How Association Influences Your Purpose




The How Of Association


Andrew Carnegie said, 'It marks a big step in your development when you realise that other people can help you do a better job than you can do by yourself.' (After all, you can't whistle a symphony; it takes an orchestra!) Your future is connected to certain people. Without them your destiny will be incomplete. If you're humble enough to accept that, your possibilities are unlimited.

A key player in the Billy Graham Association was his childhood friend, Grady Wilson. In 1948 Billy asked Grady to come and work with him. At first he said no, but Billy persisted: 'God's told me you're to come and work with me. I need an evangelist; somebody who knows me and my ministry, somebody I can trust.' 'I didn't want to come,' Wilson later recalled. 'After all, I already had a successful ministry of my own holding citywide crusades.' But after praying he made the decision to follow Billy Graham (and God). He set aside his own dreams to be part of another man's. That decision made a huge difference, not only in his life but also in the lives of the multitudes they reached together until Grady Wilson's death.

Sometimes you have to sacrifice a smaller dream in order to fulfill a bigger one. It takes both courage and humility to do that. But look at the results. Heaven alone knows the impact that Grady Wilson and Billy Graham had together. And what was Wilson's take on his decision? 'I never regretted it!'

HOW TO TEACH A TODDLER HOW PARENTS EARN MONEY

Image
Children often feel bad when they approach us, as parents for something they want to buy and we tell them there is no money or we can't buy it now. To some of them: " Daddy don't just want to buy it " or " mummy is just being difficult ".  It forms a bad pattern when children get used to the culture of " there is no money", "No you can not have it", "We can not buy it now", "Stop wasting my money", "Monies are not plucked on trees", "do you think I steal money" and much more. Many children make a request because they know and believe it is Daddy and mummy's responsibility to provide everything and whenever this fails to happen, they feel less loved. It might be just best to enlighten them about how people earn money or income and how money circulates. When children are made to understand how salaries are being paid then they would be more considerate rather than being wasteful or un
