The perfect example

 "And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour." Ephesians  5:2 


Christianity is a life of love. I reckon the power of God never flows without love in action. The scriptures talk about how Jesus taught His disciples on the right "sacrifice",  Matthew  5:23 "Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;  5:24 Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.". I remember the first time I ever saw this scripture, it demystified my understanding of God as just a Spirit, I found out that God really is a person, one who wants peace amongst all men, He says no matter what gift you bring to Him, if you're not right or in right terms with another person your gift will not be accepted. Hmmmnn, could this be the reason why many at times seem to pray and even give offerings and don't seem to get results. Well, the scripture is clear concerning love amongst all men. Yes, there are times you try to make peace with others and yet it seems they're just difficult to deal with, but its very different when you know you've got to make peace with others and yet you remain adamant. Christianity is a vehicle, Love is the engine. Do have a great day ahead.

Going on to know Him

People easily judge other people when they don't know them. We all may be guilty of this. A Lotta times, we stereotype people by how they look, their dressing and outward mannerisms ever before we hear them speak. I have been shocked many times of how guilty I've been with this. The most recent of such a person I nearly badly stereotyped turned out to be such an incredible person, so different and special in her way and she helped me in many beautiful ways such that we became pretty cool friends in the space of just a few months but this was the same lady I almost thought was way away from my type of friends. We've all made such mistakes so don't look at me that wayπŸ˜ΆπŸ˜‡. When we were done with the project that brought us together, I offered to take us to an icecream spot- it would probably be the last time we were seeing so it was my way of saying "thanks". There I told her how I had felt about her when I first saw her and she was somewhat unsurprised and sa...
