The Real Rainmaker

I am feeling exhausted. And under pressure to achieve phenomenal results in this Radio 702 R1000 Business Challenge. It is a matter of honour. (UK spelling!). But one thing I decided irrevocably from the start, was that I would take 1 day off a week to rest. I don't want to land up in hospital after 6 weeks due to working 20 hours a day! I can do everything humanly possible to bring success to my involvement in this challenge. I can put as many "seeds" (or Beautiful Bracelets) out into the marketplace as possible. But without rain (or sales), it is all fruitless, running to and fro. God brings the rain. So today, I take comfort in the Psalms (since it is Sunday):

Yes, my soul, find rest in God;
    my hope comes from him.
 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
    he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
 My salvation and my honor depend on God;
    he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
Trust in him at all times, you people;
    pour out your hearts to him,
    for God is our refuge.

 Surely the lowborn are but a breath,
    the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance, they are nothing;
    together they are only a breath.
 Do not trust in extortion
    or put vain hope in stolen goods;
though your riches increase,
    do not set your heart on them.

One thing God has spoken,
    two things I have heard:
“Power belongs to you, God,

    and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”;
and, “You reward everyone
    according to what they have done.

(Psalms 62:5-12)
