A MOMENT IN TIME

Ecclesiastes 8:15

So I commend the enjoyment of life, because there is nothing better for a person under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany them in their toil all the days of the life God has given them under the sun.
--------------------------------------------
      What value does it hold to work through moments after moments and have no gladness within you? It is easy to go through life toiling and toiling, searching and searching; yet you seem not to find and seem not to have enough. 
The world will always have problems. Is only the return of our Messiah that we shall have relief. But now as it is, the world will continue with troubles. You cannot say you will work to have things right. The things that you think are going to be all right will have a bit of problem.

It is evident that you cannot have in full what you think you should have. There always will be gap for improvement. And now concentrating on improvement and solution and toil will have you be an anti-particle to gravity of our economy. You will fly off to endless points. Flying off and lost in work without gladness and satisfaction.

But 'work and work' is not bad. What about you ? Have you forgotten about you, your soul, your body? Don't you think you are a priority? Aren't you important as work itself and don't you think you have work to do with yourself?

 I commend the enjoyment of life, because there is nothing better for a person than to eat and drink and be glad. It is easy to have someone else be a problem to you than you to be a problem to yourself. You care for someone else. It is easy to buy clothes and shoes for your children and friends as gifts on parties. But it is harder to buy for yourself as you think the money is not enough. The not enough 'thing' continues over and over again. That is not what the Bible is telling us. Caring for others is good but you are a priority. Well of course, such can be bent at some point...where someone else comes first, but it still remains a rule for your whole life. 

You cannot be teaching others sermons and teaching holiness without teaching yourself. It is like leading others to heaven while you stay humbly in hell. You are also a problem that needs the 'goodies' of life. A moment in time, eat good, drink good, sleep well. 

A moment in time, cloth and celebrate your life. Go lavish and have delicacy . Get the best treatment at the parlour. There is nothing better for a person under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany them in their toil all the days of the life God has given them under the sun.

                  GOD BLESS YOU

OLDEN STRENGTH

OLDEN STRENGTH Psalm 77:1 I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life thinking about the future and forgetting the past. Craving for the future is one thing I have realized does not end. Even the very rich still have cravings. There can not be a moment where cravings end and the mind is inactive only thriving in gratification. Such a moment is only created by us. Anyway, that was a by- the- way. Our point starts from here. The future does not hold the roots but the past does. The roots are not from the sky but are from where the tree started. What makes the tree strong are the roots .  What makes the future strong are the roots. They are the past. You cannot know where you should go unless you know where you came from. How typical you may know where you came from is another factor.  Knowing that God is great is not knowing the future that holds. Knowing that Go...

TRIBE OF LENDERS

TRIBE OF LENDERS   Proverbs 19:17  He who is kind and generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will reward him for what he has done. -------------------------------------------- It is easy to go through life with the mind of "it's not enough...it's not enough". By nature, we were created to recognize the fact that it's we first then .... We were created to survive and always know that there is not enough. Our genes have been made to think about ourselves alone and how we survive in the world of scarcity. This fact that thrives within us is not supposed to be proved true. There are several results that God has set for those that prove such rules wrong. You know, when you try to go against human nature and try to mimic the nature of God, you attract more of what God has set for the cause. As the human nature is self centered and self seeking, stepping out of such to pursue kindness and open hands attracts God's attention...it attracts the rewa...

RADICAL SOUL

RADICAL SOUL Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. --------------------------------------------    In our world today, it is easier to have your light set under the table than to have it be on top of the table. It is easier to move in a group than to move alone. Standing for the right is harder nowadays than it was those days. Not because the governments have become more ruthless than they were those days, but because powerful governments of social influence have arisen than they were those days. The weapons available today are more stronger than what it was those days with the luxuries available...the developments. The 'social governments' have set standards which will not tolerate any fickle person in their space. And being a standing army of a government we represent...one of divine agendas, means we need to be rooted in one way. We need the spirit of typicality.  Of course...
