We must have a river mentality, not a pie mentality wrt to God's blessings
As I walked past this water feature in a restaurant in Dongguan to have dinner with a tycoon of a bread/biscuit/cakes company I thought of God's overflowing blessings to me.
God does not have to bless person A at the expense of person B. His blessings are continual like a river. Some live in a nation where there is racial discrimination wrt to business and educational opportunities. It does not matter if we are discriminated against even in our country of birth because of our race as the Lord's blessings is a flowing river not a pie that has to be shared.
If our nation can believe that God by whatever name their religion calls Him, can bless us like a river flowing to our lives than there is no need for discrimination, quotas for government tenders, share equity etc. God is always creating and scientists believe that the universe is ever expanding. Likewise we have the creative powers to create wealth as God has given us the anointing. With government protection and hand-outs, the God-given creativity can never be nurtured. All talk of high income nation by 2020 is just hot-air.
