Government cannot create—nor has it ever created—economic opportunity. In fact, the reverse is often true. The original colonists that came to this land from Europe were fleeing from oppressive governments whose tyranny dominated many aspects of their lives, not the least of which was their ability to produce wealth. Who is responsible to create economic opportunity for you and your family? Think about that for a moment. When you’re pining away for a larger paycheck (or perhaps any paycheck), who is it you hold responsible for it? Sadly, many people today look to sources like: an employer, Uncle Sam, the economy, Wall Street, Main Street, etc. What about you? Some will say, “I look to God to create economic opportunity,” and will cite scriptures like Philippians 4:19 - “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” That sounds very noble and very spiritual, but many people who say things like this are in dire need. Something’s missing. What are your thoughts?
