Met for breakfast with a great guy today, who has been in my boat in his business/financial life. He has filed bankruptcy, is maxed out on credit, has his house mortgaged out several times to the point of no equity, and he and his wife make about one-half of what I make with my spouse.
Yet Craig has an incredibly peaceful nature about him. He has peace. He said so. He is not worried about anything. He works hard, does his best, knows that the future will be uncertain, but he leaves it all in God's hands.
I try for that ideal, but often fall far short. But I do know that God has carried me through some of the tumult of the past 10 years, and if Craig is an example, then I can push my fear aside and continue on. Press on, in spite of the fear. Continue to ask other people for help, and place my trust in God. He has brought me this far; I see no reason why he will let me fail now, if I allow him.
