REFLECTIONS




1. Have you ever had someone believe in you in ways that you did not even believe in yourself? How did it make you feel? Did you behave differently as a result of their respect?



2. Are there people you know who benefit from added respect? What can you do to enhance their self-esteem and release their potential? What "cows" can you offer them as a symbol of your respect?



3. Like Jonny Lingo, most everyone has been the victim of undue gossip- a clear violation of the principle of respect. When you hear gossip in the social circle, do you pass it on or smother it as its roots?



4. For the first time at sixteen, Dudley felt part of a group. Are there people you know who would benefit from being part of your circle?



5. When was the last time you celebrated a neighbours difference? 



6. When last did you go out of your way to meet someone's need, financially in your local church, at work, within your family, at the charity homes etc?

Waiting is painful. The pain is excruciating. Waiting makes you look stupid as though na only you waka come. But, keep feeding your faith during the painful season of waiting! Romans 10:17. Something I've learnt; seasons of waiting are not seasons of inactivity. A lot is going on! GOD is working; orchestrating events. Happy New Month. 😇

GUARD YOUR HEART AND SPACE!

The enemy has one goal; for you to change the way you're talking. The tongue is a creative force!  A few years ago, I literally was magneting good things, especially people of like minds, money, material things. Everyday favour was my lifestyle. I had a stubborn faith, it annoyed a lot of people, because they felt I was not being realistic, yet everyday brought even better favours. I got a job I didn't apply for;  a very good one!  B ut you see, when your faith is not being sharpened, even though you think you're standing, you'll wake up one day and realise you've hit the rock bottom! Guard your heart and space with all diligence! No matter who the person is, if they are not speaking your faith language, do not make room for them to feel comfortable with their faithless opinions and ideologies. If the church you attend doesn't stir your faith or belief, LEAVE!  Protect your faith journey by living daily on GODS' word and NEVER budge! THE WORD OF GOD WORKS! #
