Surely everyone has a desire to have an established finance. This makes us do all the things we can. For some people, they choose to work in a big company and the others prefer building their own business. Often we seek for and read articles or magazine to develop the business. Most of us may have done what's been written on them then we find out that we can't only rely on our asset, wealth, colleagues, workers and the other factors.
Let's read the following illustration and later we may relate it to our lives.
There was a young man who had a plan to build a business but still had no idea what to do. The only thing on his mind was to build his own business. He read and studied many reference books, however, he hadn't found any idea. Then, he knelt down and prayed. After saying a prayer, he read the Bible. He read the story of Abraham and Jacob and found out that they were very rich in livestock. He also read the story of Joseph in Egypt. God then opened his mind. He got a wisdom for his business and gave thanks to God. And it was not a coincidence if this young man loved dog and bird. As the result, he started his animal breeding business As the time went by, his business showed a good development. God sent him many customers. His business was so blessed and he became a successful businessman.
Whether we realize or not, our effort and perseverance are not enough to experience a financial transformation. There is one thing we must do, that is seeking for the wisdom of God. God opens our mind so that we can see many opportunities which God has provided for us. Wisdom makes us understand His way so we can experience a victory and success in life.
