You Don't Have to Survive!

Most times when I watch television and see less priviledged Africans speak, all they talk about is survival...."we have to look for something to ea"t! Majority of them ALWAYS talk about looking for something to eat. And I then wonder if that is all there is to life....what to eat.

Unfortunately, it is this idea of being concerned ONLY with looking for what to eat that has kept Africa where it is and usually at the mercy of rulers who refer to themselves as "leaders". 

The bad news is that most people just cannot figure out what to do and continue to believe it is the duty of the government to do everything for them!

The good news is that your situation does not have to be like that. Get this into your inner being that "there is no hopeless situation, only people who have grown hopeless about their situation" as truly said by a war general. 

So what makes the difference? Information! Some people may think I am talking about formal education here, but you may want to read my previous post on that subject.

Creating true wealth requires information especially in this age of ours.......the information age. In Sacred Scripture we see King David teach his son Solomon the value of wisdom in Proverbs 4:5-10, "Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. Do not forsake her, and she will preserve you; Love her, and she will keep you.

Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding. Exalt her, and she will promote you; She will bring you honor, when you embrace her. She will place on your head an ornament of grace; A crown of glory she will deliver to you. Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, And the years of your life will be many". (New King James Version)

Note verse 7 that says Wisdom is the principal thing! What this means is that we all need Wisdom in EVERYTHING we do, whether it is relationships, work, business, name it. 

Wisdom is the principal thing and only those who find wisdom find the true meaning of life! So, just what is wisdom?
