Title: Like little Children!

-
Jesus said, “What I’m about to tell you is true. You need to change and become like little children. If you don’t, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Anyone who takes the humble position of this child is the most important in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3‭-‬4 NIRV.
Devotion: Little children are mostly beautiful beings in and out. They are innocent and often very friendly especially amongst other children. They are playful, they easily fight over toys but almost IMMEDIATELY FORGIVE and play together again. This attribute differentiates children from adults. Children don't keep malice, gossip, covet, tell lies or do some of the evil things adults do.
This is why Jesus says to enter the kingdom of heaven one must become as little Children in character in addition to accepting Christ as Lord and Saviour. Any one who will make heaven must be able to live a simple life, have a forgiving spirit and live a life of total obedience as a child does.
Let's examine our lives this morning, is our character comparable to that of a child, do we still do things of the flesh? Galatians 5: 19-21. Any one who is controlled by the flesh is not a child and will not make heaven. Let's return to the basics. May God help us in Jesus name. 
Dear reader, do you have concerns to share with us, please do. Hallelujah.

Many think life is all about the natural life but Jesus is the life beyond this present world. Choose Jesus and you would have these three most priceless keys in life.

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 ...
