DROP THE BONE A dog has taught me an important lesson in this encounter. I was in my vehicle commuting from home to my daily errands driven by my driver. The vehicle was speeding at about 80kms per hour. Suddenly, I saw a dog running so fast to cross the road. I was frightened that the vehicle would overrun the dog. I was praying that the dog would increase its speed and cross the road safely. The vehicle was fast approaching the dog. Then, I saw the dog suddenly increase its speed and was able to cross the road successfully. Pheew, I sighed, thanking God it wasn’t hit by the vehicle. But, there is something I noticed that fell off before the dog suddenly increased its speed. I asked my driver, could you please reverse. I need to see what fell off. When I saw what fell off, one of the greatest lessons sunk into my thick skull. The dog let go of the BONE it was carrying to enjoy peacefully at a quiet environment. It was that SIMPLE , it reached a point where the dog had to let go of th...

WHAT IS HOLDING YOU....  One day, a man decided to travel by ship with his friends. While in the middle of their journey, the boat began to sink. Everyone tried to escape by swimming but it was all in vain.  All drowned except this man who succeeded in clinging to a floating object. With the effect of strong winds, the object took him very far, to a small island where there were no men or animals, just a few insects. With the sweat of his brow, he managed to build a small box entirely made of straw.  He stayed there for several days eating fruits and began to get used to his new life of suffering  (even if he did not get used to it). He eventually began to lose all hope of seeing his family again any day. Every night he lit a fire in front of his house to warm himself. One evening, as usual, he lit the fire. He stayed there for a long time until he dozed off. Late in the night, he was awakened by an overwhelming heat: It was his straw hut that caught fire. He cried, ...

  If you take a look around you, especially in your friend circle, you would hardly find someone involved with real estate business. Most youngsters, and for that matter even middle aged men and women, put forward flimsy and untenable arguments why they stay away from real estate investing. Of course they are ready or have already bought a home for their families but this is the most that they are willing to dabble in the world of real estate. Ask these people in detail the real reasons why they seem to be afraid of investing in real estate, and they would come up with ridiculous answers. These answers are unjustifiable and resulting from their own fears and insecurities rather than any genuine reasons. If you become frigid at the mere thought of buying a property for the purpose of investment it is time to wake up and do some rethinking? Despite having read so much about real estate and knowing how people are making fortunes with this profession, how can you still behave like a ch...

  MANY ASK ME WHY ARE YOU EVER SMILING AND FULL OF ENERGY? My Answer is, I command my morning. HOW? 1. PRAYER  Pray specific passages. Scriptural prayers as well as a number of Psalms lend themselves well to this purpose. a) Let every evil spirit seeking to frustrate my day and my assignment be thwarted. In the name of Jesus, amen. b) Father, I anticipate the good things You have prepared for me today. Bring complete order to my day as I seek You first and make Your will my priority.
