Dear Brothers and Sisters,
As we focus on building a secure and prosperous future, let’s continue our journey in faith-based investing this week. Inspired by Ecclesiastes 11:2 NIV, “Invest in seven ventures, yes, in eight; you do not know what disaster may come upon the land”—we are reminded of the importance of wise stewardship and diversification.
Why Diversification Matters
The wisdom from Scripture is clear: always spread your risks when investing. None of us can predict what tomorrow holds, but we can take steps to protect what God has entrusted to us. For example:
Instead of buying one large property, consider purchasing two smaller ones.
Explore different types of investments rather than putting all your resources in one basket.
Regularly review your portfolio to ensure it remains balanced.
Seek Expert Guidance
No investment is ever completely without risk. However, you can minimize potential losses by seeking expert advice and learning from others’ experiences. Speak with trusted fistic-based advisors who understand both the market and your values, they can help you make wise decisions that align with your faith.
Real Stories, Real Lessons
Over the years, I have seen and heard individuals spend a lifetime building impressive portfolios, only to lose everything overnight due to unforeseen disasters or poor risk management. Let their stories serve as reminders for us all: prudent planning and reliance on godly wisdom are essential.
Your Next Steps
Reflect on your current investments this week:
Are you diversified?
Have you sought advice from professionals who share your values?
What steps can you take today to better protect what God has given you?
Let’s continue walking this path together, investing not just for profit, but for purpose.
With faith and diligence,
David Poh
