Friendships are gifts




 Have you ever looked at a friend or even a family member of yours and be like, "thank God you are in my life" and the person feels the same way too. 

There is a way God brings people into our lives. 

Not all relationships happen by accident, some were arranged by God for specific purposes. He looked at us, he assessed our needs and then he placed people around us that would meet those specific needs. Appreciate someone you know is a blessing from God today.


You didn't meet the people in your life by mistake and the people you would be meeting in the future  would not be by mistake. 
Do not be quick to push people away because you feel they are not giving you the world definition of value like money, connections, etc. While all of those things are good and God also provides people in our life that can give them to us, your friends might be giving you peace, making you smile and laugh when you are sad, hearing you talk about stuff that makes you happy, supporting your little dream that you are just starting out, seeing you in your down times when no one else notices, believing in you and reminding you not to give up on yourself and your dreams, encouraging you basically, giving you great advice, tolerating that side of you that you know no ordinary person would and loving you regardless etc.
 All these things are also very valuable. There is no friend that can love you as much as God does but God knows that we would also need people who can  provide some certain things for us that is why specific people are in our lives today, VALUE THEM!!!, don't wait until they are no longer there.


"And there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.
           Proverbs 18:24

If there is one thing I know, it is everybody deserves to be loved regardless of their background, race, age qualifications etc. The man in the Palace need to be shown love as much as the man on the street. Don't Love people just because of the benefits that you can get from them alone. Even if they cannot offer you anything still love. In Love there is compassion, hope, patience, understanding, kindness, forgiveness, peace, no strife, no envy, no jealousy no competition but like Jesus, there is willingness to bear the burden of other people and share in their joy. For people in romantic relationships, love is not infatuation and lust, they are both self seeking but it is an intentional decision to choose someone regardless of the situation. Note that you don't have to be friends or close with someone to love them, as a matter of fact some people just call thems...

God has been speaking.

  There is a song titled Voice of God by Dante bowe. What I love most about the song is it makes me understand that God must not necessarily speak to us in a very complex way like he did to the Father's of faith in the Bible (e g Abraham, Moses etc.), he can talk through the simplest thing. We might be very confused about something and then an idea just comes into our mind and we know immediately that it was God because of the light and peace that comes with the thought. God speaks, the Holy spirit still ministers but if you allow the voice of what the world is saying to be to louder, how are you going to hear him? When I say the voice of the world, I mean the voice of social media, of friends, of foes, and sometimes the negative voice in your head that is too loud. Tune them down, take time of social media, infact take time off listening to sermons, be quiet and still either reading your Bible or basically doing nothing but just listening to God speak through you. You have to get ...
