What Will You Be Remembered For?

Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
   - Ephesians 5:15-16 NIV

In life, it's not about how long you lived but how well you lived. One day you will be gone forever for this earth, when you are gone, what do you want to be remembered for?

No matter how long you live on this earth, you are surely going to die. So what would you have done with time you were alive on this earth. You must have a purpose for living. Don't just be alive for nothing. Take up a cause and follow it up. Impact people around you. Life is not about you gathering riches and other materials thing but it's about what you did with them. 

Did you serve people well or you oppress them? Are you that landlord that keep increasing the rent or that employer that keep short-changing your employees? The children in your care, did you teach and lead them right?
Are you that dad/mom that treat your step children badly? Or are you that person that looks down on everyone else?

When death comes, will you be remembered for good or bad?
Pause a moment and ask yourself this 'if I die now, am  I a worthy candidate of heaven'?

Nothing we brought into this world and certainly we are taking nothing away. So start living a purposeful life that involving you impacting on lives positively. Be generous. Be good even to your enemies. Share the knowledge you have. Start caring. Be actively involved in the developmental projects. Be the best dad/mom sister/brother lover/friend husband/wife. Walk in love and stop being jealous.

If you are in government, serve the people well. Don't embezzle taxpayer's money.

Life on this earth will surely come to an end. Stop living life as if you won't die because we all will. 

When I died, I want to be remembered for good deeds and I want God to say 'Well done my faithful servant'  

It's my prayer that you wouldn't miss everlasting life.

Good Morning beloved and do have a purposeful day.

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...
