Title: Charity

-
rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; 1 Corinthians 13:6 KJV.
Devotion: The word charity according to Marriam-Webster dictionary means -benevolent goodwill toward or love of humanity. This can be translated broadly to mean agape love. It is not the sensual love. Therefore its attributes are different from infatuation which most young or selfish persons describe as love.     
Charity rejoices in truthfulness, does and lives right always. It cannot be found wanting, it is selfless and ready to lay down its life for others (Jesus Christ). This is what Jesus did and He is the epitome of love. 
The question this morning is do you easily commit sinful acts and pass it off as politics or business. Do you tell lies and see nothing wrong in it? Have you been running around with different women or persons of questionable character and you see nothing wrong in so doing? Dear reader charity does not get involved in these rather it is happy in living right, helping and teaching others to live right always according to the word of God.
  Dearly beloved, let us get back to basics the old fashioned Christian life. It is the truthful agape life. Jesus lives it, Paul and the Apostles did; if truly we are His disciples we have to live the truthful life.
May God help us in Jesus name, Amen. Please share your thoughts with us.

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 ...
