Title: One important Attribute of Love.

-
Love, rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 1 Corinthians 13:6 KJV
Devotion: The amplified bible translates the verse above thus.... "It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail".
1 Corinthians 13:6 AMPC.
   Real or truthful love does not tolerate sin or evil act, it will condemn sin unequivocally. Love is made happy where righteousness prevail.
But unfortunately it is not so in the society again, people tend to celebrate people of questionable character, persons whose source of wealth is not known are the ones praised in the society. The reason is not far fetched - love of money. 
 A family prefers to give their daughter in marriage to the highest bidder without asking how such an one made his money. But we children of God must not join the worldly standard, we must maintain God's standard. We must abhor evil and love righteousness.
 In your place of work or home don't cover up evil because you love the person, call the person aside and correct him/her in love. Do this before the authority discovers iniquity and punish, then you have shown love.
  Dearly beloved, are you trying to make a choice of husband or wife, do not let things of the world blind you. Think not of pecuniary gain but check it with God's standard. Your life must meet God's standard, there's no compromise, God wants only 100% not 99.9%. 
 What's your thought on this, please share it with us. 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 ...
