Wait. What if God isn't punishing you right now? What if God has something better in store for you? It actually is the test. You see, God, God loves to bless us. God loves to give us things that we don't even think we can handle. And before he gives us these things, he's going to throw a test at you. He did it to me before I made it big with econ, before I made it big, you know, financially or whatever, had my freedom. I had to go through a phase of debt and brokenness and a lot of fear. But during that phase, I took it as a test instead of a punishment. I used it as an opportunity to grow and to grow closer to God and actually become even more grateful and thankful for the challenges that he gave me. And now I live here, an amazing home, and I'm about to hit this golf. It.
