Microsoft Excel is a spreadsheet and data storage software program that is an important part of the business management process in many organizations. An ability to understand this program and to work with it is essential for all levels from entry to top management. Many organizations list being able to use Excel as a requirement for employment. The ability to master this useful program will benefit anyone involved in business from a job applicant to the CEO of the company.Excel training exists at many levels also. The software itself includes tutorials designed to get you started. The Microsoft website offers additional training software that is also intended to give a user at least a working knowledge of Excel. For many people, this is as far as they take their training and as a result they both struggle with Excel and fail to realize or utilize its tremendous potential. If you want to get the most out of it, you need to accept its complexity and recognize the need for some serious t
The connection was between the 2K marking on the paper, and the bible book 2nd Kings.
“That was it!” I needed to read 2nd Kings. I began flipping through the pages and finally made it to 2nd Kings Chapter 1. As I began reading, I discovered I had never read this book.
When I made it to Chapter 4:8, I read these words:
One day Elisha went to Shunem and a well-to-do woman was there, who urged him to stay for a meal. So whenever he came by, he stopped there to eat. [9] She said to her husband, "I know that this man who often comes our way is a holy man of God. [10] Let's make a small room on the roof and put in it a bed and a table, a chair and a lamp for him. Then he can stay there whenever he comes to us."
2KI 4:11 One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there. [12] He said to his servant Gehazi, "Call the Shunammite." So he called her, and she stood befor
Motor vehicle loans are not a common financial product and thus, having bad credit can be really an obstacle when you need finance for a motor vehicle purchase. Yet, it is possible to obtain funds, provided that you know where to look for them.First of all, you need to know exactly what your needs are in terms of funds and what your repayment capacity is. Once the money issue is solved, we need to analyze what your credit stance is and what your options for financing with that credit are. The last step is to search for the right lender and the right loan so as to close the best deal available for you.Loan Amount And Repayment Capacity It is important for you to know beforehand how much money you’ll need in order to purchase the motor vehicle. Thus, only once you’ve decided which vehicle is best for you and how much money you’ll need in order for you to purchase it, you can start requesting loan quotes from different lenders to analyze the costs of financing.
The realization I wouldn’t be given any official documents left me numb. I reasoned the rest of the world considered my child’s life and death were insignificant. My nine long months of pregnancy, the pain of labor, and delivery was all in vain and the baby had no identity.
About a month after her funeral, I found an internet company that created “unofficial certificates of life” for stillborn babies. I immediately gave them my baby’s information- her DOB, weight, time of birth, length, hospital name, and placed the order.
A week or so passed, and I received a package in the mail with the company’s name imprinted on the front.
I tore into the package and pulled out a “Certificate of Life” with my baby’s information written in beautiful calligraphy.
At last, something to acknowledge her existence. The certificate looked almost identical to my other two daughter’s birth certificates.
At the time, I was a work- at- home mom with a lot of free time on my hands (at least while my older girls were in school), so I decided to use my free time learning to write in calligraphy (inspired by the beautiful handwriting on the certificate).
Learning something new was therapeutic during this grieving period, but the pain of her loss was still fresh. I had to rely solely on God to help during the weak and lonely moments.
I knew I had to pray, listen to the Holy Spirit and read my bible. I searched the scriptures night and day for answers, and the Holy Spirit was finally able to calm my spirit. He reminded me of God’s grace, and God’s grace was sufficient for me.
Now that I was experiencing peace, I began asking my husband what he thought about trying to have another baby. He said he wasn’t sure. He wanted to try again, however he thought it was too soon. (It had only been about 4 months).
He was afraid something terrible could happen again. He also made the comment “I’m just too old to have anymore children”.
True, he is older than I am, but I believe he only said this out of fear of the unknown.
I disagreed about the age comment, but decided not to push the issue any further (because I knew he was still grieving too).
I continued practicing my calligraphy, praying and reading scriptures.
On March 7, 2003, five months after the funeral, I picked up my bible and prayed, asking the Lord to direct me to the scripture He would have me read. Leaving my bible open, I decided to wait and see if the Holy Spirit would give me scripture guidance.
While waiting for an answer, I noticed my calligraphy pen and paper sitting on the table in front of me.
I picked up the pen (thinking I might take notes on my bible study), but as I pressed the pen down on the paper, no ink came out. I shook the pen, tried to get the ink to come out, but nothing.
Frustrated with my pen, I shook it harder and tapped it against my leg. Finally, I saw ink starting to flow through the end. As I placed the pen on paper, the ink flowing from the tip of the pen made a dark impression on the page that looked like the number 2 with the letter K next to it. “How Strange” I thought. I put the lid back on the pen and placed it back down on the table.
As I picked up the bible, I scanned through the contents page, trying to decide which book to read.
I looked at the bible’s contents, then, glanced back at the paper with the 2K on it. My mind made a strange connection.

