Let’s all be honest: business can be really hard. Even after seven years in business, I still have plenty of hard days in my own business and days (or even just moments) where business feels overwhelming and uncertain. Today, I want to share with you 4 encouraging bible verses for when hard times come, and I hope that these will comfort you whether you are a Christian business owner or not. And, I’m not just reading the Bible verses, I’m talking through them with you as well to help you apply it to your life right now! 

If you have been struggling to guard your heart against negative thoughts or hurtful reviews, or you find yourself turning to Google before you turn to God, I want to encourage you to acknowledge what you are giving power to and why. With the second two scriptures, I want to encourage you to come back to God, seek him in all things, and to let go and rest. I know it can be hard sometimes.
