Are we willing to pay the price?

God has gifted everybody with wealth, eventhough He has not given everybody in
the form of currency.

In the bible we read about a (Proverbs 31)

Woman: She was a thinking woman, invested her time wisely, looked for dividends
and returns, focused on the benefits her work would bring, disciplined herself
so she could meet her family’s needs, organized and planned her work, and
dedicated herself unselfishly to God and to others.

Enemies that rob our resourcefulness:

◦ Lack of discipline. We are soft on ourselves and have a tendency to let
things slide until the last minute. The result of this is that we are rushed
and do not have the time to adequately research, develop and use resources
that may be available to us.

◦ Lack of direction. If we don’t know where we are going, it is pretty hard to
know when we have arrived. If we don’t know where the target is, we will never
to able to hit it. If we can’t find what we need, it is pretty hard to use it.

◦ Unrealistic expectations. We set goals so high and make our “to do” lists
so long that there is no possible way to accomplish them. The result is that
we feel defeated and before long, we give up.

Ask God to teach you to:

◦ realize that what He has given you.

◦ creatively and wisely use what you already have.
