Please allow me to end this article on the importance of appreciating the abundance of supply by briefly reviewing this aspect of the Bible story of Adam and Eve in the richly plentiful Garden of Eden. According to the story recorded in Genesis, God had provided for every possible need of Adam and Eve until one day the serpent beguiled Eve by asking her, "Yea, hath God said, 'Ye shall not eat of every tree of the Garden?" Eve replied, "We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, 'Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it lest ye die.' "

Well, the serpent persuaded Eve to overlook and forget about the plenty she did have and directed her attention to that one tree which was forbidden. Despite all the plenty God had given her, she ate the forbidden fruit and she persuaded Adam to do the same. God threw them out of the Garden of Eden and kept them from ever reentering the garden. He cursed the ground, so that Adam had to struggle outside the garden with thorns and thistles and to sweat for his bread.

It's easy to overlook the supply. What one thing do we know about our supply, the markets? They are there and will continue to be there with plenty of movement and possibility. They provide us with rivers of opportunity. Pay attention to that. Count on it.
