Count yourself blessed

“You’re blessed when you’re at the end of your rope. With less of you there is more of God and his rule

“You’re blessed when you feel you’ve lost what is most dear to you. Only then can you be embraced by the One most dear to you.

“You’re blessed when you’re content with just who you are—no more, no less. That’s the moment you find yourselves proud owners of everything that can’t be bought.

“You’re blessed when you’ve worked up a good appetite for God. He’s food and drink in the best meal you’ll ever eat. “You’re blessed when you care. At the moment of being ‘care-full,’ you find yourselves cared for.

“You’re blessed when you get your inside world—your mind and heart—put right. Then you can see God in the outside world.

“You’re blessed when you can show people how to cooperate instead of compete or fight. That’s when you discover who you really are, and your place in God’s family.

“You’re blessed when your commitment to God provokes persecution. The persecution drives you even deeper into God’s kingdom

. “Not only that—count yourselves blessed every time people put you down or throw you out or speak lies about you to discredit me. What it means is that the truth is too close for comfort and they are uncomfortable. You can be glad when that happens—give a cheer, even!—for though they don’t like it, I do! And all heaven applauds. And know that you are in good company. My prophets and witnesses have always gotten into this kind of trouble.

Matthew 5:3‭-‬12 MSG

Just me thinking

It is every man worst nightmare dating or marrying someone with a crazy past..because in the back of your mind you still feel she is still the same person she was back then... You will be constantly competing with shadows trying to impress .trying to be the best thing that ever happened to her...bt how can you compete with what you really don't know? ???.vanity of vanities 

You get an innocent girl you marry her the world changes her she becomes your worst nightmare. ..is there any value in marriage at all....do we really have to marry...in marriage who benefits most. . Should we just follow what Apostle Paul suggested ..(it is better that you stay alone. .).. Y

You make children the government dictates on how you should discipline them. .if you discipline them in a way they don't approve they refer to it as abuse. ...if your kid becomes a menace in the street it is all blamed on poor parenting. 

..confusing it is. . Christians suggest we use our knees in dealing with every challenges in our lives..the world suggest we must be in control of our environment. .

 The bottom line is the world is rotating too fast for us..lots of wisdom is at our reach..and most of the times this knowledge is contradictory depending on who you believe you are.. If you want to achieve anything out of this life..choose one path of life and stick to it. .shun all the other wisdom contrary to your beliefs. .thus you will live a pure life ... 

 Indecision is a killer...you can't serve two masters..there is one God and one truth..all the other wisdom or knowledge the world is giving is useless... Seek God with all your heart you shall live...worry not about the world ,its pleasures and the worldly demands or else you will fail on worshipping God fully.... 

 Do not give your life fully to anything in the world. .devote your life to be Christ like..do not expect anything from the world. ..marriage wont give you happiness and fulfillment in life only God can give you that if you put him first in your life... Money alone wont give you happiness. .if God is not part of that money ..woe to you for many are your sorrows... Lets learn to submit to God so he can reveal his secrets to us..so our lives can be protected. ..
