Working For God
Man's work for God, no matter how well intentioned cannot have any corrupt stones in it's foundation.
Just one greedy person in the chain of command can derail all of the good intentions of the rest.
God represents perfection, therefore all involved must comply to a higher standard.
Without such compliance the noblest intentions will fail, all evil must be removed before God will allow great things to happen where His name is involved.
An organization based on a crumbling foundation will never stand and when it falls it will destroy the most ardent of souls.
It is better not to start a noble project and to have it fail and have the failure blamed on innocent people who have a righteous heart.
Evil is rampant in this sin filled world and the temptations great, especially when it comes to money and power.
It is better to die a pauper in the eyes of the world and have a heart tempered by the love of God, than to die the richest and most powerful person in the world under the sadistic control of Satan.
Neither wealth nor power can buy one moment of peace or one iota of God's love.
Be at peace with what you have and kneel before the throne of God in submission to His will and He will bless you and supply you with your every need.
Wealth and power is not the answer to our earthly problems, God is the answer to all conflicts of the mind and soul.
With God and His will fulfilled in our lives we can accomplish anything that is noble and to the benefit to our fellowman.
Become as servants willing to give your lives to the cause that God has called you to fulfill and success will follow, rely on self and wordly power and failure is assured and many there are who fall to the temptations of the flesh.
