I actually don't like making prayers for business kinds of things. But this turns out to be really important.
It's kinda hard to explain without going into a lot of detail. But here are the basics. We have a client that is basically 85% of our business. We're currently bidding on a two-year contract to continue doing busines with this client. If we win the contract, then we're guaranteed a third of their printing business. If we don't, we're shut out completely.
If we're shut out completely, chances are our company would go bankrupt.
The final negotiation and evaluation of our proposal is at 1:30pm EST tomorrow. Please pray that it goes well and that God's will be done.
Definitely praying for you & your dad. I completely understand about being self employed and being at the mercy of your customers! I pray that the negotiations go smoothly and your company will continue to do business with this customer.

Let Matt's company win this contract. His company REALLY needs this one! But if You have a better plan, Lord, then may it be done. YOU are the supplier of our needs, and not men. Blessed be Your name, now and forever. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
The meeting lasted for two hours and we were grilled to death. We haven't been told a decision yet. But we've already been called into another meeting... In thirty minutes.
PLEASE PRAY!!!
I didn't think we'd know today, but I have a feeling that we might find out afterall.
My friend Matt and his company is having to spend this weekend doing "double-time" work trying to secure this account. They need Your strength and grace to get the job the done. It will be only by Your empowerment can this be done. Give Mattie the peace of mind and calm reassurance that no matter what happens, You will provide for him and his co-workers. Bless them, Lord, with prosperity in finances and wisdom. For in Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
You and your father are in my prayers as you work this weekend to meet the requirements imoosed by your client. May the Lord's Will be done.
Tim

Do you remember how worried my father and I were about whether or not we'd get this contract with our biggest client. If we didn't get it, well, we'd almost certainly have gone under. They dragged out the process so long it was maddening.
Well guess what, WE GOT IT!!! The Master Agreement was signed at 4:30pm today.
I know it was an old request. But thank you all again for your prayers.
That is great news, Mattie! We understand the stress of having your own business. It's hard when there is a job that can make or break you! I'm so glad this had a happy ending!!!
