“The men who have done the most for God in this world have been early on their knees.” This quote from E.M. Bounds would work perfectly well without the word “early.” It would then say, “The men who have done the most for God in this world have been on their knees.” Taken that way, it would cause us to reflect on the close connection between prayer and a biblical view of productivity—doing good for others to the glory of God. We could then point to the prayer habits of Jesus or the apostle Paul, both of whom prayed constantly and did so much for God in this world.See AlsoWeekend A La Carte (December 28)Together We Pray 2024A La Carte (June 19)

These are strange days in Canada. The incoming President of the United States has suddenly promised to slap a 25% tariff on cross-border trade—a tariff that has the potential to devastate the Canadian economy. Some suggest it could cost Canada a 3% hit to its economy and the loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs. At the same time, he is openly mocking Canada’s Prime Minister, trolling the country by suggesting it voluntarily become America’s 51st state, and even stating he will deploy economic force to annex the country. As is so often the case with Donald Trump, it’s difficult to know the degree to which he is serious and the degree to which he is merely deploying negotiation tactics and shows of strength.See AlsoA Canada Day Family UpdateA La Carte (9/3)Outsourcing and Birthrates
