Pay a bill. Get another bill.
Work. Work. WORK.
The check engine light comes on.
CARD DECLINED.
Wait… WHY IS MY CARD DECLINED?!
Try it again.
TRANSACTION APPROVED.
Thank goodness.
Mow the lawn. Feed the animals. Figure out dinner. Go to sleep.
WAKE UP!
Work. Work. Work.
The groceries you just bought are already gone. The tire is low. Google charged you another $9.99 for something you forgot you subscribed to.
You keep telling yourself you’ll take a day off… maybe next week.
Your kid wants a toy. The school needs money. The dog throws up. Somebody texts, “ARE YOU COMING?”
I DON’T KNOW!
Rent is due. The electric bill is due. Insurance is due.
PAYROLL IS IN A FEW DAYS… AGAIN.
I have so much respect and compassion for small business owners who are barely holding it together right now.
They’re not lazy.
They’re not failing.
They’re not falling behind because they don’t care.
They’re carrying responsibilities most people never see while trying to keep their families fed, their employees paid, and their businesses moving forward.
Sometimes life feels like one long game of “One More Thing.”
Just when you think you’ve caught up, something else breaks, another bill shows up, or a new problem lands on your plate.
There are seasons when it feels like everything is happening at once. The weight gets heavy, the answers seem far away, and peace can feel impossible to find.
But those are often the moments when we need to trust God the most.
We were never meant to carry every burden on our own. When we surrender our worries, fears, and plans to Him, we can rest in the promise that He will provide exactly what we need, exactly when we need it.
Peace doesn’t come from having everything figured out.
It comes from knowing the One who does. 🙏
From one business owner to another , one day we will say we made it 🫡🇺🇸
