EXPRESSION OF GOD'S KINDNESS

Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own home. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor . . . Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting - Mother Teresa.

OUR PURPOSE IN LIFE

We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved - Mother Teresa.

QUOTE

We know only too well that what we are doing is nothing more than a drop in the ocean. But if the drop were not there, the ocean would be missing something - Mother Teresa.

QUOTE

The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God - Mother Teresa.

QUOTE

At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done.
We will be judged by "I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.- Mother Teresa.

QUOTE

Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies - Mother Teresa.

QUOTE

People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway - Mother Teresa.

APPEARANCE

At times the appearance of people is different from their thought. When you are doing anything, many will wish you dead or wish you fail while others will wish you well which might be different from their appearance but God has Justice in His hand. The heart that is full of evil thoughts do not have anything good to offer.

THE LOVE OF GOD

But above all these things put on love, which is the bone of perfection - Colossians 3 : 14.

LIGHT BEARERS

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling - Philippians 2 : 12. 

JEALOUS GOD

You shall not bow down to them nor serve them. For I the Lord you God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children to the third and fourth generations of those who hate Me - Exodus 20 : 5.

DO NOT BE AN IMPEDIMENT TO YOUR BLESSINGS

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace, in the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world - John 16 : 33.
He said, in Me you may have peace if you look for peace and in the world, He was firm and said you will have tribulations. At times, we are the impediments of God's blessings due to our way of thinking, our way of talking, our way of doing, due to fear, due to doubt, due to leaving the important things we are expected do first and doing the less important first and of course whom we associate ourselves with.
God hear our prayers, but He will not attend to our supplications if we do not seek first His kingdom because He cannot break His rules. A child cannot start running before standing. We have to be worried about what God thinks about us because there lies the blessing of God not what man thinks about us. And when you know what God thinks about you, this will make you to seek Him first before any other thing.
Even if you have very little resources that will take you to the end of the month, but remember that He is faithful to His promises and therefore still out of your little give what is God's to God and what is Caesar's to Caesar and you will see God's blessing manifesting in your life.
Everlasting Father, who knows the end from the beginning, Help us to always honor You with whatever You have given to us no matter how small it might be and help us to know You as the sole provider. Give us the grace to always seek first Your kingdom before our needs in every area of our lives in the name of Jesus Christ.

FAITHFULNESS OF GOD

My brothers and sisters, please, help me to thank God for the great and marvelous work He has done in my life and family this week. It is really great. It was like a film and I will reveal the full details of the testimony in my future post. May Your name be glorified and be exalted above all names. May You continue to reveal whom You really are to us all in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

IMPORTANCE OF RELATIONSHIP

Relationship brings conviction and revelation. Conviction brings confidence and communication brings understanding.

DESERT MOVEMENT

By my dictionary the word desert means, arid barren land especially a tract incapable of supporting any considerable population without an artificial water supply. It also means, an area of water apparently devoid of life. It can also mean, the quality or fact of deserving reward or punishment.
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, Moses, Jesus Christ and many others, passed through desert in their lives so that the promise God gave to them was able to be fulfilled. They were able to fulfill their purpose because they were not alone in their desert movement.
Nowadays, we are all passing through one form of desert or the other in our lives. It might be a desert of sickness, it might be a desert of loneliness, it might be a desert of poverty, it might be a desert of no job or no better paid job, it might be a neglect from your boss, it might be a divorce, it might be a misunderstanding or quarrel with your family or siblings, it might be hatred for the good you did, it might be lack of love, it might be lack of shelter, it might be lack of food, it might be lack of proper medical treatment. There is one good thing I have to tell you, no matter the level of your desert, have the altitude that your desert is not for destruction but rather for transformation. Always know that you not alone. At times, God want us to finish our power so that we should recognize Him as the only way out of any situation.
We should have to convert bitterness to sweetness. avoid evil talk against our fellow brethren. Convert complain to joy and happiness. We should convert negativity into positivity. You should know that during this time of desert crossing, God want us to turn to Him completely. Reading much of His word can be of great help during this crossing. Speaking His word can also be of great help during this time.
God has a language which He want us to speak always - positive language, language of converting negative to positive. We should choose life instead of death because we have to choose out of the two.
Father, help us to speak Your language to every situation that confronts us in life at any particular time in Jesus name.

GRACE IN THE LIFE OF CHRISTIANS

For christian, luck does not exist but rather what exist is justice and grace. We need to clean ourselves of those things that does not give glory to God in our lives so that we can be productive because that is the will of God concerning us. To be good, is not being productive without doing the will of God but rather by doing the will of God which will bring productivity. The will of God is perfect and it is the best for us. When you worry about the welfare of others, you are doing the will of God. Seek the first the kingdom of God and all other things will be added unto you. Because of the grace of God in us, we are expected to do the will of the Father which involves loving your neighbor as yourself, rejoicing with him that is rejoicing, sharing pain with him that is in pain, rendering what you can to those that are in need, preaching the good news of Jesus Christ. Because of the grace of God in you, your actions will do more of the talking than you speaking because it is what you have inside of you that you will portray to others. The perfume in you will draw people to God if it carries the fragrant it is expected to carry and it will drive people away from God if it does not carry that good fragrant of Jesus Christ. We should be imitators of the good work of Jesus Christ because He want our character to reflect Him because He dwells in us.
Father, I give You all the glory for the great work You have done for us. Give us the grace to do your will O Lord, so that at the end You will take the glory because You said that, You will not share Your glory with any man in the name of Jesus Christ.
