Life's biggest treasure

 If I was to ask you what is the biggest treasure in life, what would say it is ? Would you say diamonds, gold, money ??

A piece of land, a great job ?

What do you consider the greatest treasure in life 🤔?  An interesting thing in this life is we buy the things that are least important while the things that are truly important are free of charge.  The greatest treasure in this life is free of charge! The greatest treasure in this life is relationship. 

Relationships are the most important thing in life because people are the most important things in this world. America has deceived us into making value things more than people and as a result we have become miserable wrecks. Some people are so busy chasing money that all their relationships collapse. They work so many hours that they have no time for anyone else in their lives. But guess what ! The job you are killing yourself for will fire you in a heartbeat if you no longer fit their needs. The job you killing yourself for will let you go quick if you have some serious illness 🤒. Many of us have the wrong priority .

While work is important and has its place in life, working is not the goal of life. To make working your goal in life is to become a slave to materialism,  a slave to inanimate things. The goal of life is not to work but to develop, enjoy and maintain relationships. The first goal of life is to develop relationship with the Lord,  your Creator. For it is in having an intimate and true relationship with God that life become meaningful and we understand our purpose. Without a relationship with God, life become a burden,  a struggle for survival, a quest for the supremacy. Find the biggest treasure in life, develop a relationship with God.

The second most important treasure in life is each other. Diamonds has a price in currency, gold has a price in currency, but what is the price of a human life 🤔? The price of a human life is the blood of the Son of God 😮! A human life is infinitely priceless and building relationships with other people is infinitely priceless.  I heard a saying one time, someone said, " when you die people cry and say they wish you could come back to life, but while you were alived, they ignored you." Many of us are like that, we give no value to those around us. In our pursuit of selfish goals, pursuit of success we ignore what is true success, having healthy relationships. 

True success is not how much money you have in your bank account, but being able to have a relationship with God who sustain all things. True success is coming home to a loving spouse 👰🏾🤵🏾. True success is having relationships with your family, having friends you can rely on. True success is seeing the people you work with as family and seek to develop genuine relationships with them. True success is investing in each other, getting to know each other, learning to enjoy and appreciate each other. True success is to love and to be loved .

Many people have plenty money but are miserable and lonely. What's the need of having all this money if there is no one you can enjoy it with, no one you can help with it ? What's the need of having all this money if there is no one you can trust ? You can keep your money, give me God . Give me someone I can love and someone who will love me. Many of us are greedy chasing after wealth because we lack the true treasure, the true wealth in life, relationships. Friends, don't let society deceive you, work on develop a healthy relationship with God, work on develop a healthy relationship with your spouse, your family, your friends and whoever God place in your life. 

When you are sick, its not money who will be by your hospital bed, comforting you, but those whom you have loved and loved you. In heaven, money will not be of used there, but relationships will remain. Friends, never put any lifeless things or man made things over relationships. Invest in your relationship with God,  invest in your relationship with each other and you will a rich person, having treasures that cannot be bought. One can buy many things, but one two things we can't buy is heaven, and love. Love cannot be bought, love is the reward of investing in people, investing on relationships. The biggest treasure in life is relationship, to invest in them is to be truly rich.  Do not let your job take time away from your family, your family is priceless .

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
