LITTLE IS MUCH WHEN GOD IS IN IT BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA


LITTLE IS MUCH WHEN GOD IS IN IT 

BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

Reflection:

Let me tell you a short story! 
I remembered how I always wished to have some things. Each time I had any of them, I press for more. I be like, if this one can also come, then I am ready for the task. Let me shock you, each time any of those things surfaced, I began to see press more without utilizing the one at hand.  

Brother, why do you keep waiting to do a big thing for God? What have you been doing with what he has committed into your hands? 
That thing you call little is much when God is in it. 

Stop looking elsewhere for enormous tasks when you are a failure over the little in your care. 
You see an opportunity to talk to one person, but you see it as a little task. You are waiting for five thousand people you will talk to and share the gospel with. 
That act of yours should be questioned. 

Stop waiting for big assignments ma, it will not come if you consider what you are doing now to be little. 
How faithful you are to that little thing, determines if you will be chosen for a bigger one. 

Are you called to just intercede on behalf of others? please don't see it as a little thing. Be faithful! 
It is not how much, but how well. 
At the end, it won't matter how much had been committed into your trusts but how faithful you were. 

Don't seek to be known! 
Don't seek fame! 
Don't seek men's applause and approval! 
Don't envy another's person assignment, know your assignment too. 
You are shaped for a different assignment. 
Stay within your confinement! 
Be faithful to that field of yours. 

In the harvest field now ripened
There’s a work for all to do;
Hark! the voice of God is calling,
To the harvest calling you.

Song :
Refrain:
Little is much when God is in it!
Labor not for wealth or fame;
There’s a crown, and you can win it,
If you go in Jesus’ name.


In the mad rush of the broad way,
In the hurry and the strife,
Tell of Jesus’ love and mercy,
Give to them the Word of Life.


Does the place you’re called to labor
Seem so small and little known?
It is great if God is in it,
And He’ll not forget His own.


Are you laid aside from service,
Body worn from toil and care?
You can still be in the battle,
In the sacred place of prayer.


When the conflict here is ended
And our race on earth is run,
He will say, if we are faithful,
“Welcome home, My child—well done!”

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE Okay, before you go on, I am sending a big hug to you if you are a rape victim. I know it's not easy forgetting the ugly incidence but I want to tell you to let go of the past. I am not here to point accusing finger at you for whatever happened in the past. The past is past. Let your new you emerge. Come to love yourself. Forgive yourself. Forgive that person who defiled you. Let God wrap you in His arms.  Majority of rape incidence happens because of the carelessness on the part of the lady. A lady who's frequenting a guy's house in odd hours may not return the same way she came if she's not careful. We can't also overlook the fact that some guys are monsters. They are wolves in sheep's clothing. They may appear harmless but they are like serpents. May God arrests their hearts.   One day Dinah, Leah's daughter, went to visit some of the young women who lived in the area. But when the local prince, Shechem son of ...

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER For those who are so close to me, they will know I rarely mention my Dad. He's alive and healthy.  I grew up not knowing my Dad. I grew up not knowing what fatherly love meant. My Dad is very much alive but we are far from each other. I was around 11 years or so before he came looking for me. First of all, I am grateful to God for giving me my mum. She went through a lot raising me.  So, while I was growing up, I envied those who talked about their dad so much. I wish I could be like them. I wish I could have someone who would be able to show me love. I didn't know fatherly love not until when I met my Spiritual father in Ibadan in 2010. He received me with open arms.  For several years, I lived with hurt and hatred in my heart. I cried bitterly most times when I reminisce about so many things.  A day came when I heard God said to me"For this reason were you separated from your mother's womb, you are not accidental...

SEX DOES NOT HAPPEN BY ACCIDENT

SEX DOES NOT HAPPEN BY ACCIDENT  A whole lot of things must have been conceived  in your mind before indulging in sex.  That act you carried out was as a result of a lot of mental works that you have carried out in your mind before you finally carried it out.  Here are things to know before sex can actually happen between two people outside wedlock, rape situations excluded please.  1. Men generally, are moved by what they see. So, when a guy visits you and the next thing you do is  to expose your cleavages, wear bum shorts, with just the two of you behind closed doors, honestly speaking, that guy would have a whole lot of dirty things going on in his mind. You are inviting him either consciously or unconsciously.  2. Women generally, are turned on by sweet words spoken to them by men. Yes, we love it when we hear how amazing we are, how pretty we are. When a particular guy showers you with incessant praises, you tend to fall...
