Thought of the Day 02.26.09

It takes a pretty good leader to build a company from the ground up, starting from nothing and turning it into something large and successful.

It takes a decent leader to keep that company running, preserving it from declining too much.

It takes a poor leader to run that company into the ground, ruining it and turning what was once a thriving and prosperous entity into a shambles.

But it takes the greatest leader of all to rescue a ruined company and rebuild it into something at least as great as it once was.

The fact that God created this world is amazing. The fact that we could so quickly and thoroughly ruin it is also fairly amazing. But the most amazing thing of all is not a Creator God or a sinner man, but a God who is so skilled that He could actually take the beyond bankrupt mess we made out of His beautiful corporation and turn it into something even better than He originally made. That’s truly impressive.
