God Loves to Share His Wisdom
“But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. For let that man not think that he will receive anything from the Lord. He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.” (James 1:5-8 WEB)
We must realize that God is so willing to share His wisdom with us.
Do not be like an invited dinner guest who does not dare to take too much food from the table in case he looks greedy.
Such a guest is perhaps not very close to the dinner host, and that is why he does not understand the host’s heart.
If only you knew how many hours of meticulous hard work was required to prepare the feast—you would know how much he wants you to finish all the food!
Take as much as you want, and whatever you need!
God loves it when you take from Him because your faith honors Him, and when you receive from Him, you are empowered to glorify Him.
““In that day you will ask me no questions. Most certainly I tell you, whatever you may ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be made full.” (John 16:23-24 WEB)
As a perfect loving Father, He is delighted to see you smile and laugh with joy.
What wisdom do you need for your life right now?
Believe that when you ask God for it, He will generously give it to you, and He will never condemn you for asking.
If you believe that God is always good to you, then you will surely receive the wisdom that is needed!

Restoration for your Own Mistakes
Perhaps you are thinking, “Yes I know I can expect restoration when the devil attacks me or if I am persecuted. But I am suffering now because of my own mistake. Surely I cannot expect God to restore me? I will have to suffer and pay for my mistake.”
Well, the Gospel of Jesus Christ is called the good news because it is really undeserved favor. Even if you are suffering losses from your own mistakes, you can still expect to receive restoration that is better in quality and/or quantity than before.
I know it sounds too good to be true, but I am not just making that up. Look at Abraham’s story. He told his wife Sarah to lie to everyone in Gerar that she was only his sister.
He did this because Sarah had been renewed in her youth and was exceedingly beautiful. Abraham was afraid that if the people knew that she was his wife, they would kill him and take her for themselves.
After hearing that Sarah was only Abraham’s sister, the king of Gerar, Abimelech, took Sarah into his harem.
Reading this story, it is clear that Abraham is the one at fault. He lied that Sarah was only his sister, and his lies stemmed from cowardice and self-preservation, endangering Sarah’s chastity.
Yet, when God wanted to save Sarah from being violated, He threatened Abimelech and his family with death if he decided not to restore Sarah to Abraham.
“God said to him in the dream, “Yes, I know that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I also withheld you from sinning against me. Therefore I didn’t allow you to touch her. Now therefore, restore the man’s wife. For he is a prophet, and he will pray for you, and you will live. If you don’t restore her, know for sure that you will die, you, and all who are yours.”” (Genesis 20:6-7 WEB)
Shouldn’t it be Abraham who was threatened with death for his cowardice and lies? This is God’s Grace towards the righteous ones who are justified by faith. Even if you make a mistake, God is not punishing you for your sins—His heart is to restore you for the negative consequences of your wrong actions.
What does restore “the man’s wife” mean? Is it just to give Sarah back to Abraham? Let us examine what Abimelech did:
“Abimelech took sheep and cattle, male servants and female servants, and gave them to Abraham, and restored Sarah, his wife, to him. Abimelech said, “Behold, my land is before you. Dwell where it pleases you.” To Sarah he said, “Behold, I have given your brother a thousand pieces of silver. Behold, it is for you a covering of the eyes to all that are with you. In front of all you are vindicated.”” (Genesis 20:14-16 WEB)
Wow, instead of just giving Sarah back to Abraham, Abimelech gave sheep, cattle, servants, land and a thousand pieces of silver to Abraham. Even though Abraham was the originator of the problem, he was enriched through his mistake.
This is what God’s restoration looks like. You never just get the same thing back. It will always be better in quality and/or quantity when He restores you for your losses.
Even though Abraham made mistakes in his life, he had a great relationship with God, such that the Scriptures call him “a friend of God”. Whenever God appeared and spoke to him, he paid attention, delighting in the words and meditated on them.
An example of this would be God’s promise to him that he would have a son who was born of Sarah. Abraham never gave up on that promise, and eventually, he received the fulfillment of it.
