*Mr Segun* arrives church 5mins after Sunday school...
Elder *Odukoya* noticed him but didn't ask till after service...
Immediately after the brethren said the grace, he walked up to brother *Segun* and said...
Brother *Segun* how far, you came to church late today and I didn't even see your kids in church, what happened?
Ahhh elder *Odukoya* it's well ooo
No no bro *Segun* don't tell me it's well when it's not well, what happened? Why were you late to church and your family didn't even come?
OK elder, I have serious financial challenges, we didn't even eat throughout yesterday cos there's nothing at home...
I left house around 7am trekking to church, I trekked for 2hrs to arrive here around 9am after the🥏 Sunday school...
After explaining in tears, elder *Odukoya* held his shoulder and says, it's well like you said my brother, the Lord will surely provide...
He continues his sermon, there are too many others who once passed through same thing, their situation has changed now, this government of our country is very hard my brother...
He walks away, he has not less than 5000 naira in his pocket...
At home they have one bag of rice they just opened and over 45 tubers of yam...
They have beverages and they have money saved in the bank...
Bro *Segun* trekked back home, sweating and hungry to meet his hungry wife and kids...
Brethren the last time I checked, it's well is not an ingredient for cooking soup...
The Lord will provide is not a paint of rice...
and can not refill gas cylinder at home...
Yet we call ourselves the image of God...
We forgot that God who we claim to be his image is love and love is giving...
What will it take you to share what you have with your brethren ?
Some of you have kids in schools that pay fees in dollars yet the man sitting close to you in church can't even send his kids to a local school in town...
If only the early church in acts of the apostles will be given the opportunity to watch us for five minutes, they will weep because this is no more the foundation they laid...
Our love for money has over shadowed our love for our fellow human...
It seems the part of the Bible which says if you can't love your brother you see, how can you love God you can't see has been deleted from our bibles ...
Oh that our hearts will be revived to love and show love again...
The death in church today would have reduced...
If only we can be like Jesus and stop deceiving ourselves...
If only we can show mercy ...
If only we can show love today and not tell love...
Ponder on these things...
God is love and love is giving.
Let us reduce depression
Let us rescue each other
Let us reduce the death of our brethren especially youths who find it difficult to cope.
Don't ever go to sleep without checking on family and friends, feed somebody today, help someone today, be like Christ, be a real Christian.
God bless you is an act of love, show it in action not with your lips.
Youths no matter what happens SUICIDE IS NOT AN OPTION. Talk to someone today
When you see them over excited for nothing, depressed or he or she starts keeping to him or herself pls don't walk away, he or she has lost it.
By this shall all [men] know that you are My disciples, if you love one another [if you keep on showing love among yourselves]. *John 13:35*
*Let's change our orientation by helping each other.*
Love leads
