Today’s most successful businesses are the result of initiative. If someone has an idea for a product or industry that is markedly different than what currently exists, they hold an opportunity to start something new, disruptive.
To resolve is to decide firmly. That decision, whatever it may be, is accompanied by a determination to see it through and to not waiver or stray from the course.
Loyalty is something we expect from pets, but get it less and less from people. Scripture speaks of a higher level of loyalty for the Christ-follower. This deep and abiding trust is a lifelong and continuing obligation—a duty to remain loyal for life.
The modern definition of longevity is “a long life.” But a practical understanding is a long and sustained quality of life. That is, to live well and consistently for many years.
