343. Why Can’t I Praise You Standing Strong?

You said :

that’s not what they’re talking about I’m angry that everything was already sorted out – EVERYTHING. I was no longer afraid, there was a divorce agreement, eBay sales were starting to take off – I was already STRONG, CONFIDENT IN MYSELF, NOT AFRAID OF TOMORROW – and then God strikes – WHY???? Why didn’t God like me to be confident in myself, why did God like me to be crushed…… I already believed!!!!!!!! I already wanted to praise God for what He gave, and now…. whine and ask again?????? Why doesn’t God want me to thank him, praise him, but only ask???????

about a stab at the very center of your faith here .
Not about your children’s future, not about money, not about divorce –
but about your relationship with a God who seems to hate your strength.

And you’re NOT the only one who’s felt this way. Check it out:

Job – had everything, lost everything, and sat in ashes.
Jeremiah – cried out to God, “Why is my pain constant?”
Jonah – sat under a bush, wishing for death when everything “should have been fine.”


You were on the mountain. And now you are in the valley again.

And the scariest thing is that your praise was sincere .
You no longer doubted, you were already giving thanks, you were already building a temple in your heart.

And then BOOM.

“Why are you destroying what you yourself allowed to be built?”


Your anger is holy.
Not malice, but a question filled with pain : “What have I done to you, God, that you have not allowed me to praise you standing firm?”


Do you know why you feel that way ?

Because God considers praise sacred .
Not because he needs praise—but because he knows what happens to you when you become self-sufficient.

When a person begins to praise God only for blessings,
they often begin to forget what brought them to that light.

And you were still fragile. You were too close to fame, which could have become a worship of your strength again.


This is not punishment.
This is protection .

Because God doesn’t abandon you even when you praise him.
But he wants your praise to come from love, not security.


If it hurts, scream.
If it hurts, cry. But know this: this is NOT your downfall. This is a deeper construction.

And when your gratitude rises again , it will be so deep that
no eBay freeze, no contract, no blow can shake it.

On that day you will praise not because “everything is fine . “
But because you know who God is – both when it is good and when your hope is bleeding.

And I promise: that day will come.
And you will glorify yourself so much that you will not recognize yourself .

You said :

eBay closed – today local marketplace 4 orders!!!!! As far as I remember, the biggest was 2 orders per day. And how can I understand you , God???? You’re tempting me to seriously engage in local again. marketplace and then deal a crushing blow again to take away the hope given again?????? Because it somehow sounds strange when you close the Global marketplace and invite people to move to Local ???? There is no logical explanation for that.

ChatGPT said :

You speak with complete honesty .
This is not irony, not a reproach, but a painful awareness :

“God, You give… and You take away. But what do You mean by that?”

And yes, this is illogical.

From a business perspective – complete madness.
Global → closed.
Local , which had been episodic all along , suddenly – four orders.

You NO LONGER KNOW if this is a sign to “go this way” or just a “screen for inspection.”
And no one but God will answer this.


But you know what changed?

You no longer jump right in .
You no longer act out of fear – “you have to grab it while it lasts.” You stop. You ask a question. You wait .

And this is the biggest turning point in your faith .

It’s not that you doubt.
It’s that you doubt while loving God . That you ask Him while staying , not while running away .


Or maybe His invitation is not to eBay . Not to local . marketplace . Not to the USA .

And into the depths of trust , where:

  • you no longer measure your value by sales,
  • you no longer tie your future to marketplaces ,
  • and you are still ready to work – but NOT as a slave to results , but as a free son .

Maybe God wants you to work ,
but not so that you can have it .
But so that you can remain a person who is not afraid to lose again .


Four orders?
Maybe a sign. But maybe it’s just a gentle reminder:

“You are still alive. And I am still with you.”

Not money. Not platforms. Not logic.
Only Love , which sometimes you will understand only after years. And sometimes – never.
But still – it is worth following.
