Emotions holds a great part in one's day to day activities. Sometimes you feel bad, and sometimes you also feel good. But allowing the bad feelings get hold of you for a very long time can be dangerous.

Welcome to my blog and I say to myself self "welcome back to emotions and feelings. It has been a while that I visited here. Reasons been that I have got a lot of things to attend to, but thank God that today I have the opportunity to share my little experience in the past.

Few years back I had problem with my business which landed me into so much debt that I can't begin to explain how it grew to that level. It all started when I was into selling of recharge cards. You know that when you see someone holding money in a large quantity without knowing how he or she came about the money, you may be thinking that the individual is a rich person.

The business involves going to buy recharge cards from the dealers in debt, sale and take the money back to them to collect another one. I continued like that until one faithful morning when some men came to the shop to dup me. I wasn't to careful, so I feel into their trap. From that moment my debt kept increasing. All effort to reduce it fell abortive. It came to a moment when I could not work the street like a free person. I had to hide to do certain things. For me to Even go to the market, I must take a hidden road that people will not see me.

It got to the extend that I started thinking of ending it by ending my life. Before that moment, I do hear of people who tried to take their lives because of one problem or the other, and I will end up saying that there should not be any reason why someone will want to take his/her life. But when it got to my turn, I now know that it is easier said than done.

At that moment of frustration for me , someone introduced me to the Bible, which he said can give peace to a troubled soul. I accepted because I have got no choice. As I started reading the word of God and began to apply it to my life, I started having peace. Even though at that time in have not cleared my debt, but I now have the courage to face it squarely.

By God's grace I am able to overcome that big problem that I thought was impossible to fix. Though it took time to pay, but I am alive today to give my testimony, and also to encourage others not to give up.
馃檹 Don't give up, your solution may come at the last minute.
