THINK ABOUT IT

God does show himself, but he does it in different ways with different people.  First of all, God showed himself in the person of Jesus Christ long ago.  And even then when Jesus, who was God in flesh ( John 1:1 ,  14 ;  Colossians 2:9 ), walked among people, many denied who he was.  So even though God showed himself in the person of Jesus, people wouldn't recognize who he was. Second, and this is a bit subjective, he shows himself to Christians in ways that Christians understand.  Take, for example, how a particular Christian might have a problem with a particular sin and he has been praying about it, asking God to give him strength to resist.  Then, inexplicably he might encounter several people in a very short period of time who talk to him about that exact issue.  They may not know he has that issue, but they address it very specifically.  Is this from God?   Why wouldn't it be?  Why wouldn't God use such things as a way to reveal his work in the world?

The Better Than Cash Alliance, which was founded last September and is partially financed by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, hosted a breakfast at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland Top five reasons, according to the alliance: Transparency: Less corruption and theft when payments can be easily tracked. In Afghanistan, U.S. aid agencies use it so workers aren’t so vulnerable to robbery. Security: The money gets where it’s supposed to go. Financial inclusion: Electronic payment is a way for unbanked people to establish a record of on-time payment of their bills. This can be an “on-ramp” for them to get other services, such as loans, speakers said. Cost savings: Moving physical cash around is costlier than zipping electrons. Many poor people, however, still find it cheaper to use cash, because some cashless networks charge high fees. Access to new markets: This benefit is mainly for providers of financial services.
