Puzzling ...

Recently I read a little line on a company poster that as one of its 4 guidelines is in everything we do , may God get the glory . Now I think that is a fine motive and a good thing to excel towards . It is directly from scripture , that all we do is to glorify the Lord , if one is a Christian . However , what I found funny is this company pays as little as possible to its employees. At the same time the owner of the operation has reaped a very nice profit and which has afforded a lifestyle most of the workers could only dream of. In fact with most barely over minimum wage , most live a paycheck at a time .I do not think profit is wrong ,or that one who risked much doesn't deserve to reap the spoils , so to speak . But I contend if this company is run by a Christian , they must go beyond the world and offer more . Not living off the backs of the worker . We all deserve a decent wage for a honest days pay but sin corrupts, even believers can fall into greed and tipping the scales to favor them .
