Chances are you are not inspiring others to sing along." I gave up a long time ago trying to do anything like that, I have stopped seeing my "song" as worth singing anymore. I just didn't believe it would matter anyway. Funny I have never made the connection until now with my money situation being a result of that decision...... Thank you for this message of truth! It has helped me to see I need to get back up again and get moving, William Jay,

]]> Comment on The Ultimate Tug O’ War: Faith Or Common Sense? by Deacon Bradley http://jayperoni.com/the-ultimate-tug-o-war-faith-or-common-sense/comment-page-1#comment-444 Deacon Bradley Mon, 15 Mar 2010 19:44:17 +0000 http://jayperoni.com/?p=1056#comment-444 Great post Jay! I especially like the very end where you talk about using the skills and resources God provides us to prepare for tomorrow. I'm reminded of the parable of the talents. Although it literally talks about investing money wisely to get a return, it also teaches to use whatever resources God has given us to produce MORE. I have been reminded often lately to NOT find my security in my emergency fund. Thanks for another great reminder! Great post Jay!

As Christians in the financial marketplace, Jesus assigned us one of our key roles in His Sermon on the Mount - Matthew 5:14 " You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden." He continues in verse 16 "Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." God is calling His people in business to be the beacons of doing business His Way! Especially NOW, as our great nation is still experiencing the worse recession, since the Depression of the 1930's. The world doesn't need another Bernie Madoff to show the results of deceit, greed and fraud in the financial world. Now is the time to allow the Light of our Lord Jesus Christ to shine through our business practices. Jesus said it best in John 4:35b "I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest." We've been tasked to "enlighten" the business world that there's another way - God's Way! Visit our website at www.christianangelinvestors. com and see how much we have in common. God is working through both of us and I believe, many, many more fellow Believers in business to change the world we live in. In Him, Bill Murray Christian Angel Investors Network Jay,

It seems to me in those time, He is asking back, "Where do you want to go?" Away is never the answer. Towards seems to be the ticket. Thanks for the thoughts and use of Alice. ~Pirate I’ve met people and have been in a place where I ask for God for direction for a way out and hear nothing concrete.

Away is never the answer. Towards seems to be the ticket.

Homework, homework, homework and a good referral is always best. If you have any doubts don't even think of going forward. Your first instinct is usually right!

I recently met a young financial advisor at a networking group in which I'm a member, but even after having a drink together, multiple sit downs, tons of emails, and plenty of phone conversations.. I'm still hesitant to work with him. BTW.. great list of common mistakes people make! “..you actually fall to the third slot on the totem pole of many advisors..” – This has always been my concern with working with a financial advisor.
