Miss Judgement

      A couple had been married for several years without a child.
For the purpose of companionship, they bought a Rottweiler
puppy, named it Hatchi and loved her like a child. The dog
had access to all the rooms in the house. The puppy grew to
become a large, beautiful dog and had on several occasions
saved d couples from robbery. Hatchi was always faithful,
loyal and defended its owners against any danger.
Seven years later, the couple was blessed to have the long-
awaited son. They were very happy with their new son and
decreased the
attention they had been giving the dog. Hatchi felt neglected
and began to get jealous
of the baby.
One day the couple left the baby sleeping peacefully in his
cradle and went to
the terrace to prepare a roast. They were shocked as they
were heading
to the nursery and saw Hatchi in the hallway with a bloody
mouth, wagging its tail. The dog's owner thought the worst,
pulled out a weapon and immediately killed the dog. Rushed
to the baby's room and found a beheaded snake close to the
baby. The owner begins to mourn and exclaims I killed my
faithful dog!
How often have we misjudged people without finding out
facts.
The next time we are tempted to judge and condemn anyone
remember the story of a faithful dog Hatchi.

When Helping is not Helping

Having the desire to help others is the calling that brings many into the “helping professions.” For others, it is the day to day service that we do for our families, children and others we work for/or/with. There is a fine line however when helping is not really helping, but rather a barrier that leads to stagnation or worse yet, fosters an unhealthy dependence. Indicators of when helping is NOT helping: 1. When the help we provide is not accepted by others The term I’ve used for years is when helping leads to “help rejecting complainers.” When our helping leads others to excuse themselves of embracing the help, then rejecting it, or avoiding it. This is not a judgment of our help or our intent, but of others’ readiness to change. They may simply not see the same way as you do. They may not value the same things. 2. When the help leads others to make the same poor decisions Any change effort has to be embraced as well as given. It is hard to un...

WHERE SHALL WE GO?

When we can no longer differentiate a church from a social gathering, and all what we do in church is to just have fun. When we can’t differentiate a choir from a harlot, and an usher is not different from a waiter. When the church is no more conducive where shall we go? When worship session in a church is just like a disco night and we cant differentiate a pastor from a comedian. When salvation message is no longer the order of the day but prosperity and entertainment message is now the core course. When the church is no more conducive where shall we go? When prayer warrior now have to go to tongue- speaking school for utterances, and deliverance and healing session is now like MTH 201 to be taught and learned. When pastor have to pause for members to clap and shout during sermon in enthusiasm, and all what we now gain from preaching is now new vocabulary and word usage. When the church is no more conducive where shall we go? When the church of God is now...

The Most complex problem

Many hundreds of years ago in a small Italian town, a merchant had the misfortune of owing a large sum of money to the moneylender. The moneylender, who was old and ugly, fancied the merchant’s beautiful daughter so he proposed a bargain. He said he would forgo the merchant’s debt if he could marry the daughter. Both the merchant and his daughter were horrified by the proposal. The moneylender told them that he would put a black pebble and a white pebble into an empty bag. The girl would then have to pick one pebble from the bag.If she picked the black pebble, she would become the moneylender’s wife and her father’s debt would be forgiven. If she picked the white pebble she need not marry him and her father’s debt would still be forgiven. But if she refused to pick a pebble, her father would be thrown into jail. They were standing on a pebble strewn path in the merchant’s garden. As they talked, the moneylender bent over to pick up ...
