Greetings Dear Reader,
It amazes me when working on a project that there will be
persons who actively work to hinder a project by demanding specific things that
hazard the overall project. I sat in a
meeting once where an individual insisted on changes that were not critical to
success but would hinder the project for all the other participants.
When I consider project management I consider what feeds the
critical path. I consider how everything
suggested speaks to the requirements, the time line, and the resources. What makes a project run smoothly is
harmonization of effort. When all the
people involved focus on the needs of the project and the most effective way to
accomplish those things the resulting harmonization can be amazing.
When I look at those who wish to follow Christ I do not see
this. I see tower building,
self-gratification, and wasted resources.
Organizations avoid the critical path to build up a position or
standard. They waste resources on activities
instead of the work of the Gospel. The
infighting in the church wastes resources that could be used to care for a hurting
world.
I must be sure that I do all that I can to promote
harmonization of effort. I do not have
to agree with the choices or lifestyle of someone to help care for him or her
in need. I do not have to agree with everything
about an organization in order to help its efforts in caring for the poor.
I must assure that if it is true and good that I support
it. If it aides the Gospel I do not care
about much else. If I am to follow
Christ then I must live peaceably with all men.
I must follow the critical path no matter what the agenda. I must work toward and encourage others to
seek harmonization of effort.
Wishing you joy in the journey,
Aramis Thorn
Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every writer
who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a home
owner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store.”
