Different thoughts

The world is so diverse; there are different kinds of people, White, black, colored, Asians etc. Even though we are all different we all have a common thing, God. We all have weaknesses and we need God. We are all under the control of God. He also allows us not to follow Him (not Good for us). To follow Him is always the best choice. Some people are very blessed because growing up they were not taught to be inferior or superior to other races and people. Even amongst the different races, there are different cultures and classes. There is no doubt that we cannot survive independent of each other. For example God blessed Europeans and Americans so that they may spread His word but it seems they then became selfish and guess what is happening, Africa and Asia are beginning to rise, I hope we will do the will of God. There are so many people that we are involved with in our lives and the questions we should always ask ourselves is “Do I feel inferior or superior to another perso...

Who are You

From reading the Books written by Paul, one sure thing stands out. He knew what He was called to do. In most of his introductions He says calls himself an Apostle. The one I like is the one in 1 Corinthians 1:1"Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God ,..." It seems that it was not his own doing and it was not by his strength that He was chosen to be an apostle. It was just simply the will of God. It is important to step into the will of God for our lives. What is the will of God for your life? What does God want you to do? We are not to step into a will that we are not called into, it is called stealing. This will never bring peace and it will always cause you to strife within yourself and with others. Peace comes from yielding ourselfs to the will of God. (yielding to righteousness Romans 6:13). Yielding to what God has called us to do does not require our strength but it requires surrender. 

There she is Lebo (Lebza the Lady)

One and Only 

My Wife to be

This Blog is one of the very important blogs I have ever written because it is about someone special in my life. I am currently in the internet cafe and I cannot post a picture of her because I do not have some pictures with me. Saturday the 28th November is the day when my family is going to meet her family in a big celebration where we will be handing them some gifts as a form of appreciation. I am very happy about this. It is a very important time in my life. I am very grateful for to the Lord for keeping us together until this time and giving us the grace to wait. I am very grateful. Malebogo Sehemo is a very wonderful lady. I can without a doubt say that I have never met anyone like her and I have never loved anyone like I love her. She is a gift from the Lord. She is patient with me and she is very humble and she always stands by me and she speaks the truth gently to me. This may seem like an exaggeration but it is not she is truly a beauty both inside and outside. She loves ...

RISK

Yesterday during my devotional time, the Lord led me to Matthew 25:15. The interesting thing about this particular verse is that after the Master gave the guys the talents, He left straightaway (KJV). I always missed the straightaway part. Yesterday it seemed to me that it was rather unfair for the Lord not to tell them what to do with the talents He gave them. I know the Lord as the Lord who gives us direction as to how we must use whatever He gave us. This is why this verse seemed strange to me. It even became more unfair to me that when He came back He required more from the guys and yet He did not tell the guys what they should do. The answer from the Lord was quite simple when I asked Him. He said there are people around us who tell us what do to with our talents because He has sent them. Sometimes we fear to take Godly advice because of preconcieved ideas. sometimes we fail to take oppotunities that the Lord has placed before us because we just do not trust anyone. we are a...

It’s ok for someone to be better than you.

There is a big problem that we have as human beings. We always want to be the best. We always want to be the most loved, the most appreciated, the most important, the most listened to, the best speaker, the most focused, the most compassionate, the one to be followed, the one who has answers to everything, the list goes on and on. From my own experience I have realized that there will always be someone better. There will always be someone who does things better than you and me. The question we should be asking ourselves is “what does God say about us?” regardless of how your co-workers are better treated than you by your boss, or your brothers and sisters are better treated by your family and friends, e.t.c. Listen I had to learn this lesson also and the spirit behind it had to be dealt with. It is pure bondage. If we are doing our best in what God has in store for us let us not be concerned about the next person. Praise God when they progress along. God sees everything and He alw...

Fear and Respect

I have been meditating on these two words for a while. I have come to realize that there is a big difference between fear and respect. Some people say they respect their spouses, parents, ladies and guys, boys and girls, friends, boy friends and girlfriends, family and bosses while in actual fact they fear them. I am saying this from my own experience. The only fear we should have is the fear of God. Any other fear is contrary to the will of God and it will definitely take us out of the path that he has intended for us. We must respect other people but we must not fear them. Fear brings a lot of things like deceit and flattery. In the work place and in our homes, there must not be fear of man. It must only be the fear of God and respect. On the other end we cannot force anyone to respect us. Remember we gave our rights to the Lord when we gave our lives to Him including the right to be respected. We should be very humbled and grateful when people respect us. Please look into this matte...
