God or Gold?

And Jesus said to them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consists not in the abundance of the things which he possesses. - Luke 12:15

So many people do chase after After gold and miss out God. Not knowing that chasing God is better than chasing Gold.

The life of a man is not about what he owns or buy. We live in a materialistic world. We have to be careful because there is the danger of falling if we don't take heed.

Its good to have money, but money shouldn't define who or what you are.

We ain't called into Jesus-like life to show off. No! The purpose of our life is to showcase the glory of God.

Its not about us but about God. God want us to live a good life, no doubt. A good life is the life that draws people to Jesus. So ask Yourself, the prosperity you are enjoying, are you using it for God's glory or its just about you?

Perhaps, you haven't reached the financial level you wanted and you are seriously chasing after money.  Well, its good to make money but you priority should be to chase God.

Money won't solve everything for you in life. Materials can be gone tomorrow. What last forever is only of God and for God.

Its a beautiful Monday Morning. I pray that you will get it right in this life in your pursuit of happiness. Remember If you chase Gold, you miss God but if you chase God, you get Gold.

Good morning and do have a blessed week.

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...

Song: These Walls

You are good and do good;....  - Psalm 119:68  Few months back, I came across an inspiring song by Jason David who happens to be a pastor.  He was diagnosed with cancer. After a year-long fight with cancer that claimed much of his tongue, Pastor Jason David refuses to stop singing. "These Walls" is an original worship song he wrote that became his anthem as he fought through several surgeries, chemotherapy & radiation. For someone going through challenges; financial, health, marital, academic, whatever it may be, I pray this song will bless you - no matter what walls or mountains you may face, God is greater & God is good!  Below are the lyrics of the song: Verse: You are greater than these walls I'm circling  You are stronger than these army  I see You are bigger than these mountains that I faced And I will choose only to praise You.
