I know I’m talking to some men who haven’t even thought about what you’ll get your wife for Christmas yet. Right? I understand. It still seems early to you Christmas Eve shoppers. Maybe you’ve thought about it, but not being as in tune with things like this as your wife is, you haven’t a clue what to get her. It’s the same problem every year.

Sow for yourselves righteousness, reap the fruit of unfailing love, and break up your unplowed ground; for it is time to seek the LORD, until He comes and showers righteousness upon you. (Hosea 10:12). As I read the Scriptures, here are 3 things I know about God: God wants people to seek Him – From the beginning of time, God has been calling His creation into fellowship with Him.

When I consider companies like Apple, Facebook, Google and Amazon, the one constant I think of is change. Interestingly, after I typed that first sentence, I Googled “ Most Innovative Companies ” and found Fast’s list for 2012. How close do you think I got to their list? See for yourself HERE. But, don’t be impressed with my guesswork.

Endurance. I previously wrote “ One Secret of Leaders with Long-Term Success “ I still believe that’s a powerful part of leadership. At the same time, I talk with leaders (mostly pastors) every week who are questioning if they can continue to lead in their current positions. Sometimes the pressure of leadership is more than one can bear.

My childhood pastor preached for me recently. He is 93 years old and still preaching almost weekly. He continues to be one of my mentors in ministry today. He called me the following week…It was one of the most humbling phone calls I ever received. It went something like this: Ron, I want you to know I’m proud of you. You had some difficult family situations growing up.

A boy struggles… Knowing what it means to become a man… What courage, honor, and strength really looks like… When to take a risk… A girl struggles… Understanding her beauty and value… Sensing self confidence and independence. To demand respect and equality… I’ve been convicted lately, that many times the orphans of today… Are the fatherless… (And many times the widows are the single mothers…).
