They say that in the real world, it's not WHAT
you know, but WHO you know that counts.
Many of us think that this is especially true when
it comes to getting a SCHOLARSHIP. When you know the right people,
getting a scholarship is no problem ... making it big in the business world
is also no problem ... everything goes smoothly in life if you know the
right people. The bigger and the more important a particular VIP
you know, the greater the success in life.
Wouldn't it be nice if I know the CM or the PM or
the President personally ? Well, I actually know SOMEBODY personally
who is the greater than all the PMs or CMs or Presidents, SOMEBODY who
is the King of kings and Lord of lords ! That person is God our Creator,
Jesus Christ. He made all the CMs, all the PMs, all the Presidents
... He provides for all that we need if we put Him first in
our lives (Matthew 6: 33, 34).
There is a world full of opportunities out there ...
! So many types of scholarships for so many courses from so many
institutions ! However, success in studies does not guarantee you
a scholarship. Neither does success in getting scholarship guarantees
a successful life. Success ultimately depends on WHO you know.
"For I know the plans that I have for you", says the Lord, "Plans for welfare and not for calamity, to give you a future and
a hope". Jeremiah 29:11
Success in life is in the hands of God - do you know Him
? Remember, wise men say it's WHO
you know that counts. What do you say ? If you want to know more about this Jesus, contact
us.
