Quote # 3- The Wisdom Garden (Volume 1)
The
system of this world is designed to exploit those who come to it with
desperation to draw something from it but cannot stand those who come to it
searching for opportunities to give - Coach Tarie
Most people approach different arenas in
life searching for opportunities to get the most they can get. I have noticed
that this approach increases risks of exploitation or loss of precious
resources. Many are frustrated as they approach life this way and always find
themselves feeling shortchanged and needing more.
Businesses fail to thrive when started from
the search for money. Great businesses succeed when started from identified
needs to be met. Marriages are failing as men look for what they can get out of
women. They are driven by lustful desires for sex and it explains why sex is
selling more than most things. It is however so sad how many have been enslaved
by this pursuit of sex. Marriages are ripped apart, children left to suffer,
immorality increasing as the lust and craving for sex is ever increasing.
The same is on the other end as women are
looking for what they can get from the men and it is usually the material
resources. Many end up being exploited and not enjoying the wealth and
resources that they will be pursuing. Things will be different if people would
look at what they have to put on the table of marriage and get in with a
motivation to give away the best of themselves.
The same applies in people’s pursuit of
employment. If you seek employment with a focus on the monetary return, you
will be exploited. People who are desperate for money are made to work in the
most appalling working conditions. People who have exceptional abilities and
skills to give away, and approach the working environment with what they have
to give, are usually difficult to replace and are usually rewarded with the
best of working conditions and live fulfilled lives.
The same is true in all facets of life. The
world will never forget politicians who found themselves in office because they
had a lot on their plate to give for the betterment of humanity whilst those
who pursued political offices for material gain where manipulated by the system
and many sold their souls and birthrights and in the long run became everyone’s
enemies.
Whenever you feel exploited and abused,
flip the coin and start to look for ways in which you can begin to add value.
Put little focus on the value you want to receive and more on the value you can
add. Freedom will come to you with the more value you will be adding.
'It
is more blessed to give than to receive.' [Acts 20:35]
In other words, the Lord was saying, Life
is more meaningful when you are giving than when you are receiving.
