Welcome

Staying prepared is not only a practical way to seize

opportunities but also aligns with biblical principles of diligence,

wisdom, and faithful stewardship. Proverbs 22:29 reminds us

that God honors those who refine their abilities and excel in their

work. By consistently practicing and updating the skills we

already possess, we position ourselves to serve effectively and

take advantage of opportunities that come our way.

Practically, brushing up on existing skills involves reviewing the

basics, practicing regularly, and staying current with new

developments in your field. For example, revisiting past projects,

reading up-to-date materials, or taking short courses can

strengthen your expertise. Teaching or mentoring others can also

reinforce your knowledge and reveal areas that need

improvement.

Moreover, staying prepared through continuous learning reflects

a heart of stewardship. God has entrusted each of us with unique

talents and opportunities, and it is our responsibility to develop

and maintain them. By combining diligent practice, reflection,

and a willingness to adapt, we honor God’s gift of skill and

wisdom. Ultimately, being prepared is necessary for fulfilling

our calling, and glorifying God through the excellence of our

work. 

Power House, we have work to do: let’s accelerate!

Yours in Christ,
