Title: Living Peaceably.

-
Put up with one another. Forgive one another if you are holding something against someone. Forgive, just as the Lord forgave you. Colossians 3:13 NIRV
Devotion: The world is a complex place to live in. There multiple tribes, cultures and characteristics of different people. Even among siblings there's a difference in character; it therefore becomes difficult to live with some people. 
 But the bible says live peacefully or peaceably with one another. The way I understand it is this: live peaceably with other children of God even when they make you angry. It does not say live peaceably with unbelievers, antichrist or people who can kill you in the name of their gods. You have to run away from such people. You can only pray for the unbeliever to believe, you can't live with them lest they make you sin against God.
 Presently in my country some people kill christians to satisfy their gods I don't think we should live peaceably with them rather we should distance ourselves from them and pray that the Holy Spirit arrest them and turn them to Christ.
  Dear reader, how do you understand this topic, kindly share your thoughts with me. Peace! Hallelujah.

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 ...
