Giving


I know that we are a consuming nation. It seems the more stuff we accumulate, the more important we become. However, in doing business God's way, giving is a significant factor to success. The truth is that no one ever received something great without giving something costly. The greatest business leaders are successful because they are willing to take great risks despite the costs. What are you willing to give up in order to see your dreams manifest? Are you willing to give up that very thing that is the most precious to you? Is immediate satisfaction more important to you than long-term rewards? We were born to give. Many of the greatest philanthropists would tell you that the act of giving produces an unexplainable satisfaction and contentment. They would tell you that there is no cost that can replace that feeling. Giving lets us know that we are connected to a purpose that is greater than ourselves and that purpose involves our neighbors. We need one another to thrive. My success depends on your success. The world measures success through gain but true success God's way is knowing that you have helped to empower others with the resources God has entrusted to you.
