Proverbs 3:5-6 (MSG) Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track.
The measure of a Christian leader is how well that leader weaves his/her faith into the fabric of living both at home and at work.
Listening to God’s voice in everything we do takes intentionality, discipline and a determination to be humble, even in business problem-solving. We are often too caught up in the myth of Hollywood that we are autonomous, independent leaders and find ourselves just responding and reacting, that we forget about relying.
This verse is devoid of meaning if we relegate God to Sunday and forget Him Monday to Saturday. In the world of advertising/marketing finding a 7-day committed Believer is a breath of fresh air and one such man is Ray Brown, founder of DRB Partners. (http://www.drbpartners.com/) On his desk is a little plaque with verse 5 applied to it- a reminder to him and others that his faith means something to him and how he runs his business - intentionality, discipline and determination in action.
Who do you trust and listen to: myth makers or your Maker?
