BECAUSE OF YOU

Ever wondered why many people have still decided not to go to church and probably give their lives to Christ? The answer might simply be........BECAUSE OF YOU

'"I went to church as they invited me to, but i was surprised to see you dressed in your most holy attire and acting so seriously. Later i heard them say its testimony time and i saw you stepping out in a very happy mood and you behaved as the holiest of them all. I was confused and began to doubt within me if it was you or someone else. I finally decided to listen to you and i heard you give a testimony unto salvation. Immediately, i made a decision not to receive salvation if that was all about it.

 I sat in bewilderment, but i still decided to stay. i was still surprised to see you and your clique singing the praise and worship songs with a very loud voice and i could not help but wonder.
Is this what church is all about? I saw pretense and hypocrisy everywhere. I continued to think..... was it not you who clubbed all night? when did you suddenly become so holy? this your friend is the same girl who committed abortion last month and you still want me to believe you? Again, i do see you fighting with your mother and the elders in the neighborhood or am i seeing a different person?
I tried staying to the end of the service. It would have been a very wonderful service if not for the people i saw.

As for me, i read my bible and try to do what i can but i dont like going to church so as to avoid being angry with the people therein who profess a thing and then do the opposite. I dont really think i can go back to that church BECAUSE OF YOU"

Thanks for reading. God bless you!

THINK OF THIS

How good is a house if its not a home How good is a tree if it bears no fruits How good is a garden if it has no flowers How good is a clock if it cant tell the time How good is are friends if they cant care and share How good are eyes if they cant be used for sight How good are ears if they cant be used for hearing How good is a nose that cant be used for breathing How good are legs if they cant be used for locomotion How good is a mirror that cant reflect images How good is a phone that cant be used for calls How good is a heart that cant pump blood How good is a book that cant be read How good is a youth without a dream and How good if your life if you are not living for Christ Remember a life without Christ is a life in crisis written by Alice Asuquo

SLAVERY AND ETERNITY

Kidnapped and stolen from homeland Their capture was brutal and inhuman For a terrible voyage each was branded Hot coals to the skin was much dreaded Packed into hot and dark holds of slave ships Everything were they given accompanied by whips Surviving a loathsome and terrible voyage Death was an only way out of bondage Years have passed since slave trade ended Still many live in fear and some in hatred Some willfully go into worst slavery Thinking not of freedom because they move freely Unfortunately everyone is born a slave But can choose to whom he/she is enslaved Fearfully many go for evil And become slaves to the devil When oft with luxury they are blindfolded Many forget life after they are dead But unto God we are not slaves but sons Wearing crowns as bright as the sun On the day of that great morning When in beauty it shall be dawning Which gate unto you shall be open That to peace or to an oven Written by Precious Eze For Favour Bulletin

ABOUT LOVE

The cute guy came around and smiled at you, such that made your heart melt right inside of you and then he said Ï love you". The feeling was just indescribable, in fact you felt the whole world was revolving around you. He told you that you were the true definition of perfection and he couldn't live without you...   Yes, he may have loved you, but was it really love or ??? I don't think it was love because I learnt that you cant really love someone whose assets and liabilities you cant define. Ok... you looked good; your Brazillian hair, glittering dinner dress, diamond jewelleries, flawless make-up, beautiful shoes and irresistible cologne fragrance were all in tact.   He was attracted and carried away. You thought it was going to last forever...... Just after a while, he stops calling, ignores your calls, becomes too busy and gives countless excuses. It hurts, obviously true. It can actually make you feel less about yourself but here is God whispering in ...
