It's an Asset


"It's an asset."

This little quote will need to be added my list of favorite quotes.

We were at an important business meeting. Sitting in the meeting was a gentleman from a state regulatory bureau concerned with oversight and the financial health of the institution. He would have like to have heard that the business is doing well and finances are quite sound. But, because of the economy and other variables, that is not the case.

One person at the meeting said it would be nice to escape from the constant pressure of imminent financial trouble and finally have a little smooth sailing.

Then came the above quote from a brother nearby, "It's an asset."

Anytime you are suffering from difficult circumstances beyond your control, (self-inflicted or otherwise); anytime you are going through doubt, depression, sickness or pain - this is your quote: "It's an asset."

As Charles Spurgeon wrote, "O blessed hurricane that drives the soul to God and God alone!
