REAPING WHAT YOU SOW

I gave this title after reading this story because it's funny how we in life want to be treated better than we treat others, want more attention than we can give to others, want people to run after us as if we are God's blessings to mankind whereas we are just mere mortals who can't see beyond or noses... lets face it we will all reap what we sow someday, whether it be good or bad, like the popular proverb in my country says... only the bad person or a person with the guilty conscience will not say "AMEN" when this prayer is said... "may it be unto us as we have done to others". In other words, what the proverb means, is that we are aware of our treatment of others whether they be our friends or family even acquaintances... funny enough they too are aware of the treatment we give to them and will oblige someday wether in a good way or in a not so good way.

Like the lesson in this story teaches ...

"A son and his father were walking on the mountains.
Suddenly, his son falls, hurts himself and screams: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating, somewhere in the mountain: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Curious, he yells: "Who are you?"
He receives the answer: "Who are you?"
And then he screams to the mountain: "I admire you!"
The voice answers: "I admire you!"
Angered at the response, he screams: "Coward!"
He receives the answer: "Coward!"
He looks to his father and asks: "What's going on?"
The father smiles and says: "My son, pay attention."
Again the man screams: "You are a champion!"
The voice answers: "You are a champion!"
The boy is surprised, but does not understand.
Then the father explains: "People call this ECHO, but really this is LIFE.
It gives you back everything you say or do.
Our life is simply a reflection of our actions.
If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart.
If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence.
This relationship applies to everything, in all aspects of life;
Life will give you back everything you have given to it."

YOUR LIFE IS NOT A COINCIDENCE. IT'S A REFLECTION OF YOU that's not to say that we are not good in certain ways but let's try our best in making our relationships work and make a difference in our world.

God bless you

    We should give without expectations...but the problem is, we feel unappreciated as humans when we don't get back the gifts in return. We have to go beyond the call of that thought process and think in a whole new way... Then, we'll have less disappointments.

    Beautifully written!

    Godbless you ~Deb... cos you got the picture of what this life is all about. what a picture you painted with your comment! I actually wanted to write more on your comment but then again I realised that you said it all.
    " We have to go beyond the call of that thought process and think in a whole new way... Then, we'll have less disappointments.
    " just like you stated we really have to get beyond ourselves to really love one another and avoid being offended by our fellow human beings. believe me only the Holy Spirit can make you know how to process these feelings on has in life.
    THANK GOD FOR THE HOLY GHOST!!!

    Cheers my dear

    That's the thing----"our flesh" goes against our spiritual nature----the Holy Ghost. This is why we're all sinners. Through Christ, we're saved, but the process of letting go...and letting God take control of your body is a very HUGE thing for people. We're all control freaks---even those who won't admit to it. We want to hold on to our problems, but we say, "Here Jesus, take away my problems!" But we don't let go of it. He tries to take it, but we hold on -- thinking we can do a better job at it than He can. Interesting, isn't it?

    I'm trying SO hard to let go and let God take over. I try - and then realize I did it "my way".

    The carnal and Spirit conflict one another. I wonder why it's so hard. Hmm. ?

    What a wonderful analogy of exactly the way life is...all too often we or better yet I will say "I" forget the results of life are due to the way I choose or do not choose to see them...as well as my response or reaction to them.
    "life IS what you make it"

    THis reminds me of the prayer of St. Francis. "Let us ask to consoled rather than be consoled"
    So true.
    Blessings to you today,

Todd Bentley, Divorcing His Wife!!!

I never knew I would write any article on Todd Bentley, because I deliberately avoided the topic while it was raging all over, even though my husband was very vocal against him and his group then, he is even telling me right now that he is not surprised about this piece of news . With this recent development in  Todd Bentley's marital life even, there are many questions that Christians need to search for the answers Spiritually and in the scriptures. . . also hold him accountable for the gospel he preached, especially if he is not living it. Enough about the people Preaching something else  and doing another, I wonder why some Spirit- filled men and women of God are not on TV? Money . . . I guess Separation May End Bentley’s Lakeland Appearances Todd Bentley , the evangelist who has led the Florida Outpouring revival here in Lakeland since April 2, has filed for separation from his wife and might not return to the revival, according to his former local spokesperson, Lynne Brei

Todd Bentley's Unholy Affair!

I know some of  you might not like /love me for this post , or might not even want to  visit my blog after this but , am addressing this Todd Bentley issue because of the fact that God has vindicated me and all those who asked this same question about Todd Bentley and His ways. Secondly to address the erroneous feeling that I in some way, am enjoying what is happening to Todd  Bentley and his Ministry.  . . far from that! In fact am  ashamed and sad that so - called Christians are busy deceiving  others and making it difficult for real Christians to do  the work of God Almighty in this day and age . . .  where the devil is pulling all the stops to make sure that Christians find things difficult in this life. The reason for  my  previous post was because I was baffled about his divorce and I wondered why a man who claimed to do  all those mighty things suddenly, wants out of his marriage to his  wife of many years . Even though as I woman of God  by the Spirit of God I felt there was

The Miracle Of Prayer

Image
by David J. Stewart I t is disturbing to find so many people that fail to believe God answers prayer. Several top “authors” and so-called “professionals” being interviewed on TV lately, have claimed that prayer is a great therapy (as an end in itself). You never hear them mention God. It is sad that prayer has been diminished to the status of going to the park to watch the birds. Prayer is not effective because it is a good therapy. Prayer is effective because there is an omnipotent (all powerful) God up in heaven that hears and answers prayer !  I am leery of bumper sticker theology.  I see bumper stickers promoting about the "Power of Prayer," but prayer is nothing without a Powerful Divine God.  I believe in the "Power of God." Answered prayer can only happen by a miracle of God. A “Miracle” is defined in the Random House College Dictionary as “an event in the physical world that surpasses all known human or natural powers and is ascribed to a divine or s