“Blessed is the man who doesn’t walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand on the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in Yahweh’s law. On his law he meditates day and night. He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.” (Psalms 1:1-3 WEB)
Although we are born-again and our spirits are righteous, holy and perfect like Jesus, we still live in this body of sinful flesh. Sometimes we get confused, thinking that the fleshly impulses and thoughts are our own. This causes us to make mistakes.
However, if you have a heart for God’s word like Abraham did, even the mistakes you unwittingly make will prosper. What you did may not be good, but God can still turn things around for your good because He is for you, not against you. Since you are righteous in Christ, you can expect to receive restoration for your losses, even if they were caused by your own mistakes!
Learn God’s plan to prosper you in all things through His restoration. If you have lost in any way, you can expect to gain much more/better back. This eBook, “All Things Made New”, may be the most comprehensive book about God’s restoration:

今天, 應該是最炫最酷的一家公司, Robinhood, 上市的一天. 它獲利了嗎? 我想沒有多少投資人會care. 最關心的, 應該是它的營收成長率, 還有股價.
在我們一直追逐科技成長股, 被他們的高營收成長率, 潛在的高報酬昏眩的時候, 會不會忘記他們醜得要命的財務報表?
而在今年, 大家追逐的這些趨勢股表現不佳的時候, 是不是也給了我們一些省思?
其實美股中, 還有很多財務報表漂亮, 但聽起來一點也不有趣(甚至很無聊)的公司, 但他們股價穩定, 長期下來, 也給了投資人很大的回報. 像之前介紹過的POOL, 過去幾年也是平均一年翻一倍的漲幅.
而在IPO中, 也有這類的好公司.
Carrier Global(CARR), 2020年4月上市的IPO, 算是工業類股, 漲了快5倍. 有在獲利. (開利冷氣應該有聽過?就是這家公司)
Academy Sports and Outdoors (ASO), 民生消費股, 也有獲利, 2020年10月上市的IPO, 目前也漲了3倍.
下面這篇文章挺好. 與大家分享. 就像文章作者所提的, 龜兔賽跑, 穩(漲)的烏龜, 不一定會輸.
也祝福大家找到&培養自己的能力圈, 穩穩獲利.
Jim Cramer: The Biggest Thing That Happened Thursday Was the Boring Stuff
No, it wasn't Robinhood or the mega-cap tech companies, it was names we depend on like Carrier Global.
By JIM CRAMER Jul 29, 2021 | 03:38 PM EDT
Stocks quotes in this article: HOOD, FB, PYPL, CARR, RTX, NUE, AGCO, ZM, ALGN, AAPL, EBAY, AMD, XLNX
One of the most glorious things I have seen involving the stock market in ages happened today.
Was it Vlad Tenev ringing the opening bell for his breakthrough, disruptive Robinhood (HOOD) , representing 22 million mostly young new investors? Was it the free-for-all decline in the stock of the "F" in FAANG, Facebook (FB) ? Or the clobbering that Paypal (PYPL) took after what looked to be a good quarter?
Nah. I was bumping into Dave Gitlin, CEO of Carrier Global (CARR) , and his charming daughter, a college student at the University of Wisconsin. They were calmly waiting for me to finish "Squawk on the Street" to say, "Hi," and I couldn't be more thrilled. Because unlike the much ballyhooed Robinhood deal, which seems like a bust, Carrier Global came public back in April 2020 at $12 and today, after tremendous earnings, not sales, but earnings, it made an all-time high at $53, after reporting a terrific number with tremendous HVAC sales, up 31%, and an earnings surprise of 55 cents vs. the 30 cents that Wall Street was expecting.
Carrier, which was spun off when United Technologies merged with Raytheon (RTX) had some tailwinds, like the need to have clean air inside, because of the pandemic and clear air outside because office buildings are responsible for 40% of carbon emissions. But the huge upside surprise and the gigantic buyback belonged to Dave and his team and I that's what I told his daughter. I made sure she knew how proud she should be about how this man made so much money for people. Twelve to 53 in 15 months time is the name of the game.
