    God gives every PI work, but He does not throw it into your email box.

    "God gives every PI work, but He does not throw it into your email box".

    I heard the above today, which was modified after another quote by J.G. Holland: "God gives every bird its food, but He does not throw it into the nest."

    How true for what IPIU offers its members. The resources are plenty, the training is exceptional, and all can be happily fed to prosper. But don't expect your email or phone to provide you with the blessings unless you keep your end of the promise.

    I agree. I live in a rural area and I still find some work. As I get my name out there more I am sure things will pick up for me. I also plan on ordering the black book.

    Re: God gives every PI work, but He does not throw it into your email box.

    Thanks, I like your thread. In the book of James Chapter 2 Vs. 14-26, it says that Faith without works is dead. And surely being the very truth. If we have an active Faith and believe. And do nothing but wait for an email to appear in our inbox. We cannot win. (Of course, miracles do happen.) I'm always happy when I get an email from a regular client. However speaking, yes I agree. We first have to believe, that God is who he says he is. And go from there.
    Ephesians Chapter 2 vs. 8 & 9. Says we are saved by Grace, through Faith, and not works. Less we should brag or boast of what we have. So, we know as PI's were not perfect. Only Jesus was, and he took our place for not being perfect. Therefore, we can go to him when we make mistakes. And ask for forgiveness.
    One verse that Jesus said, I think is helpful in our line of work. Mathew Chapter 10 Vs. 16. Be as wise as serpents and gentle as doves. How so true, being the Public has put their trust in us as Licensed Private Investigators. We have to protect our client against all the s.cam artists out there.

    Re: God gives every PI work, but He does not throw it into your email box.

    I have read the above posts and something came to me in which I would like to share. I think one of the main things a PI needs to do in the field or anyone in a related field (security, enforcement, investigation) is to be sharp on their feet and in their mind. Thinking of this: The Pharisees tried constantly to trick Christ and He had to be ready to respond calmly and quickly. One verse comes to mind where I find Jesus being so sharp I laugh when I read or see it.
    Mark 12:15-17
    Should we pay or shouldn’t we?”

    But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.” They brought the coin, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”
    “Caesar’s,” they replied.
    Then Jesus said to them, “Give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s.”
    And they were amazed at him.

    So awesome!!!!

    Re: God gives every PI work, but He does not throw it into your email box.

    I find this to be an interesting forum. It seems in investigations one must dig deep to find prosperity. Information must be found, it does not just fall out of the sky and into one's lap. Mrs. Reagan, what kind of advice can you give a trainee such as myself.
