Your Question:

How do I cope with the loss of my business?

Answer:

Coping with the loss of a business can be a challenging and trying time. I've seen it firsthand in my own ministry, where I made some poor financial decisions that put our church and university in a difficult spot. But I learned that with God's help, we can come out stronger on the other side. When faced with failure, it's essential to react by faith and not let past mistakes control our future.

I would encourage you to take a proactive approach to handling failure. Determine how you will react when you fail, and pray for God's guidance and strength. It's also crucial to have a strategy in place for overcoming setbacks and to be accountable to someone who can help you stay on track. As the Bible says, "The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O God, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands" (Psalm 138:8).

In my own experience, I've learned that God can use even the most difficult circumstances to bring about growth and strengthening of our faith. I've seen people who have lost their jobs or businesses due to various reasons, including poor decisions or lack of morale. But with God's help, we can rise above these challenges and find new opportunities for success. As I always say to my congregation, "Lord, when I fail, I will trust in your goodness and provision."