Look, I am not trying to take away from anything that Robinhood and its co-founder and CEO Vlad Tenev have created. Far from it. They have created billions for themselves and are now letting people participate in their great sales growth. You got a chance to pay a fortune per share and many Robinhoodies did, as tons of stock was allocated to the 22 million people who joined Robinhood, because of a bang up app that every young person seems to know.
I am simply saying that HVAC, yep heating, ventilation and air conditioning is one of the most boring businesses on earth and at times like today, with all of the hoopla of Robinhood it is easy to forget is how lots of money can be made being boring, and I like that. The most exciting thing that happened this year is Carrier helped provide refrigeration for vaccines. That's just fine with me.
Unlike Robinhood, Carrier hasn't brought anyone into the stock market. It's more laser-like focus on air conditioning once spun off from Raytheon means nothing to people. Just Wall Street gibberish. But you have probably walked by a Carrier machine thousands of times and never thought anything of it. Yet, you could have bought it for a song at six times earnings instead of 25 times sales.
The Carriers, with CEOs who pay themselves lavishly but perhaps not excessively, or the Nucor's (NUE) the steel company that's also well managed and sells at six times earnings, represent valuable properties, especially when the U.S. government is about to agree on a trillion dollar infrastructure bill and the country has more than 6% GDP. We don't know why they are re-opening trades or closing trades, delta-variant trades or building and bridge investments. Forgive me, though for comparing the company of Robinhood, with something that may stay special for a while vs. companies that get described as venerable, solid and built to last.
These companies are not rarities. You know people have to eat, right? You know that there would be famine without farming. So why not buy the stock of Agco (AGCO) , No. 2 farm equipment, which went from $40 to $130 in a year and a half without ever being expensive. Combines too boring? Again fine with me. Now that the masks are off -- or at least in some places, although Zoom (ZM) is still crushing it -- I, like many others, including my daughter, didn't like how her teeth looked even as, to me, they were perfect. Dentists tell you to get Align (ALGN) . I wanted them on "Mad Money" but the show was just too darned jammed. The stock's up the most in the S&P 500, with a product that, again, like the Purloined Letter, is right in front of you.
I love tech. Created the term FANG, added the "A" when it was clear that Apple (AAPL) had to take the acronymic stage between another "A" and an "N." I am proud that those who bet against me on Twitter, the legion, are betting against FAANG. I wrote obituaries for a goodly time in my career as a reporter but I never wrote as many as have been penned to talk about the group has already made the ultimate measure on behalf of shareholders.
Oh and it's not like I don't like tech or fin tech. I felt the slings and arrows of Facebook and PayPal today. Facebook's management once again lowered the boom on its future talking about real deceleration in growth. I thought it was too dire. PayPal's Dan Schulman talked about how the separation with its former partner, eBay (EBAY) gets done now and earnings will be hurt. This was one of the least revelatory surprises ever. I think both are practicing UPOD, Underpromising to Overdeliver, and, sure this time might be different, but it's sure been the way they have handled it in the past.
Far better to be in the straight out blow outs like Advance Micro (AMD) which had still one more banner day, this time because the company it is buying, the dowdy Xilinx (XLNX) , a sleepy semiconductor company, had tremendous earnings. The two together could be unassailable and even as AMD is now richly valued it is deservingly so.
I can't wait to hear Vlad Tenev's reflection on Robinhood's debut as a public company and about the novel offering that gave millions of shares to his clients. Vlad's not so much a rags to riches American story. He's a poor Bulgarian to insanely rich American because of his on ingenuity. That's a story with celebrating in itself.
I am simply pointing out that unlike Vlad, whom you would have had invested with when you weren't allowed or able to, Dave Gitlin sure didn't keep you out of the better bet, the stock of HVAC king Carrier.
You did.

Hello Youtube Family,
Today's Vlog:
My Biggest Fear,
Tim's Man Cave,
It's Not Cute, Daddy!
Kicked Out!
I hope you guys enjoyed our Gender Reveal video. To be honest, I knew from the very beginning that I was carrying a little girl but who knew Isaac would be so intuitive too? It warms our hearts so much to know you guys are anticipating Acorn's arrival so much! She's the luckiest acorn in the world. We cannot wait to meet our baby girl! Thank you so much for your sweet messages.
