Respect. (Mal. 1:6)




Respect; the first in this 13 part series of my R.E.S.P.O.N.S.I.B.I.L.I.T.Y  as a Christian.









 As a Christian I should respect God and everything He stands for, this means respecting my Pastor, respecting my boss and respecting people that He has put in my life. By obeying, by respecting Him is giving honor where is due, because He deserves it; who else would've died for me? who else would've taken my place? who else would've taken my punishment?

By not obeying Him I am disrespecting Him and everything he stands for, by disrespecting authority I am disrespecting divine order. I should honor Him in everything that I say or do.

By not being on time to work or to church, I am not honoring Him, I am not respecting Him, even partial obedience is disobedience (1 Tim. 5:21)  I need to be more faithful to the service of my church, which means I must be more faithful to God.

If one is faithful to God and honors Him in everything he/she does, God will take care of the details.


We should respect God and everything He stands for, we should be on time to our jobs and to our services at church, we should always obey our pastors because they watch over us (Hebrews 13:17)

A must....

What have I done? What have you done? Are we really serving our Lord with all our heart and soul? Are we really in love with our Lord? Has our priority changed? Has our values changed? have our focus in life changed? And if so, who made us changed it? Why can't we just accept God's will and stop making excuses, who are trying to hide from? To whom do our hearts belong to to? I must stop making excuses and start living the life that God wants me to live. We must stop making excuses and start living for God and not for ourselves.

God's Faithfulness

As I was on my way to church, I had an accident on my bike; trying to make a turn but silly me, I put all of my weight on one handle bar and my bike got twisted. Thanks to God there were no cars behind me or it would've been more serious, I would've ended up in a hospital. God's faithfulness surpasses our own understanding; we are sinners and we the deserve the worst. I  should have ended up in the hospital for the sinner  I am;but by God's amazing grace I am still alive. I am alive for a very good reason and I haven't been faithful to God, but He still he wants to use us. What ever happens in your life, know that God permits it for a good reason; be it for you to grow strong in the Lord, to show you a lesson that He and only He can give you happiness and joy, and to mold you into a great master piece for the advancement of the Gospel. Words cannot express how I feel towards God, for the things He has done; even though I don't deserve it.

Constant struggle

In life, you'll face your worst enemy; yourself. There is a constant struggle between your soul that is born again and that of your old nature. That old nature was you before God came into your life. Now you are a new person; but you got to nurture that part of yourself that is connected to God. There will be times in your life when you will feel that you can't continue like that; letting God down. God knows your limit, He knows your weakness and knows what you are capable of. God knows that you are  capable to triumph over that sin, which doesn't leave  you alone; but your view is blocking that that is good and healthy for your soul. Dont go thru life without telling God your sorry, that your sorry for being so stubborn, so childish. We all are fools for trusting ourselves, when we had the opportunity to trust Him who died for us and gave his life for us. Please understand that God wants your well being, dont let your problems and struggles block  that which...
