Jeff was expanding his tree service into a new city. While building his business there, Jeff met Bob, a young competitor.
Jeff worked hard to build his business, but rather than trying to crush the competition, Jeff decided to mentor Bob. He even referred work to Bob’s company occasionally.
After Jeff died in a tragic accident, Jeff’s son invited Bob to one of our events. Because of Jeff’s Christ-like love for Bob, Bob accepted Christ that day at our event.
Proverbs 25:21 teaches, “If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty, give him water to drink.” (NIV)
To most of the business world, the competition is to be crushed. But God asks us to be more like Jeff and love our competition.
