Sum of your choices

You are the sum of your choices. Who you are now are the results of the choices you have made in the past. We have many people in this world going around blaming everyone and everything for the situations they find themselves in currently. These people are afraid of being accountable. The truth is no one is responsible for your life, you alone are responsible and you alone will be held accountable.  But you say Ric, that's not true, my parents did this and that and those things make me who I am now. False, while parents do have great influence on their children, your parents are not responsible for your choices and for who you have become.

Are your parents responsible for who you are today 🤔? No.While your parents influenced you greatly, they are not responsible for who you are today. Look at the life of your parents and ask yourself is my life the same ? The truth is you choose which part of your parents' teaching you wanted to follow and which part you wanted to reject. You are not like your parents because you made choices that were different from your parents. You can't blame your parents for who you are today. They influenced you, play a part in your development but you alone are responsible for where you are today.

In prisons you will find many people in there blaming others for being incarcerated.  But its a lie. No one can force you to commit crimes, they can influence you but the choice is yours. Someone can offer you money to kill someone but the choice is yours. Someone can sweet talk you into committing fraud, but the choice is yours. A gang can intimidate you into joining them, but the choice is yours. No one can make you do anything that you don't want to do.
You made the choices that resulted in who you are today. You are the sum of your choices for good or evil.

God has giving us two choices in life, good or evil. Everyday we wake up we are making choices for good or evil. Good choices today will lead to good results tomorrow, evil choices today will lead to evil results tomorrow.  You reap what you sow. You are responsible for your present situation and your future state. The Devil is not to be blame for the decision you have made. The idea of the Devil made me do it will not stand in the judgment of God. Adam and Eve tried it and it did not work because each person is a moral agent, solely responsible for the choices we make 


So friends, if you want a better tomorrow, start making good choices today. If you want eternal life with Jesus, start making good choices today. By praying today, it will be easier to pray tomorrow, by seeking the Lord Jesus today, you will draw closer to Him tomorrow. By working with Christ today, you will be a better worker tomorrow. By being kind today you will get a kinder person tomorrow. By doing what is right in the eyes of the Lord today, you will be stronger to do right tomorrow. You are the sum of your choices. Choose the good, hate the evil.
Do what's right and you will have life forever more 

Galatians 6:7

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

The idolatry of marriage: a recipe for disaster

 People are suffering, loneliness is rampant in the land. Many people in the world look to marriage as a savior, an institution that will rescue them from their loneliness. They think finally i will have someone I can call mine, someone who will love me with all their hearts until death do us apart 🤗. But the increasing divorce rates tell a different story. A story of marriage being difficult, a story of many married people being miserable , lonely , bitter and see divorce as a viable option to escape the misery they find themselves in. A story of many preferring to live together instead of getting married.  Marriage has become a scary thing in the land. Marriage for many has become synonymous with losing half your wealth and your children. But why has marriage become so destructive to many ? Why has something as beautiful as marriage become such a terror to many 🤔? It is because marriage has become an idol to many. Marriage has become a god to many in the church and in the world. Sa

The difficulties of love

 Love is a beautiful thing. Love makes life worth living. Love is best thing in the universe because God is love 😍. We all want love, we all want to be loved and many of us want someone to love. Love is very precious indeed. We sing about love, we write about it and we make movies about it. And yet love is the most difficult thing to find in this earth. It is easier to find diamonds and gold than to find true love. Easier maybe to find the lost city of Atlantis than to find genuine love. Many people have simply given up on love. They see the idea of loving and having someone to love them as fables for unwise and inexperienced children. Love is rare indeed. Why is it so hard to love or find love 🤔? The easiest answer is because we are imperfect. Being imperfect means we are broken, unable to perform the function we were made to do. Come with me on a journey of the difficulties of love. Imagine you meet someone, a man, a woman, the " love of your life." The woman is beautiful

What do you bring to the table ?

 Man and woman are both made in the image of God.  Man and woman are both valuable and equal in worth but are not the same.I repeat, man and woman are not the same. There is an attempt in our culture to make man and woman the same, it's nothing but a Satanic assault to destroy the beauty of God's creation . Man and woman are different for a reason. Each reveal different qualities of the Godhead. When a man and woman come together in the way of God, real beauty will be revealed. Man and woman offer different things in a relationship. What do you bring to the table 🤔?  Is the question many are asking when it comes to choosing a spouse . According to the Bible the man is to provide for the woman and the woman is to be a help meet to the man. A help meet is a perfect match for someone. The woman is to match her husband,  completing him, making him stronger, being strong where he is weak . The man is supposed to provide financially, security,  stability. The man is to provid
