WHAT TO DO IN THE PIT

WHAT TO DO IN THE PIT

Matthew 6:25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?
--------------------------------------------
     The rolling stones collect no moth. They gain nothing moving. But there are stones that collect moth as they roll to and fro their zones. Wherever these stones go, they get a lot landing within them. Nothing that passes them escapes their perception. They are an ever ending buccal. And are always hungry for more.
But even when they are hungry for more, their act of satisfaction still leads to several hungers. Hungers that bring in worries and even anxieties. It is through such anxieties that the soul within man loses hope for the things to come.

You see our eyes are rolling stones. The soul within is always on a hunt for what brings pacification within. The mind too hunts for what brings pacification. Wherever we go, the eyes collect everything that comes our way. 
Everything that comes our way might not be the problem. But because we are in constant hunger, many of the things that come our way become the problem. 
This is where anxiety and worries are birthed. We compare notes to see if what comes our way will pacify the ever hungry soul. 

And even in the comparison mode, we don't still get all the answers that we need. We still continue to hunger and forward worries.
The funny thing is the ever hungry soul. Even when we can afford to have food that will basically fill the stomach, we still worry of not eating something better. Even when we can afford basic clothes that will make us look okay, we still worry of not having the best clothes in the room. Because you see your neighbor arriving with a super car, you still worry that your arrival with basic car tagged "container" is not making you part of the whole. But whether you have the "container" car or the super car, thank God that you are able to travel. Whether you have a super watch or a basic watch, thank God that you can tell the time. 
Appreciating for what we have now will make enough room for the arrival of what we want ahead. 
It's like a lot is collected by eyes ,ears ...all landing in a place that will meet God; landing in the soul. A place where really life is. Sort the matter in the pit to suit life. Instead of reaping worries and anxiety, reap happiness and pleasure. In the pit where the eyes throw everything, learn of your focal point and thrive.

                  GOD BLESS YOU

FORWARD

FORWARD Luke 13:33  In any case, I must press on today and tomorrow and the next day—... --------------------------------------------    A Levite in the desert thought was cunning. After killing the Egyptian, he sauntered back to the community. Little did he realise that he was noticed by his fellow and that the news had gone about faster than it could. Knowing this, he fled to Midian where he met the Lord. And being asked by the Lord to rescue his people from slavery, Moses refused. He thought that role was better with someone more superior. But after the Lord insisting, he took the task. The people who were thought as slaves were no lesser to stubbornness and disrespect. They gave Moses hard time. But one thing that happened was forward movement.  Even the Lord used lots of wonders to sustain them through the journey and yet many died from their stubbornness. But regardless of their deaths, the journey went forward. God moved forward. Moses faced the worst of trial...

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...
