LOVE IS ACTION

A physician once said "the best medicine for humans is love". Someone asked "what if it doesn't work?" He smiled and said "increase the dose".


Such is the story of this young man in the above picture who was left on the streets. Looking battered and beaten, barely walking on his own until love showed up in form of the young man in yellow tee. 

He began feeding him daily, rented an apartment for him, paid someone to take care of him, bought clothes for him and took him to a doctor. Today, he is all cleaned up and healthy, looking sharp in his suit ready for church. 

Here is the message the young man on yellow tee posted on social media below:


The proof of your love for God is showing love to your fellow human. How? In your actions. John 3:16 "for God so loved the world that He gave..." what? His son. So, Love is action! Show love today with actions.

WHAT DOES SACRIFICE MEAN IN A RELATIONSHIP?

Every relationship requires some sacrifices. Even, a garden full of flowers requires sacrifice to tend it. It takes sacrifice for a farmer to reap good harvest. What does it mean to be sacrificial? Being sacrificial is being selfless and loving, all out for someone and even inconveniencing yourself. So, in your relationship, you say am not the "this type of person, I am not the that type of yen yen" and you know it can make that relationship blossom, why not make sacrifices and do it. it is called sacrificial love Maybe the sacrifice you have to make is understanding and patience, taking in the other person's mental health into consideration. Nobody was born a type of person.  School, parents, environment, experiences, church, etc ; shaped us into being some type of person. But, self centeredness and selfishness hinders us from making sacrifices. Even our Lord Jesus that died and resurrected was not the "dying type of person" to die for us, but He made that sacr...

THE YEAR HAS BEGAN.

The year 2018 was a blessed year for me. The year a significant change took place in my life;  I became a mother to a glorious baby. This change didn't seem possible but just like the song writer said "my hope is built on nothing less than Jesus Christ, my righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus' name. ..." . Well, here we are in a new year; 2019. Maybe you where told by the doctor you wouldn't make it to this year, but here you are. Circumstances challenged you to give up, but here you are. After experiencing 10 hours plus of labour, it didn't seem like my baby and I would make it but God made a way and we had victory. (story for another day) Our God is faithful! Encourage yourself in the Lord this year. Committ all you instead doing to Him. Have hope but work towards achieving your hope. Develop that idea you have. Improve yourself. Above all, make prayer and studying of the word of God a life styl...

WHAT SECRET SIN ARE YOU STRUGGLING WITH

' Secret sin', a dilemma of many born-again Christians. It is secret in the eyes of men but God sees it all. One minute you are on fire for God and before you know it, you are back to ground zero. Just like 'a dog going back to its vomit' (read my post on this). Am talking  about the secret sin that you are secretly enjoying, the one that prinks you, fills you with so much guilt and your conscience won't let you rest. The one that makes us ask ourselves "how will I start praying to my God now that have done this ". Well,  He said we should come come boldly to the throne of grace asking for mercy. Many of us are struggling with one secret sin or more. We have tried to quit on our own. Maybe it's draining our health, stealing your Joy and relationship with God, causing issues in your home, workplace, marriage or financially. The solutions to these 'secret sin' from a personal view are: - Ask for the help of the Holy Spirit. - F...
