Today, I want to speak to the heart of a struggle many of us face: the worry and fear that comes when you can’t pay the bills. It’s a heavy burden, one that can feel all-consuming, draining your joy and leaving you questioning how you’ll make it through. But in the midst of this struggle, I want to remind you that you are not alone. When you can’t pay the bills, you can trust God to provide. ________________________________________ Empathy: Sister, I see you. I see the sleepless nights, the anxiety, and the tears. I know the weight of wondering how you’ll cover rent, utilities, or groceries. Maybe you’ve tried everything—cutting back expenses, picking up extra work, even borrowing—but it still feels like it’s not enough. That fear can make you feel stuck and powerless, as if there’s no way out. It’s okay to acknowledge that this is hard. You’re human, and this struggle is real. But you’re not walking through it alone—God is right there with you. ________________________________________ Reframing the Focus: When financial struggles overwhelm us, it’s easy to focus on what’s lacking. But what if this challenge is an opportunity to lean into God’s promises? God is our ultimate provider. He knows our needs before we even speak them, and He cares deeply about every detail of our lives. This isn’t about ignoring the practical realities—it’s about shifting your perspective from fear to faith. Instead of asking, “How can I fix this?” start asking, “God, how are You working in this situation?” ________________________________________
