A Different Perspective with Berni Dymet

It’s nice to work hard and earn money and enjoy the fruits of that. That’s good and it’s right and actually it’s what God says in the Bible. And it’s also nice to give something back - to those less fortunate than us perhaps. The question is - how do we give? Do we give out of our surplus, or out of the money that really, we need for ourselves? Join Berni Dymet ? as h...

In this world we learn pretty quickly that winning is good, losing is bad. Fair enough. But sometimes winning is losing and losing is winning. That’s actually what Jesus said. He meant it in every part of our lives - and He particularly meant it, when it comes to money. Our Money, a touchy subject.

We would love sometimes to have a foot in both camps ? God and money. But it doesn’t work because it’s like being a dog with two masters. One says sit, the other says come ? which one is the dog going to obey. Either one, or the other. Turns out, you can’t serve them both.

Jesus said some terribly inconvenient things about money. Truly He did ? things that for the most, we’d rather not hear. But as He invariably does, He puts His finger right on the spot, right on the problem that so many have with money ? and not just the problem. He has a solution ? because what He wants is not so much our money, but our hearts. Join Berni Dymet ? as he takes a money matters...

Money’s a great servant but a brutal master. Wealth is enticing, so it’s easy to be seduced and before we know it ? we’re slaves to it. But it was never meant to be that way. Money ? or wealth - was never meant to be our master. Instead, what you and I are called to do, is to exercise mastery over money.

Money as it turns out is a pretty good servant, but a brutal master. So many people chase so hard after wealth that instead of money serving them, they end up becoming slaves to it. That which promised so much, instead becomes the source of much pain. It’s not what we expected, It’s just what happens. Join Berni Dymet ? as he takes a money matters, from a different perspective.

You’ve perhaps heard it said that money is the root of all evil. It comes from the Bible. But actually that’s not what it says. It says that the love of money is the root of all evil. That’s quite a different thing. It turns out that our attitude towards money, rather than money per se ? can be quite a problem in our lives.

Most relationships are based on an implicit two way contract. I’ll do this, if you do that. But since neither party can uphold their end of the bargain perfectly, they fall short. The two way contract doesn’t work in an imperfect world. What we need - is a radically different approach. It’s called ? grace.

There’s not a person on this planet who doesn’t want peace. But so often instead of planning for peace, instead of being the peacemaker, we’re the one who’s throwing fuel on the fire.

Most of the things we do in life, most of the things we achieve, we achieve as part of a team. But sometimes the team members don’t play so well together. We behave more like two year olds than adults. That’s why a true team player can be such a mighty blessing.

Kindness is one of the simplest blessings that we can ever hand out. And most often, it doesn’t cost us a lot, yet it yields so much. In fact, a simple act of kindness has a greater return on investment than just about any other blessing.

These days, humility can be considered a sign of weakness. But think about it - would you rather be stranded on a desert island with someone who’s full of pride, or someone who’s humble?

We all get angry sometimes - some more than others, depending on our personality type.

Trustworthiness is a quality that - I don’t know what it is - seems to be harder and harder to find in people. Someone who’s not trustworthy can be a huge burden.

How often do you do something for someone - and somehow, they forget to say thank you. It’s not that you did it so that they’d thank you or recognise you, but a simple 'thank you' would have been nice, right? There’s a lot of power in those two words isn’t there? Thank ? you.
