A glut of opportunities

 Ecclesiastes  11:6 "In the morning sow thy seed, and in the evening withhold not thine hand: for thou knowest not whether shall prosper, either this or that, or whether they both shall be alike good."

Many heresies hold in our world today, and one of such is the infamous saying "opportunities come but once". This is one of the greatest lies ever told in the history of mankind. Opportunities never come but once, however opportunities can be missed, but opportunities don't come but once, opportunities can come at anytime and everytime, in fact opportunities abound, all we have are mostly unprepared people. A prepared person can always create an atmosphere of endless opportunities for himself. Opportunities abound in our world today, all that's required is a prepared mindset to fertilize such opportunities when they arise to birth productivity and greatness. In addition, not all opportunities that look too good to be true are falsehood. For example, we live in a global world where money making opportunities are increasing online, however the fact there are scams doesn't mean all money making opportunities are scams. You could take advantage of one of the online ventures proven to be legit and make some good earnings. The scripture above gives an understanding on taking opportunities when they come, it says sow your seed in the morning and in the evening also it says don't stop, this gives a picture of taking your opportunities and chances and trusting God for a positive outcome. Grace doesn't work in a vacuum. There's always a role of activity to play always. God gives men, but men have a role to take what God gives. Make a most of opportunities this week. Do have a blissful week ahead.😀

Apostle Peter- Running 1

A blend of Bible stories, revelations and fiction (literature license) about Peter's life and somewhat complex choices and decisions. Sit back, relax, cappuccino and enjoy! And Peter was running again, away from the persecution that had once again broken out against the Church. Jesus had been long gone. He missed Him. He still had nostalgia and goose bumps whenever he remembered just how divine Jesus was. He had seen Jesus do a lot of amazing miracles but none quite like the last one- he and his other folks, some 50 of them watched as Jesus levitated into the heavens until no physical eyes could see him again. He said He was going to heaven and of course that was true- Peter knew now by deep conviction that he'd walked with God Himself. And for some reason he thought himself a friend of God. He knew he was going to see Jesus again sometime soon. There was no debate in his heart about this. He loved Jesus or perhaps God- they were one and the same persons to him now. He ...

PLB Editorial- Cheers 🍻 to life!

Jesus, while speaking to listeners in John 6 talked of them eating his flesh and drinking his blood and how this would forever quench their hunger and thirst. Most of the people who heard this couldn't receive it, it seemed as if Jesus was trying to initiate them into some cult where they'd all be required to be cannibals. Yet Jesus, unapologetic as He always was didn't even try to break it down to their understanding, instead He said "those who hear and learn from my Father come to me". On that day some of His disciples left Him, citing how His teaching and doctrine was too controversial and hard to take. Howbeit none from the popular 12 left. Fast forward to 1Corinthians11:24 and Paul is reiterating the events of the Jesus' last supper with His disciples as He received it from God. Jesus used those words again "this is my body" and "this is the cup of the new testament in my blood" and required of us to break and eat and also to drink. ...
