I am a part of two business ventures that are experiencing major turmoil between myself and the various partners in the deal. Ultimately what has transpired is that we all had good intentions when we decided to undetake these projects but with the recent market challenges we all have reacted in different ways given our styles and personalities to get our money out of these projects. Last week it appeared we were all going to go our own ways with little confrontation and on Friday my partner and I were caught off guard by some actions undertaken by our other partners. At this moment we are unsure about how everything is going to shake out but I keep repeating the verse "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding (ref.)" In my mind I believe that God will ultimately use all things for His good but it is hard to not try and act without Him. I am learning to turn my worries into prayers and am asking God to help me with patience and perserverance.
