Black Friday
So many people will be getting ready for what is called "Black Friday." As someone who has been around retail for as long as I can remember, I can easily remember the amount of stress on retailers to prepare for this time of year. Nearly 30% of all retail business is done in the next 5 plus weeks. Stresses run high, as do tempers and charge cards.
As believers we have to embrace the mind of Christ in all that we do and this includes allowing the spirit of the Lord to help us maintain self control, peace and grace in this season.
It is my hope that you and your family and friends will enjoy the blessing of the Lord in this season. We here at SPOILS Business Ministry offer you our heartfelt blessings at this time. I enclose a few words from othes to meditate upon during this holiday.
Blessings,
Lee & the Team

Teddy Roosevelt
“God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say ‘thank you?’“
William A Ward
“True thanksgiving means that we need to thank God for what He has done for us, and not to tell Him what we have done for Him.”
George R. Hendrick
Prayer: Father thank you for your daily provision in my life. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!
