Our success and wealth is granted by God and it belongs to Him

WEALTH is a blessing, but it is also a test.

In the words of the Torah, when we grow wealthy, we grow haughty. We believe that we succeeded because of our industriousness, courage, tenacity, resourcefulness, and ambition. We forget that success is granted by God.

The business environment is cutthroat, and we often encounter these negative traits among our competitors. We think we must do the same to gain an advantage over them. But we forget that success doesn't result from investing the extra hour or cutting the extra corner. Success comes from God.
