Run After problems: “The Light shines in the darkness but the darkness has not understood it” (John1:5)
Jesus is the true Light that shines His light to us (John 1:9). He expects us to use this “gift” of light that He has given us to solve the problems of darkness.
There is darkness wherever there is a problem. You are not meant to run away from these problems, you are to desperately look for solutions to them by shinning your light through this darkness.
This is one of the major strengths of very successful business owners. The more problems their businesses solve, the more successes they record.