Today the cost of auto insurance in the state of Colorado is among the highest in the nation and many Colorado drivers are finding it harder and harder to make those monthly car insurance premiums.If you’re like most car insurance buyers in Colorado you can’t afford to pay even a penny more for your insurance needs than is absolutely necessary and driving without insurance is not an option – not unless you want to risk losing your vehicle and your driver’s license for a long, long time.It’s possible that one of the auto insurance reforms currently in the Colorado legislature will eventually have a positive impact on auto insurance premiums in the state, but in the meantime here are a few practical suggestions for ways to reduce your cost of auto insurance or to a least keep it at its current level.First, do your own homework.Start by checking with your other insurance providers. Often your homeowner’s insurance may offer a nice discount if you purchase your car in

The Internet can be scary. Trying to get new customers through the Internet can be scarier. So you may be tempted to stick with old methods of advertising, such as mailing out printed material. But here are seven reasons why you should focus more on your company website than your brochure.1. A website costs less than a brochure A standard size tri-fold brochure can cost $650 for the design and $396 for 500 copies--and those are discount prices! A website might cost a little more for the design, but you see huge savings in the lack of a "cost-per-person." If you have 5 or 500 or 5,000 website visitors, the cost is not going to change much, if at all. You'd have to pay several hundred dollars more to make your brochure available to 5,000 people.2. You can include more information A standard brochure can only hold a certain amount of information. If the information you choose to provide is not exactly what a potential client wants to know about you,

Your IT business is starting to grow. It’s still a bit quiet occasionally, but at other times you’re finding the workload a bit much. You don’t want to employ someone full-time, but someone part-time for specific tasks, depending on their expertise, may be useful.It is a good idea to get together a team of subcontractors BEFORE you need them, with different skills. If you wait for the first project where you may need help, you could find it will take too long to find the RIGHT subcontractor for the PROJECT.Check the references of any subcontractors who apply. Contact IT consulting firms they have worked for. They are representing your business. You also want to make sure you will not be spending more time fixing up their mistakes than if you did the work yourself. Remember, you are paying them. They need to be high quality.When you have decided on the subcontractor(s) you’re going to contract, get the paperwork done before you need them on a project. A contract between y

Like all new innovations, technology in the work environment can either work for you or against you. What is good for the employer or is not always the same for the employee.Is Technology Working FOR You or AGAINST YouWhen cellphones became available it seemed that they would fill a need for instant communication - any time, any place - that would help people be more efficient and thus save time.Then email became a mainstream method of business communication. Marvelous - now telephones wouldn't ring off the hook, messages would not have to be stored and retrieved as verbal communications, which took time. Instead, information would be clear and concise and could be retrieved and answered any time, any where - again the promise of more freedom.With email, internet and cellphones, was it really necessary for workers to be restrained to the office? Maybe shorter work days would ensue. Perhaps parents could collect their children from school and be contacted at home vi

Then he can stay there whenever he comes to us."
2KI 4:11 One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there. [12] He said to his servant Gehazi, "Call the Shunammite." So he called her, and she stood before him. [13] Elisha said to him, "Tell her, `You have gone to all this trouble for us. Now what can be done for you? Can we speak on your behalf to the king or the commander of the army?' "
She replied, "I have a home among my own people."
2KI 4:14 "What can be done for her?" Elisha asked.
Gehazi said, "Well, she has no son and her husband is old."
2KI 4:15 Then Elisha said, "Call her." So he called her, and she stood in the doorway. [16] "About this time next year," Elisha said, "you will hold a son in your arms."
"No, my lord," she objected. "Don't mislead your servant, O man of God!"
2KI 4:17 But the woman became pregnant, and the next year about that same time she gave birth to a son, just as Elisha had told her.
After reading these words, I knew in my heart this message was for me, and my situation. The Spirit reminded me of the writings that appeared to Daniel (see Daniel 5:5).
Why would God bless me with a son? I had already given birth to three girls and my husband had a girl from a previous marriage. It would seem impossible we would ever have a son, but I claimed these scriptures for myself and kept them in my heart.
On January 19, 2004, I gave birth to a healthy 7lb 12 oz baby boy approximately 46 weeks after reading 2Kings (Note: An average pregnancy from conception to due date takes approx 40 weeks).
Was this just a coincidence? I don’t think so. To my husband and I, this incident was a gracious sign from the Lord, a gift, and miracle I didn’t ask for or expect. (I assumed I would never have a son).
My conclusion:
Is it possible God still moves in people’s lives the way He did in the bible? Of course he does. Jesus Christ is Alive. God still does amazing things as signs for us. He also does many things outside of His Word, just never contrary to His Word. John said in John 21:25- Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.
Am I being arrogant because I believe He can bless me in the same way He blessed the Shunamite woman in 2nd Kings? I don’t think so, the people of the bible were just men/women, just like you and I. God uses the weak to confound the strong. We shouldn’t glorify any people in the bible; they were nothing but clay in the hands of The Potter. Millions of people around the world from all different backgrounds find miracle healing, forgiveness and love through Jesus in our day! What the Lord did for others, he can still do for you. He is no respecter of persons.
Should it surprise a true believer in God that God is working miracles and showing signs of His power today? According to the Bible, "Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, today and forever" (Hebrews 13:8). If Jesus was ever a miracle worker, He is today.
Did He ever say He would stop doing miracles? To deny miracles, is to mock prayer today, since even the slightest true answer to prayer involves a measure of divine intervention. God can do whatever He wants at any time. Jesus is not dead. He is a risen savior- our high priest. While there is order in the Universe, there is also plenty of room for the direct involvement of God's Spirit.
You can choose to believe or deny this story if you want. I’m going to get my son, hold him in my arms, praise God, and give Him the glory.
