Title: Pray before you start your work!

-
Commit thy works unto the LORD, And thy thoughts shall be established.
Proverbs 16:3 KJV
Devotion: 
 As a child I lived with my maternal grandmother along with some other aged women. The other women were idol worshipers; I observed one very important act of them and that was they never do anything or go out without consulting their idol. If idol worshipers could be that faithful how much more I a child of God. My grandma was Anglican and she would call me to prayer before we got out of the one room apartment.
  These days it matters little to so many people to pray before getting out of the house and it is not right. Today is Monday the first working day in the Christian world. Whatever day it is to you does not matter, the most important thing is to follow the godly counsel as presented by King Solomon in Proverbs 16:3 above. 
  Let us make it a habit to commit our ways, work or whatever unto God before we embark on it. God promised to prosper the labours of our hand(Deuteronomy 28:12, etc) but if we fail to commit it to Him can we blame God if we fail to prosper?
 Dear reader, what is your thought on this, share your testimony or experience with us. Shalom.

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 ...
