Worth Noting:
- When you are listening to music you should go ahead and ask yourself other than beats what does the words used mean, what message the song has for you. Do not just dance to it and never bother to understand its purpose.
- Many books have been authored. You must have seen several of them, have you taken interest to know the content in them and the reason why they were written? You should see the writer as a messenger sent to convey the message put in him so regardless of your opinion about him you need to bother to know what information he is trying to pass across as it could be beneficial to you.
God takes away the minds of poets, and uses them as his ministers, as he also uses diviners and holy prophets, in order that we who hear them may know them to be speaking not of themselves who utter these priceless words in a state of unconsciousness, but that God himself is the speaker, and that through them he is conversing with us……….β¦β¦.. Socrates.
Advocating for the need to help those who are in need Jesus taught using the parable of the sheep and goats.
In the bible book of Mathew chapter 25 verses 35-40 it reads for I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.β
βThen the righteous will answer him, βLord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in or needing clothes and clothe you?
When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you? βThe King will reply, βTruly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.β
Borrowing words from Genesis 1:27 where it reads so God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them we can say the other person you see or hear about is a creature of God in actual fact he is an image of God so whenever you help him you help God.
As men we have our differences in looks and works that show how diverse our creator is. The unique manner you see other people looking is the same they see you. There is great need for you to value them every time as this will cultivate a culture of appreciation. This will help you to create an environment which is conducive for both you as well as others.
When you hear the birds sing, dogs bark and see the antelopes run, lions pounce and doves fly you should not take it as normal rather it is God at work through all these animals showing how diverse he is.
In the book of Samuel we read of Hannah praying for a child when God answered her it was through partnership with his husband that she conceived and bore a son called Samuel. Suppose she did not have any union with a man and just prayed for a child, it could have been uphill task for her so much as we pray and our prayers are heard those who are sent to us to deliver our requests should be seen as God working through them rather than rejecting them then claiming to be waiting for miracles.

When you hear small kids talking or trying to talk to you and you are not in hurry do not just ignore them just lend your ears to them perhaps they have a word of advice, hope or correction for you.
In my thinking God is beyond my understanding, his manifestations are experienced each and every minute including while asleep as that is a period where a man gets unconscious and fail to know whether he will wake up or not so waking up is a miracle. It is God in action we need to appreciate him for having protected us during the sleep and also waking us up.
In our dreams we should think of God speaking to us. Many are times we sleep and dreams about issues we have never imagined in such cases we should know that it is a certain message that is being passed to us by our creator.
Poets are important people as they voice their concerns we need to appreciate the message that they deliver to us.
Winds blowing, sun shining and rain falling are all manifestations of what the creator and controller want the universe to look like. We need to see them as a sign of God communicating to us.