This vlog was supposed to come before the gender reveal but we didn't want to keep you guys waiting for so long so we went ahead and uploaded it first. Nonetheless, hope you enjoy this one. Not going to lie, the thought of giving birth terrifies me so much more this time round. To all the fellow mums out there, I would LOVE your advice on labour and especially "pushing".
Bear with me! I'll be a little busy for the next week or so!!
Love, the Bubz family xo

the man who knew too much 在 pennyccw Youtube 的最佳解答
Allen Iverson earned a bit of immortality last night in the Gund Arena. Playing against the Cleveland Cavaliers and starting poorly before finishing gloriously, Iverson scored a career-high 50 points to become the only rookie ever to score 40 or more points in four consecutive NBA games.
Iverson broke the mark previously held by another Philadelphia rookie named Wilt Chamberlain, who scored 40 or more in three straight games on three different occasions in 1959-60.
The shot that broke the record came with 3 minutes, 37 seconds to play in the 125-118 loss, with the Sixers down by 10 points. It capped a stunning second-half performance by Iverson, whose record-breaking shot was his 11th bucket of the half. Iverson finished 13 of 17 from the field in the second half while scoring 39 points.
``He put on a magnificent display,'' said Cleveland coach Mike Fratello.
When Sixers center Michael Cage was told of the overwhelming accumulation of numbers Iverson put up in the second half, he simply said, ``Wow.''
As the game, another Sixers loss, ended, the 20,009 in the Gund Arena rose from their seats to give Iverson a cheering ovation and Fratello pulled the rookie to the sidelines and whispered in his ear.
``Those things are personal,'' Iverson said when asked what he was told. ``But he told me to keep my head up, to not pay attention to what you guys write about me, to keep playing basketball, doing what I love.''
In the last five games, Iverson has scored 210 points. The Sixers have lost their last seven.
Despite all Iverson could do, in a strange, physical, poorly officiated game, the Sixers lost again. Despite shaving the Cavs' lead to seven three times in the fourth quarter, Philadelphia dropped its 57th decision of the season.
As it was in Friday's loss to Milwaukee - and as it probably will be in the season's five remaining games - the Sixers' defense was the definition of porous. The most points the deliberate, low-scoring Cavs had previously scored in a game this season was 108.
But in this sad-sack season, which winds to a close Saturday in Atlanta, there have been few reasons for the Sixers to celebrate. Last night, as Iverson played his fifth consecutive game of more than 40 minutes and performed as if he were only growing stronger with each passing moment, there was one moment well worth celebrating. And those who played with him will remember.
``Other than Michael Jordan, no,'' said Sixer Frankie King when asked if he had ever witnessed a performance like Iverson's. ``You see why that man was drafted No. 1. He caught fire.
``That was the first of something great for the future, whether Allen Iverson plays in Philadelphia or somewhere else. Allen Iverson is a ballplayer. I'm on this team and I enjoy watching him pay. I would actually pay to see him play.''
It looked early in the game as if Iverson, who had only 11 in the first half while hitting four of 14 shots, might have run out his string. But as the game heated up, so did he. And by the time he finished his scoring with a rash of fantastic plays, seemingly held back in the late going only by several inexplicable calls from the officials, the crowd was cheering him on.
Iverson's 50 points were a Gund record. His 39 second-half points were also a record for the arena.
``I knew I had a chance to break the record, but I didn't want to come into the game thinking totally about breaking that record,'' Iverson said. ``If I got that record, I wanted to get it within what we were trying to do and not try to do too much.
``What shocked me was my teammates' whole response to it; they felt good for me doing that and they felt good for being a part of it. I think, with all that, that was the most special thing to me.''
The cheers of the Cleveland fans, as much as anything, seemed to stun Iverson, who was booed in this very arena in February when he played in the NBA rookie all-star game.
``I didn't ever expect for somebody to be cheering me in Cleveland,'' he said. ``Especially after what they did to me in the rookie all-star game.''
