But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth.

A cooperative venture between Ford and Volkswagen was reported by Reuters this morning, estimated to save both companies billions of dollars. Chump change compared to the value of the project supervised by the Holy Spirit and assisted by me. The Spirit provides the leadership in the process of sanctification, and I'm responsible for implementation through the Belief cycle. To believe is to trust, to trust is to commit, to commit is to obey, to obey is to be faithful, to be faithful is to believe and on and on we go.

Today's readings in the Psalms:
