Changing the World

Today's business model really isn't that much different than the one of yesterday.  Maximize profits!  That's really what most businesses are about.  How can I squeeze as much money out of the market possible.  Exercising this model can have great financial reward, but at what cost.  This is Cain's business model, and a lifetime of creating such a business can destroy us.  What's really important?  How can we make a change in the world?  We can easily move away from the business of Cain by moving towards the business of God.  The difference is Cain was in the business of himself, and God is in the business of others.  Jesus Christ is our master teacher.  He went about doing good, and serving others.  It is likely impossible for us to make a living without making money somehow, but we can consider what we can do to contribute to the world by putting the needs of others before our own.  Cain asked, "am I my brothers keeper?"  A question he knew the answer to, but merely asked to mock God.  Yes, you are, and yes you ought to be, "Let every man esteem his brother as himself."  A question we ought to ask ourselves in business is this, "how can I be someone who rescues, who have I rescued recently?"  By asking ourselves these questions we can become a person that really changes the world for the better.
