A Soft Answer
A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger (Proverbs 15 v.1). Oftentimes it is in the heat of an argument that one word ignites the fire. The fire created can sometimes be fatal. People may get burned. Some may be lucky enough to live and tell about it. But like any devastating event there is a calm ambience with my many “what ifs” floating around. So how can you prevent this wild fire from negatively affecting your life?

Just One Touch
Can you imagine being scorned and ostracized from society? And Jesus said, “Who touched me?” When all denied doing so, Peter and they that were with Him said, “Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, who touched me?” (Luke 8 vs. 45). At some point in our lives we all long for that special touch. Some desire a touch from a loved one, while others long to be filled with the presence of God. With just a touch of the border of His garment, immediately the woman with the issue of blood was healed.

NCU Nurtures the Entrepreneurial Spirit
While several businesses are folding, and corporations are laying off workers, there is a drive at Northern Caribbean University (NCU) to unleash and hone the entrepreneurial spirit of its students who may likely face the brick wall of unavailable employment upon their graduation. In fact, even if they do find employment, the University is persuaded that her students bring greater value to the marketplace if they know how to create and manage a business, and are prepared as entrepreneurs, irrespective of their discipline of study. There is also another significant need that drives the entrepreneurial imperative on campus – students need funds to pay for their education.
