Title : One Standard

-
"Let the deacons be the husbands of one wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. 
1 Timothy 3:12"
Devotion : God gave the same guidelines to those who desire to be bishops, pastors, cathechist, church worker in whatever category. God is keeping a watchful eye on the family, which is the fabric of society; when the family progresses society progresses, and vice versa.
Unfortunately we have many christians with one wife but having extramarital affairs these later days. This is the reason for the scandals we read about involving Christian leaders. What do we do to stop it? We need to teach the congregants more and prayerfully chose the Deacons and Deaconesses even among the monogamous Christian families in our churches. Any Christian who is able to put his own house or home in order and at peace does the same for Christ in the church is qualified. God will not lower His standard because of you and me. Are you ready to serve Him?
  Dear reader, God is still appointing leaders in His kingdom; make yourself available for His appointments.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

-
Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
