In the acquisition world (which probably no one who reads this is familiar with) there's a term for new stuff being acquired when it's pretty complex, and they call it a system of systems. For some unknown reason I have a habit of making things complex – if not complicated, especially when it comes to communication and learning. I'm uploading the first 2 pages of the 3 pages on my iPad and iPhone for comparison so you can see how I made the two similar – not exact, so don't go inspector gadget on me! But making both tools similar is all part of my system (using technology) of systems (being productive) that has the ultimate goal of growing in Christ and reaching others… See my “Purpose" page.

I sent out the following message last night: 30 MM “strong beginning" finisher! — “In all your plans, while some things might be permissible, are you finding the outcome profitable? Good financial planners work towards profit, and we who are investing in kingdom work should be no different…"

This stuff is tough though, isn't it – even how I'm explaining it might be confusing… We need help managing all these systems and plans so we can do it well, otherwise we'll get lost in the process and forget about the intended product! So the acronym SOS for System of Systems is actually quite appropriate, isn't it!?!

In my system of systems, believe it or not, I have a plan – and the readers of this blog are a part of that plan… I just hope that in the end, my plan will have been the most efficient and profitable way of getting us to where we'll eventually be – as we stand before the Judgement Seat.

But one thing is for sure, there will be a record of my efforts, and I just hope the wood hay and stubble is kept to a minimum in all of my systems.

Peace,
Adam
