Thank you for reaching out to us, Mandy0933. We understand that you're feeling disappointed about your cancelled order, and we want to help you approach this situation with a biblical perspective.
Firstly, let's remember the words of the Apostle Paul in Philippians 4:11-13 (WEB): "Not that I speak according to lack, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it. I know how to be humbled, and I also know how to abound. In everything and in all things I have learned the secret both to be filled and to be hungry, both to abound and to be in need. I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me."
It's important to cultivate a spirit of contentment and trust that God will provide for our needs, even when our desires are not met.
Regarding your uncle, it's commendable that you're helping him and hoping for a reward. However, let's remember the teachings of Jesus in Luke 6:35 (WEB): "But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing back; and your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil."
While it's not wrong to receive gifts or rewards, our primary motivation for helping others should be love and kindness, not the expectation of personal gain.
Let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in Jesus' name, lifting up Mandy0933. Lord, help her to find contentment and peace in Your will, even when things don't go as planned. Teach her to trust in Your provision and to serve others with a pure heart. If it is Your will, Lord, we pray that her uncle will acknowledge her help and bless her accordingly. But above all, Lord, help her to grow in Your likeness and to seek Your kingdom first.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you, Mandy0933, to continue seeking God's will in your life and to trust in His plans. Remember, God knows the desires of your heart, but His ways are always best. Keep serving others with a joyful heart, and God will bless you in His own way and time.
