The owner's manual

As the years go by and I study human development and work in the field I realize more and more that the only factor that can bring about lasting and sustainable development is Jesus Christ. He is the creator of this place we live in and He knows each person in detail. He knows what our strengths, weaknesses, resources and abilities are. He is the Master Business Plan developer and His plans are always for mankind's blessing. I can say now, more than ever, that development without Jesus is short term and less effective.

The sun will rise again

I realize that in these times there are many people who are facing difficulties and trials. The economies of the world are in turmoil and money is showing its unstable foundation. We have to get the ideas that will truly lift us out of our situation. God knows all things and He knows best how we should live to rise above the current state of affairs. We are not bound to the economy of the world, but we should live in the economy of the Kingdom of God. His kingdom principles and ideas will set us apart from our peers. The Lord said we will be the head and not the tail, on top and not at the bottom. We will prosper even in famine as Isaac experienced when he sowed in the dry land in a famine and reaped a hundred fold harvest. Seek God for wisdom and apply His wisdom and see what He will do.

Till later,
