I lost everything but FAITH✨

In June my lease expired on an overly expensive apartment in Uptown Chicago. Me and my wife separated realizing our paths no longer aligned.💔 I had nowhere to go barely anyone to turn to I slept from couch to couch. Praying that this was the bottom I had to get up from. I slept in my truck for a month had the police called on me. I prayed that that was the bottom I had to get up from. I have such a hard time asking for help some days I didn’t eat. I door dashed and worked a full time job my transmission gave out on my truck. I thought my life was over I thought that was my sign to throw in the towel because that was the real bottom with no help and no one I could really depend on. I found my light at the end of the tunnel a spirit that gave me the motivation when I almost lost my will to live. A soul that held me up when life decide to toss me around. Weeping may endure for a night but Joy comes in the morning. #newapartment

... Read moreIn today's fast-paced and demanding world, many individuals face overwhelming challenges. From financial difficulties to personal crises, it’s crucial to find coping strategies and support. Sharing my story, I highlight that moments of despair can pave the way to inner strength and resilience. Engaging with community support, whether from friends or through social platforms, can provide resources and encouragement. Learning to ask for help, cultivating positive relationships, and practicing self-care can significantly impact recovering from hardships. It’s also vital to foster a mindset of gratitude and faith, as this can help transform our perspective during tough times. Remember, you are not alone in your struggles, and there is hope in seeking help and sharing your journey with others. #mentalhealth #resilience #communitysupport

The She Lost Everything… But God Didn’t Lose Her
Naomi didn’t just go through a hard time… she lost everything. Her husband. Her sons. Her future. And she came back empty… saying, “Don’t call me Naomi.” Because pain has a way of making you feel like you’re no longer the same person. Maybe you’ve felt that too. Like life hit you

Reminder about faith💜
Faith is choosing to believe in something we cannot see. Faith is sometimes knowingly trusting in the unknown. It is being strong when we face adversity, and having courage when we face the inevitable. What we tend to see as a permanent condition, God sees a a temporary situation. What you perceive
