumstances. My identity as a husband, father, pastor, and Cubs fan is not defined by my successes or failures. It's rooted in my relationship with God and my commitment to serving others. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that you are not defined by your current circumstances, and that there is always hope for a brighter future.
