Our Women [Poetry by @andredaniel_bb]

 

Her strength is in her hair
Feed her strength
Her smile recedes her pain
Protect her needs
If you need to be her knight
Show her why it’s worth the fight
She was made to supplement you
Not for you to stand on her shoulders
Embrace her love
Feel her pain
Uplift her

Words of Encouragement: Don’t Bank On a Long Retirement

Don’t Bank On a Long Retirement

 

The length of our days is seventy years or eighty, if we have the strength; yet their span is but trouble and sorrow,
for they quickly pass, and we fly away. Psalm 90:10 (NIV)

 

The next Words of Encouragement topic is “Don’t Bank On A Long Retirement“. With this topic we will touch on time and how it can easily be misunderstood in many different ways. We will also touch on the things to expect in that “time”. In the ways we spend our time today, can we honestly say that we are making this time count? When it is over and all the things we contributed to life, or the lack of things we’ve contributed, will it matter? Society tells us that life is short and to live it to the fullest, but what does ”live it to the fullest” really mean? Can it be measured by actions or measured in comparison to something else we have or haven’t done? What I’m asking is, how much time do you really have and what do you plan to do with it?

The Heart Has An Attitude

 

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise. Ephesians 5:15 (ESV)

 

It has been such a great opportunity to minister to you all with this series, by way of W.O.E Online Ministry. Being able to speak to the world of the savior and how we learn from others as well as the word of God is a tremendous blessing. Our mistakes help others as well as ourselves. We learn from each other if we are wise to do so. Mentorship is wisdom without the pain. We have different personalities as well as attitudes with how we handle or react to any given situation. When we have the right perspective about life, we will honor and give God the glory. When our hearts are in the right place we then take on the right attitudes.

The Heart Has An Attitude

 

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise. Ephesians 5:15 (ESV)

As we advance into our study of the heart and its attitude, we see when that which hinders is cut away, there will be a submission to the will of God and the end of stubbornness. This week we are looking at the heart of another, who’s heart was not in the right place again. We will visit the book of Acts 8:18-19 about a character named Simon. Simon had previously been a sorcerer. He heard the word preached by Philip and he believed and was baptized as the scripture has said.

“And when Simon saw that through laying on of the Apostle’s hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money. Saying, give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.” Now, Peter immediately saw that the thoughts in Simon’s heart were wrong. Bitterness is the opposite of sweetness and its an attitude of anger, hurt or resentment. All wrong actions are rooted in the attitudes of the heart. So Simon’s request was not an innocent misunderstanding. Inside he was feeling bitterness because he would no longer be the big important sorcerer. There are times it is hard to let go of past habits, ways and doings. Before, Simon had (Acts 8:9) bewitched the people of Samaria, professing out of himself  that he was true. Even though Simon made an outward profession of faith in verse 13, did he really believe? We must watch what Peter says to him in verse 21.
