Why people become hopeless. Sep 20, 2023

People become hopeless when this happens to them ā€¦Ā when they become faithless.

Iā€™m not saying when people become faithless they stop believing in God.Ā They become faithless when they are unsure of what God will do for them.Ā Then faithlessness develops into full-blown hopelessness.

The offers have come from competitors and turnaround clients. Eventual...

As a young entrepreneur ...
