What To Do First to Make a Profit

The PF Women Team at our Annual Team Retreat  ~ 2018 Today on Seth Godin's blog, he said: It's tempting to decide to make a profit first, then invest in training, people, facilities, promotion, customer service and most of all, doing important work.

Although I have a few meetings and work projects today, I will be taking a significant time today to pray, and I'm also doing a fast today.  I am focusing  for some specific needs, particularly for a man in our congregation, Bob, who is having colon cancer surgery tomorrow.   (I'd appreciate it if  my readers breathe a prayer for him today and tomorrow as well.  Thank you!)

It's a privilege for me to do this for my friends.  History belongs to those who pray.  I want to be a history maker.

Will do ~ you have been covered this afternoon. I have prayed for many, most posted on facebook which appears to be where most are reading from...since my blog rolls over to there. :)
