    About this ebook

    God Had A Better Plan is a true-to-life account of how God took the son of a Midwest farmer (without an acre of land to his name) and guided him though the twists and turns of life to establish a successful career as a financial advisor and establish the multimillion-dollar Eliezer Fund to assist elderly Christian leaders. The reader will soon realize God Had A Better Plan is more than a rags-to-riches story. It's the story of God's faithfulness and a young boy's commitment to make a difference in ways that matter. The reader will be blessed to learn the six nonnegotiable values that carried Bob through failure to ultimate success. God Had A Better Plan is a true and living story that will help the faithful rediscover the ability of God to rescue and prosper his children. If you grew up believing God had a special purpose for your life but you have not yet fully achieved your dream, God Had A Better Plan will rekindle your belief in God's ability to help. Bob learned to trust God's direction in the day-to-day practical decisions he had to make in times of crippling failure and seasons of blessing. You will be inspired to give God glory and recommit yourself to trust in the Lord's promises. Like the psalmist David, Bob learned the truth of the statement "God's word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path" has practical and powerful implications for yesterday, today, and tomorrow.
