This is a really powerful Psalm. I think it's one of the first which we have all learnt at Sunday School. It not only explains about the good nature of our Lord but also the plans that He has for all of us. This Word is also an assurance of God's protection, restoration and deliverance upon our lives! Though it is a snall chapter with 6 verses, personally, I have always been comforted, strengthened and rejunevated whenever I read it and proclaim it upon my life in Jesus' name! Psalm 23 is a psalm of David, an annointed and chosen servant of God who was the King of Israel.
The Bible is the inspired Word of God!!
Psalm 23
1 " The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not be
in want.
2 He makes me lie down in green
pastures,
He leads me beside quiet waters,
3 He restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for His name's sake.
4 Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow
of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my Head with oil;
my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the Lord
for ever. "
Bible- New International Version (NIV)

Small Business Firms
This is part of a series of posts I wrote in October 2008 concerning the arrival of the Global Recession...
Small Business Firms
For small business firms, this is a great opportunity. See, the big firms are big because their investments are big, their stakeholders are big, their manpower is big, their commitments are big, their dues are big, their profit expectations are big and the risks they take are big. Their whole business model is a big cycle. That is why they are called big business firms. So a dip in their profits will definitely cause a big impact on them. This affects their dues, their commitments, their manpower, their stakeholders and the result is too costly for them to depend on their investment which is why they have so much to lose in this period of uncertainty. Hence they have some major changes to make in their strategies.
Small Firms- Big Hopes
Small business firms have got small investment. The risk is lower here. Yes, the problems you face are similar in nature to those of the big firms. But the cost of recovery and costs to be incurred in making changes are considerably very much lower as compared to your big brothers. You can start by minimising your profit forecast, cut down the price of your product and provide discounts, devise different effective ‘Need of the Hour’ marketing strategies; reduce your distribution channels, apply resource management techniques and simplify the transportation routes to yield minimum costs, strictly adhere at minimising administration costs, and there is in fact so much more you can do if you just sit, calculate your ledger books and analyse the whole thing from a new and different perspective.
