Now let us be honest with ourselves for a moment. Iam a Christian and so are the people mention in my blog. (367 hits)
On Sunday, my brother and I was having a conversation about rather or not he should do business with this very prominent and well know business couple. The couples business mission is to connect doctors with different hospital sites on location. They oversee all of the doctor's business needs. Most of these doctors are MDs . He met this couple when he was a Medical Director at a hospital the couple had a contract with and they became very good friends. Well , when the offer was made to him , his reason for considering not to except the position they were offering him, was that he did not want to see his friends become more weatheir then he was. Little did he know, they were seriously rich. Not just finacially,but in people skills, friends and Love for helping people. He said when he got honest with himself, he found this thought (envy) was deep inside of him hidden and eating away the blessings God had for him through this couple. " To bring you up a level God can choose what ever and who ever He wants to use to do it. While we were talking he shared that thought with me. Also he said the thought of having them as his boss. Now, think about it why do we not do business with our own family members. Could that be the reason. We don't want to see them prosper. Could it be we don't trust their business choices. For example: I just recently bought a new car. A friend of mine referred me to her dealership agent. Yes, she did get rewarded for her efforts and I was happy for her. Now, my best friend had decided to get a new car and I had referred her to my sales person. She seemed to be interested and we were going to go on the next business day. Well, she decided not to go and the next day she calls me and tells me she got a new car from another dealership. Now, she might not could even tell me why she did not go to my sales guy. Now deep inside most of us have that same issue with helping one another to achieve, because we have not confessed that we have an issue with that. We would rather help someone we know are not struggling or don't even care if you do business with the or not. We just force them to take our moneys. My question to you is have you ever thought about taking the gifts of your own family and putting them all togather and working togather toward a common goal. Try it. This is my family goal. We are planning to trust each other more. To see each family member be accountable for decissions we make togather and learn to save your time and money to help other people.
Well, now that he knows what the hold up is. Now he can move forward. This couple is only in their early 40s and they have been blessed fanicialy since they have been in their early 20s so what God has for you is for you. Just don't sit down on you talents. Don't let fear keep you from venturing out. Don't let I dont have a job rob you of your blessings. Speak those things as they are and remain obedient to our heavenly Father.

Actually this is what my family does and it has been a tremendous blessing working together toward a common goal.
