Covering of Hair: What Really matters?

Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.  
- Matthew 23:23

As expected, yesterday post generated some ripples which are very welcome. But I would like to state that the purpose of my post is not to condemn any doctrine or whatsoever. It was to call our attention to that fact that there are edifying things to talk about than than argue over who should cover the  head or not. Jesus told The hypocritical religious leaders of His time that there are weightier things, things that matter. We shouldn't be arguing over the style of a particular church, we shouldn't say our church is better than someone else, we shouldn't criticize one another  because of hair covering as we are one body. 

The souls of the unsaved matters more than covering of head. We must understand the fact the because a lady cover her head doesn't mean she will enter heaven. Those are minor things and shouldn't be contentious among we believers.

So many times we condemned others because they don't worship God In our own style which you think and believe is right. As a matter of personal principle, I don't condemn churches that allow women with their hair uncovered neither do I condemn those that allow women with their hair covered. Salvation is a personal race, we all have equal access to the manual and the map which is the Bible.

Stop feeling guilty that you are not worshiping God in a particular style. Stop forcing yourself to blend with a style of Religion. Come to God the way you are and let Him lead you the way He wants. He is the Builder, you are His Clay, let Him mould you into what He and He alone want.

It's a beautiful day. It's has been a beautiful week, I look forward to the beautiful weekend. Lol.

Good Morning and have a blessed Thursday.

Made a Way: The Story Behind The Song

Made a way is a song written and sang by award winning artist Travis Greene in the year 2015. Many people knows the song but few actually know the story behind the song. The song was actually borne out of a personal testimony of Travis Greene. According to the artist, 'Made a Way' was written during an impossible situation. His pregnant wife’s water broke at 21 weeks, when pregnancy normally takes between 37-42 weeks. The doctors said the possibility of the baby’s survival is slim to none, and it was during this period when his wife was on bed rest for two months that he wrote the song. There was nothing else for them to hold on to but faith, and the good news is that as slim as the chance was, it didn’t break because faith held it together and today their baby boy is alive.  When Jesus was on His way to heal Jairus’s daughter and news came that things had gone from bad to worse, that the girl was dead. Jesus overheard and said, "Don't be upset. Just trust me...

Unlimited Thanksgiving

 "Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus." - 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Our thanksgiving should be unlimited. Even If we have thousands tongue to thank God with, it can never be enough. Looking all around you, you will always find a reason to thank God. This year might be so challenging for you, things might not have gone smoothly as you expected, nevertheless you have got to thank God. We do not thank God FOR difficult situation but we thank God IN difficult situation. Don't just be that person that only does thanksgiving when things are going on fine. Don't be that person that thank God seasonally. Don't be that person that thank God only when they have a 'big' testimony to share. Don't be that person that just thank God just because the preacher asked them to. God has been so good from ages past. No one else deserves our appreciation more than Him. You will be...
