Jack Hale Sales Manager ENVIROWEST A Salt Lake native, gradu- ate from the University of Utah, started in business as a sales rep for a major 011 company. But I left, wanting my own company, and thought I had found my niche in the construction business. We had a struggle, but made a good living for three years. As the company grew, however, so did the problems and the debts. realized we were in trouble, but it was a tremendous shock when my CPA suggested filing I bankruptcy as the solu- tion. My mind frantically searched fora way to prevent that kind of failure. I contacted as many of my creditors as I could, but three a day was emotionally all I could handle. At night I was so keyed up and concerned that I couldnt sleep. Thoughts of suicide came but felt that was a oneway ticket to hell. I began to pray fervently for help along with my wife. One night we told God in desperation that in ten days I would have to file for bankruptcy. It was then, finally, that we listened. My wife had some immediate answers and shared them with me. I felt this was Gods answer to our joint prayer and applied them. Inside a month, with Gods help, I found three people who went together and bought my company. I Gods love not only solved my immediate problem . It did much more. Through Christ I found a career in a field that has given me much personal satisfaction and reward, and that has enabled me to share my feelings with others. Thanks to answered prayer, my wife and I now have a peace, love and joy in our lives we never believed possible. You, too, can have your prayers answered.
