Redefining Relationships.

Good friends are gifts from God. Ask David and Jonathan. It is a good thing to have someone going somewhere same time as you, it is a wonderful thing to have somewhere you both are going somewhere and the same place at the same time and it is great to have people who don't necessarily have to go your way, but can connect, help and add value when you meet them. If friendship becomes a burden instead of a mutual benefit, then its high time for a rethink, discussion and adjustment in the relationship or a personal crosscheck of lifestyle.  One mustn't weaken the other rather they are to help each other to grow. It must be founded on and in Love. Love is a person with a personality - God and not just a feeling.  The expression of God to man, man in Christ and man to other men is Love. The fact that you like the person isn't enough for a solid friendship. You must also have a definition and destination. What is your friendship all about and where it's leading...

Thou Sluggard...

A person who is habitually lazy is known as a sluggard. Can u imagine that you are given a work that involves that you must have a partner, then you find out that the other person isn't active(not because he doesn't have strength, but he doesn't like working hard) when the work had started already?  Even if you try to cover up for the work by overworking yourself, you either end the work late or get sick after the work. Why would anyone want to work with a lazy man? But sometimes that man doesn't even know he's lazy. He needs someone to tell him.  Until an external force acts on a resting body, it will enjoy and believe that's the best place and situation is his present state. In the case of a lazy man, he doesn't even see the reason to work or put things together.  The Lord has advice and a command for the sluggard. He is saying  You lazy fool, look at an ant.  Watch it closely; let it teach you a thing or two "(Proverbs 6:6 MSG). An ant i...

Possessing or positioning

The condition of having or owning something is called a possession. When a man buys, got, or steal something, so far it has changed hands from one person to the other (whether legal or illegal), wherever that thing is found is a possession to whoever claims it. Position on the other hand is a place where someone or something should be. " Should " in the definition shows that its an expected place. People have been finding a way to fit in so many places, but just because you fit somewhere doesn't mean that it is your place. Finding your place has to do with who you are first. In the process of knowing who you are, you will get to know what you are meant to do and where you are supposed to be. When you understand who you are, then you can take your place and have what you want. We have confused positioning to possessing things. They are two different things as defined above but could be related. When the positioning is right, the possession is given....

The Legacy Of Our Lineage

   A legacy is defined as something that happens in the past or comes from someone in the past. Something that can also be called an inheritance or birthright that has become a generational one. It could be a property, money, disease, or a specific way of life. Just like legacy has been defined above, it can be passed down. The passing down of those things to the people of the next generation of the same bloodline or family. The people who are in someone's family in past times are called lineage . The legacy of "our" lineage means there is a group of people involved in this kind of bloodline. And we are talking about nobody but the Abrahamic lineage . This is a special kind of lineage( a chosen generation, a peculiar people that became a holy nation) that has been set apart from the foundation of the world to show forth the praises of Him that always call things and people out of darkness into His marvelous light. The man Abraham was testified about b...

Drop that mallet!

Criticism is the order of the day. Many people want to say something they believe is not normal. Christians criticizing other's faith because they " think " they are doing too much than expected. They not only spot how different people are, but also condemn how they pursue after heavenly goals and principles.  As a matter of fact, they make them look and feel like nerds and freaks, calling them sorts of names like the over-hyped Christians and so on forgetting that some of these people are humans too. They have emotions and thereby causing some to fall from the Christian path or make their journey/race a slow one. One thing that we must know as Christian is we are not to condemn anyone. Christ never condemn anyone, in fact His birth, death and resurrection were never to do so, but to create a godly sorrow that works repentance towards God in the heart of men(2 Corinthians 7:10). So if you think you are "very" righteous (than Christ Jesus) to b...
