Spirituality & FamilyYour spiritual self has the ability to connect with the unseen forces that guide our universe. People may call this force God, Allah, karma, or the spiritual realm. Opening your spiritual self to this force, or presence, maximizes your energy. You only have to master the controllable factors; depend on God to manage the rest.
During the days of Christ, religious leaders were proud, boastful men. Secure in their upper class status, they enjoyed great power. They bragged about their spiritual and physical riches. They saw themselves as better than most men and thus did not need anyone's help. However, those who were 'poor in spirit' felt 'wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked'. In other words, they needed help! Although most successful entrepreneurs may not see themselves as 'wretched, miserable, poor, blind, or naked', they understand they will never achieve long-term success unless they master the art of seeking and gaining help from others. No person is an island and no person stands alone. Entrepreneurs who are not as successful as they could be often allow pride to blind them to their need to ask for help. Learn to be 'poor in spirit' and you'll be amazed at the wonderful things you'll be able to do and enjoy. Scripture of Encouragement"He opened His mouth, and taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 5:2,3) |
