Should we let our present situation determine our future?

Many times persons allow the law of society, what others say about them or where they are in life to determine their future. This ought not to be so and I will give you an example from the Bible. In 2 Kings 7 we see a city in a deplorable state, suffering of the greatest and most degrading level were taking place. The focus though is on the four leprous man outside the city, out-cast, rejected, starving, and would seems hopeless. But did they let their current state determine their future? No! They say we will not die here! They saw hope in a hopeless situation, they saw just a gleam of hope and they took it. You too my friend can say I will not die here, I will no longer remain a nobody, I will no longer live according to how others treat or see me, I will no longer believe that I am the ugly duckling, I WILL NOT DIE HERE and even though death or the same treatment is possible on the other side I WILL TAKE MY CHANCES BUT I WILL NOT STAY HERE.

How many kids should you have?

I heard someone asking the question, how many kids should a couple have, seeing that the Bible say be fruitful and multiply (Gen 1:28)? To answer that, of course we will turn to the Bible. In Luke 14: 28-32 we get the perfect answer. If you want to be fruitful and multiply that is ok but make sure that you sit down and count the cost first. How much am I earning? Will I be able to take care of my children basic needs? Will I be able to spend quality time with ALL of them and still have time for my spouse and myself? Will I remain emotionally, mentally, spiritually and financially stable? These are a few questions one must ask when considering to REALLY BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY and I hope the answer to them will help you to make the right decision.

Until next time remember to hear what the Bible have to say about it.

Please post your comments and questions I would be most eager to reply.

Blessed Love

The Child's Right

Every child is entitle to love, education, shelter, food, clothing etc. But in these tough economical times, parents are finding it difficult to provide these basic necessities for their children. So what can be done for the Children's Sake? Today we will take a look on providing education for our children. Back to school time can be a really stressful period for parents and sometimes for children too. Mommy and Daddy don't know where the school fee or the necessary back to school items such as books, shoes, uniform etc are coming from and the time is drawing near. Children don't know whether or not the parents will get things togather in time for school restart and so everyone is stress. Here is a little advice, 1 start saving for the next term from now, it don't have to be much. All you need is a little box, bottle, bag or whatever you would rather and start dropping your $1, $2, $5, $10, $20 etc in it. All the little spare change you carry back from the supermarket drop it in there and you will be surprise at how much you will have when the next school term comes around. 2 Let the children know the situation from early. Teach them to take care of their shoes, uniforms, books etc. so you don't have to buy these every year/term. 3 budget well, always keep in mind your obligation to provide a good education for your child and do no unnecessary spending.

Remember every child can learn, every child must learn and it's all for the children's sake

Strength Through Faith In God (Pt 3) | She's Classic

Don't play with sin!

Do you believe it is ok to continue doing wrong because you have been getting away with it for a very long time? Someone once told me " don't play with sin because sin will take you further than you had planned to go and keep you longer than you had planned to stay". Therefore, be carful of what you do, when you do it, how you do it and why you do it, why? Because Galatians 6:7 says "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."

What Blessing it is!

Just being alive is a blessing. Last time we looked at how we should treat those who treated us badly. For this session we will look at how to deal with bad situations in our lives. Okay, so life was going well, you had almost everything you wanted and THEN everything or most things start to go bad, can you still be at peace? Can you still be happy in spite of all your adversities?
OH YES YOU CAN!
WHY?
BECAUSE: Philippians:4:11 says: Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
AND: Romans:8:28 says: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Remember it did not say ALL THINGS ARE GOOD but ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD. So in spite of all that you may be going through, just believe that God is working something out for your good and indeed you can be at peace in the midst of your adversities.

Many persons believe that the Bible is outdated but I believe that it is more up to date than any book I have come in contact with. In fact I believe that it has something to say about every aspect of our lives. Everything that we might be going through, someone has gone through it in the Bible, it may look different, but when you take the time out to analyze it, you will realize it is the same thing.
So, what is it that you are wondering if the Bible contains anything about?
What encouragement you are seeking from the Bible?
Let us explore together!!!

Hello my friends how are you? It's been a long time but I am back and I'm here to stay.

Now the question for today is? What if someone you did your very best to help treated you very bad? should you continue loving and treating that person good?

From a human perspective our first impulse might be "hell no!" but what does the Bible say?

Matt:5:43: Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.
Matt:5:44: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

Well there you have it. Let the Bible Speak
