March 23-28 2025 Devotion.


Saturday 28/03, Psalms 18,

Friday 27/03/2025; Ruth 1;15-17, Ruth 2,11, Ruth 3, Ruth 4;22

Wednesday,March 25th; Mark 10:15 says:

**"Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it."** (NIV)

### Lessons We Can Learn:

1. **Humility and Dependence on God**  

   - Children are naturally dependent on others for their needs. This verse teaches us to approach God with the same humility and dependence, recognizing that we cannot earn or sustain the kingdom of God through our own efforts.

2. **Faith and Simplicity**  

   - Children often exhibit simple, trusting faith. They believe without overthinking or skepticism. Jesus encourages us to have a similar childlike faith when it comes to trusting in God's promises and His Word.

3. **Openness and Receptiveness**  

   - Children are open to learning and receiving new things. As followers of Christ, we are called to be open to receiving God's grace, truth, and direction without resistance or pride.

4. **Letting Go of Pride and Self-Sufficiency**  

   - Adults often struggle with pride, self-reliance, and the need to prove their worth. This verse reminds us to let go of these attitudes and instead rely fully on God's mercy and love.

5. **Entering the Kingdom of God is About Grace, Not Works**  

   - The "childlike" attitude emphasizes that entering the kingdom of God is not about our achievements, status, or works, but about receiving God's gift with a humble and open heart.

6. **Trust in God's Authority**  

   - Just as children trust those in authority over them, Jesus invites us to trust in God's authority and sovereignty, knowing that He has our best interests at heart.

Part I:Son..Daddy Loves You.

Image
Son, When I was a young boy,before teenage,there were things I missed doing and enjoying,but as a statement goes,what you don't know doesn't hurt you.I  didn't know what I missed until I got a chance to be a little bit older  and realized,"That must have been a fun and adventurous activity". Well,I enjoyed the freedom of doing anything I wanted to do as long as I wasn't going to bring trouble to the parents.I liked this.Unfortunately there wasn't exposure to do much,as I can see now and long for,if I had a chance.I blame no one for this,but I have resolved to give the best to you. It's a pity to see how many rushed into starting families and they were not able to sustain them. Their end up causing pains to innocent children via divorce,separations and all manner of violence. I want the best environment for you,one that will expose you and help you explore all you potential As I wrote down this thoughts,I hadn't met your mum,I was still ...

Gentlemen Need this...Ladies Require too.

Sometimes back the concept of tall,dark,rough and handsome was very popular among ladies,whereas the figure eight was the,'wa-wa-wa' among men.It was a narrow perspective towards hooking up with ones partner but times have changed.The celebrities were hailed and everyone wished they were their fiance',but we all know how their  lives are behind the scenes and we dread it.Men were the providers of the house,but we live in a world where your woman could be earning more than you and retrenchment is a common scenario.Emphasis on equality places us almost on the same level. The enormous question is where has the focus shifted too? Young informed people are no longer viewing life from a 1D perspective but rather,in fact,they are only limited by 3D,they could dissect their partners to-be even further.When we realize that life has more than what we can see and feel,we get critical and approach it from a  wider angle.The earlier we realize this the better. So what are we sup...

Goodbye Employment

Image
There comes a time when you have to make a choice between the ideal reality and the real reality. Every day we make  choices that will make us who we will be tomorrow.In fact our today is as a result of our yesterday choices and it goes without saying that our tomorrow will be as a result of today's choices. Some times back in my 3rd year of study in Campus my room mate asked me why I'm studying.Without much thinking I told him,'I'm studying to make myself unemployable'.I hadn't understood what's all the fuss over with employment but I can now guess a few things being faced with such a situation of whether to look for a job or not.Employment is secure because at the end of the month one is assured of a salary to foot off the bills.Job gives one a higher social status.It also offers a career growth. Having gone through the curriculum,one is faced with several alternatives;Get into trying their hand in business by applying the skills they learnt,Get a j...
