Are you living?

Are you enjoying the life you are living?
When you wake in the morning are you happy with the current state you are in?
The accomplishments you have are they for you or for those around you?
What gives you joy?
What makes you smile?
Is it the money in your pocket or the hearts you have touched by the things you do?
Is life just about getting by? Or is it about making a difference?
Think about it and please don't lie 
Are you happy with the life you live or are you still asking why?
Why are you here? Why have I chosen this path?

You can accumulate all the wealth and still have a deep void within
Think long and hard and ask yourself am I living for me or for those around me?
Are your parents telling you how to live your life and you are no longer a child?
Don't get me wrong we all need guidance and a helping hand
However, at the end of the day you will have to live with the decisions you have made 
Will you be happy with those decisions then? 
Are you living the life you have always dreamed of?

This world can pull you in many directions and make you reconsider all the plans you have for your life
Take charge,stand firm, it's all in your mind and what you set your mind to you will achieve
Despite the negativity, the hatred in the words from those around you
Do what you know is best for you 
Again I say are you being the best you?
Are you able to smile when you look back at your life
That's all I really want to ask you

Church ministry without God

Have you ever been to a church service and when the singers are singing you feel nothing? You can hear the words coming out of their mouths but they have no  conviction whatsoever? Music is one of the most important parts of church ministry and if God isn't in it, it shouldn't be called Gospel music to begin with. Some singers in church sing for self! They know they are blessed with beautiful voices so they use the church to showcase it but it isn't about ministry. It is simply to let people know what they have going on. They stand before you and they have blank expressions on their faces, while they sing such powerful lyrics. They aren't moved by it but they somehow expect that the congregation will be. The next issue is that of the modern day Gospel music. Call me old fashion but it isn't my flavour at all. Why should I have to be wondering whether I'm listening to Gospel or I'm at a dancehall event? Why does the church have to change itself to resemb...

Be more thankful

It's so easy for us to complain it's like we do it everyday. Are we more thankful for the blessings we have no matter how small they seem? It seems to me that more than ever people are more ungrateful than they are grateful. No matter how bad things are always remember that they could be much worse. Our house isn't big so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a house. Our pay cheque is small so we complain rather than be thankful that we have a job. Our skin isn't flawless so we complain instead of be thankful that we still have our skin to protect our bodies. Our body isn't sculpted perfectly so we complain instead of being thankful that all our body parts are still functioning. Our world is very ungrateful and we can never seem to be satisfied no matter how many blessings we have. This week I ask of you to be thankful for something everyday no matter how small it may seem.

This World

  A world where people don't love you if you can't supply them with all the material things they need. A world where people marry just to get citizenship in a country. A world where the most educated aren't the ones given the best of jobs. A world where the television and internet are left to teach our children values. A world where the leaders of the church spend more money on church buildings tha n feeding the poor. A world where children receive guns before they receive a book to read. A world where in one half of the world people fight for an apple to eat while in the other we pick,choose and refuse what to eat. A world where we cry when we have no new clothes or shoes but some have never felt the warmth of a shirt and pants on their cold flesh. A world where politicians get increases in pay while the citizens are placed on wage freeze for years. A world where everybody proclaims they can't trust anybody. A world where girls value are always occupied with their look...
