We Are So Blessed



It is really human nature to complain, to compare, to whine, to grunt and to blame

When we don't get what we want, even if we have all we need, we complain

We whine when things are not going our way

We compare ourselves with those in the same "Social Class" as us, how they are doing far better than us

We grunt when we are disappointed by those we love

And we blame everything else for our misfortunes but ourselves.

If only we can take out time to check out what God has done for us, then we would know that whenever we complain or whine or grunt or compare or blame, we actually are acting more like unbelievers.

This God gave us the most important things of life for free - the air that we breathe in, the sun that shines (both for the wicked and the good), the rain that falls to water the ground for crops to grow, the green leaves at their season

This God that continually brings us back to the land of the living no matter where we went to while in the land of the spirits

This God that has continually ensured that even if there is famine all around us, we do not die of hunger

This God that kept His Own Side of the Bargain with mankind, by sending and giving His Only Begotten Son to die on the Cross to save mankind from all his iniquities and to clear him of all unrighteousness

This God that has not allowed us to spend a night in a hospital being fed through tubes and syringes

If we really sit down to count our blessings, we would see that in the place of complains, we should actually be praising the Lord

It's our #FantasticFriday
The harbinger of the good news of the on-coming weekend

Be the best you can be today, but thank God for His blessings upon your life and be continually grateful

Daily Fountain 2017 - It Is To Your Advantage

Sunday May 21 5th Sunday After Easter Bible Reading:      John 16: 5 - 22 Topic:          It Is To Your Advantage In life we must be ready to endure some level of discomfort in the present, in order to enjoy comfort in the future. The disciples had become comfortable with the presence and involvement of Jesus in their lives, but Jesus announced to them that it was necessary for Him to return to His Father in order that the Holy Ghost might come. If Jesus stayed, He would be only in one place at a time; but His Spirit would be everywhere at the same time. The disciples had to recognize therefore that growth and maturity come with sacrifice which involves willingness to step out of our comfort zone. God knows the best for you. Be sensitive to the leading of His Spirit. Desire progress but don't reject the change that brings it. Yes, you may be in an uncomfortable situation now, but God uses it to work out His purposes fo

God Is Not A Partial God

  God Is Not A Partial God   I want to say something to someone today and that is the title of this message - God is not a partial God. Every day that the Sun rises, it does not rise for certain people that God loves more than others, it rises for all (including even those who don't believe in the existence of God) Every night that the Moon shines, it does not shine for a select group of persons who God loves most, it shines for all irrespective of their religious affiliations including those who have no religion. The 4 seasons happen for all inhabitants of the earth - there is no discrimination. Life happens to all irrespective of our belief system. Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people. Evil people prosper as much if not much more than good hearted people - Is that God's doing? You see, whenever you see someone doing something exceptional, something extraordinary it is not about luck, it is not about favour, it's not ev
