Title: Love all, even your enemies!

-
See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.
1 Thessalonians 5:15 KJV
Devotion: A true Christian follows the steps of Christ, in fact that's why he is called a Christian. Jesus Christ taught us to love everyone even our enemies and He did that even to the point of death. He healed the ear of the enemy cut off by one of his followers (Luke 22:52), He blessed the people who mocked Him and said father forgive them for they know not what they do.(Luke 23:34)
This same teaching is what Paul is teaching you and me today, never to repay evil with evil, but with love. We should love all even those who did wrong to us. It is by so doing that we will win many over to Christ and to those who refused to repent heap coals of fire on them.(Romans 12:20)
Dearly beloved, how do you respond to that your neighbour who offended you. Show him love and pray for him. Your testimony comes soon, 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 ...
