Are you in God’s business?

Galatians 6: 10 “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.”

Are you open to a personal question today? If you are in God’s business what exactly are you doing? I see that your parents are struggling and they cannot keep their heads above water. They pay the rent and that is that. You ask yourself why I struggle financially. I give my tithes and I go to church each week. Still I just am not making it these days.

God wants you to get into His business by helping your parents firstly and then looking after the widows and orphans. While you get busy doing God’s business God will start getting busy doing your business.

There are so many people going through so much these days but the sad part we are building our own little empires. Gathering all these things here on earth and when we die, tell me who is going to receive all your riches? If you do not have children it goes to the Government.

It is my heart’s desire to leave a legacy behind for my children and I am doing everything possible to make this happen.

I want to ask that we all rethink our situations. God I am calling out to You open our eyes and lift the veil off our eyes so that we can see. Give each one of us the wisdom and insight and understanding in looking firstly for Your kingdom. We are all calling out to you.

Prayer

Lord God, I am asking that the Holy Spirit will work today in the lives of each person I am sharing my blog with. Please Lord soften the peoples hearts towards their parents, let them help them. We cannot survive without the roots and our parents are our roots. The branches are drying up because they are neglecting to water the roots. Holy Spirit will you speak into the hearts of the people all around us, let us be more compassionate towards our parents and people in need. I call this into life in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life. Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward. God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other. Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’. Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her. One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it. As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’. Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl. I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today. I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

The View from the Sycamore Tree

"Ill-gotten treasures have no lasting value, but righteousness delivers from death. The Lord does not let the righteous go hungry, but he thwarts the craving of the wicked. Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth." Proverbs 10:2–10 Reflection The Turning Point: I used to think that by this stage of my life. The path was already set in stone. I looked at the mirror and saw the silver hair and the lines of age. I felt as though I was simply watching the clock run out on my dreams. I’ve spent years in the "midlife crisis." Wrestling with the ghosts of regrets, careers that didn't flourish, relationships that felt the strain of time. The nagging fear of being "less than" in a world that prises youth and worldly success. But then I saw Zacchaeus. He was a man who had spent his life traveling in the wrong direction. Chasing "ill-gotten treasures" that left his soul hungry. When he climbed that tree, he wasn't just trying t...
