Olive Tree Business in Christ
To reveal the heart of God through gospel centred business
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. (John 13:34) Many, many times I have asked our Lord, Jesus Christ, to give me direction in His ways. Many times I have felt lost in the instruction to create jobs. In the beginning (2001 - 2004) I could not understand how to create jobs in a world that has no winning recipe for such an important task. On every single occasion that I then asked God to direct me, He gave me the answer to focus on the love. I responded many times with the arrogant opinion: "God, love is a soft issue. Business is a tough thing. I first need to understand the tough things, then the soft issues will be easy!" I was totally stupid and ignorant of the ways of God. Fortunately, there came a day when the penny started to drop. God is love! His valuta is love. His ways are founded in love. He will never allow us to achieve anything outside the "universe" of love. For every instruction and/or word and/or vision and/or dream that we receive from God, we must know the foundation, structure, activities, or any other necessity as it is rooted in love. There is zero real logic in creating jobs just for the sake of a salary or money. Too much money is only spent to please the desires of man. The desires of man only lead to death. Jobs must be created on and within the foundation of love. Then we will have the eternal value as we "work the earth" and LIFE will be evident from the effort. |
