This scripture is not only deep, but, also very profound.

Ephesians 2:6 KJV
And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

Ephesians 2:6 MSG
Then he picked us up and set us down in highest heaven in company with Jesus, our Messiah.

1. "He hath Raised us up..." KJV
"HE picked us up. MSG

2. "...and made us sit together" KJV
"...and set us down" MSG

3. "sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus" KJV
"set us down in highest heaven in company with Jesus, our Messiah." MSG
Truly, He raised us up. Truly, He picked us up.
Truly, He made us sit 2geda in heavenly places with Christ.
Truly, He set us down in highest heaven with Jesus

These quests. thus arise.

Are we still seated?
Or
Have we walked away because, our ways are at cross-purposes with His
If we are truly seated, we will always carry His fire everywhere we go.
1. Worship wouldn't be a burden.
2. Praise wouldn't be a burden.
3. Gratitude wouldn't be a burden.
4. A lot of stuffs wouldn't throw us under the bus and make us look helpless.
Now, when was the last time we had a daily, weekly or monthly review of where we are?

When was the last time we brought out out "Monitor Guage?"

Have you noticed or observed that, We monitor almost everything in life;
From the petrol in our car to that in our generators.
We monitor the money in our banks as well as that in our pocket....

#We monitor our performances at work and those of our subordinates...

#We monitor our health,
#we monitor the temperature guage on the dashboard of our cars, monitor and guage the air in our tyres.
#We monitor virtually everything and take action(s) where necessary to ensure things go on smoothly.

#This action(s) gives us great satisfaction, yet, the most important things are left unmonitored.

#Our spiritual guage has been reading zero for a longtime unattended to.
#Our walk with God has been crooked, yet little or no attention has been paid to this....yet, we are only concerned about the goodies

#Our desire to study the Word has been on the decline for as long as possible...(Bible has become like a sleeping pill)
#Prayer meter keeps dropping daily.

#Fellowship with God is now a quicky, done only when convenient.

#We monitor politics locally and happenings around the world

#Praise and worship is only enhanced when they are played on radio or television, yet,

#Righteousness, holiness,
faithfulness, goodness are all on the decline and we wonder why everything is going haywire..

Our relationship with God which is the ultimate is no longer important...it has taken the back sit, and this in itself, is a monumental error.

"I really want to break into Product Management"

"If only someone would tell me how I can get a startup to notice me."

Make Products.

"I guess it's impossible and I'll never break into the industry."

MAKE PRODUCTS.

Courtesy of @edbrisson's wonderful thread on breaking into comics –
https://t.co/TgNblNSCBj – here is why the same applies to Product Management, too.


There is no better way of learning the craft of product, or proving your potential to employers, than just doing it.

You do not need anybody's permission. We don't have diplomas, nor doctorates. We can barely agree on a single standard of what a Product Manager is supposed to do.

But – there is at least one blindingly obvious industry consensus – a Product Manager makes Products.

And they don't need to be kept at the exact right temperature, given endless resource, or carefully protected in order to do this.

They find their own way.
Recently, the @CNIL issued a decision regarding the GDPR compliance of an unknown French adtech company named "Vectaury". It may seem like small fry, but the decision has potential wide-ranging impacts for Google, the IAB framework, and today's adtech. It's thread time! 👇

It's all in French, but if you're up for it you can read:
• Their blog post (lacks the most interesting details):
https://t.co/PHkDcOT1hy
• Their high-level legal decision: https://t.co/hwpiEvjodt
• The full notification: https://t.co/QQB7rfynha

I've read it so you needn't!

Vectaury was collecting geolocation data in order to create profiles (eg. people who often go to this or that type of shop) so as to power ad targeting. They operate through embedded SDKs and ad bidding, making them invisible to users.

The @CNIL notes that profiling based off of geolocation presents particular risks since it reveals people's movements and habits. As risky, the processing requires consent — this will be the heart of their assessment.

Interesting point: they justify the decision in part because of how many people COULD be targeted in this way (rather than how many have — though they note that too). Because it's on a phone, and many have phones, it is considered large-scale processing no matter what.
