Listening to people with money

One great thing about being at a University is having the opportunity of hearing guest speakers. Last Friday we had the privilege of hearing Jeff Benedict, the author of the book "The Mormon way of doing business" and two of the people the book was about, David Neeleman, founder of Jet Blue and Rodney Hawes and his wife, who has made millions in insurance. They talked about how important prayer is in their lives and how they wouldn't make any decisions without first taking it to Heavenly Father and seeking his advice. To me it was a testimony that even thought you have had great success in life, your not above asking for help from above. Rodney Hawes also told how important it is to pay your tithing even when you feel you can't afford too. He told of how there was a time when he felt he couldn't afford to pay his tithing but he did and the windows of heaven were opened to him. He still feels it is very important and feels it's a privilege to pay a 9 figure tithing. I could see many in the audience adding just how much that would be. Whether we make a lot or a little it is very important for our eternal salvation.
