‭1 Corinthians 14:40

But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way.

 

A system is defined as:

 

1. a set of things working together as parts of a mechanism or an interconnecting network.

 

2. a set of principles or procedures according to which something is done; an organized framework or method.

 

 

In the mass construction of buildings, especially the type we've witnessed where we live, each piece must be precisely created, each beam expertly measured, and every joint properly aligned. There's no room for error, for every element serves a purpose, supporting the grand vision of a structure that will stand for centuries, telling the world about the builder's attention to detail, 

 

 

The Benefits of Systems

 

1. Uniformity of Results: Systems ensure that everyone, regardless of their starting point, can achieve similar results by sticking to established guidelines.

 

2. Minimized Biases: By sticking to a system, decisions are made based on predefined criteria rather than personal sentiments, promoting fairness. 

 

3. Longevity: Systems provide a plan for repeated success, allowing ideas to live beyond their owners 

 

4. Enabling Replication: With a solid system, successful initiatives can be replicated, allowing for growth and expansion.

 

5. Basis for Accountability: Systems create clear criteria for evaluation, essential for commendation, correction, promotion, and demotion, reducing personal and emotional biases

3. Ask God to instill in us a spirit of discipline and that we may design our lives around systems that will lead to blessings and growth.

 

4. Pray that God will grant us the patience to trust in His systems. That He will help us to understand that He is a God of process and that all things work together for good to those who love Him.
