1 Peter 5:10

”And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”

I’ve been reflecting on this a lot lately. In the past few months, I’ve completely turned my life upside down. Comparing myself year over year, I’m in a worse position but I know that to get the things that I want in life I need to go through this period which feels like hell.

This period of hell is the suffering that God will put me through to teach me what it feels like to be ok when at the lows, and ok when at the highs.

So although I know my position (from a materialistic standpoint) may look worse, I know what’s ahead for me, and I accept this path that I’m on. I can’t expect to have the success on the other side if I don’t know what it feels like to have nothing. This period of hell is going to teach me to have more empathy and appreciation for the people I work with in the future, and for the people who choose to be on the same journey as me.

This is the price of building a company, and I’m all in for it.
