Almost Dead

This is my nephew now after his first birthday. Actually this baby was born premature. He was 7 months old when he was born I thought he wasn’t able to make it because of his bad condition but because of God’s help he did. Right after his birth, I saw him like a helpless newborn puppy because his skin was transparent and I can even see his heart beating through his skin. Because of his condition, he stayed inside the incubator for 2 months.
His mother and grandmother called him half a million baby because they spent five hundred pesos for the incubator aside from other things. It’s amazing to see this little healthy baby fat boy running and climbing around the house now because he was so little and helpless before and now look at him, his healthy and cute isn’t he?

Time is Gold?

Because of hectic schedule and economic crisis that that we are facing today, I’d notice that many people are having a hard time to give or spent even a single minute of their precious time to praise and give thanks to god. Is this true to you? If yes, then you need to examine yourself.

Let me share with you what is written in the Bible book of Ephesians chapter five verse fifteen up to seventeen (5:15-17). “So keep strict watch that how you walk is not unwise persons, buying the opportune time for your selves because the days are wicked. On this account cease becoming unreasonable but go on perceiving what the will of Jehovah God is”.

Our busy lives place many demands on us. At times it may be a struggle for us to meet all of our obligations. Yet, we need to keep in mind that life is a gift we have received from God. So it is proper and wise then to spend time with our heavenly father sometimes in spite our hectic schedule.

How much of our time and energy does god expect us to devote to him? The Bible’s reasonable answer is encouraging. And it contains a warm invitation: “Draw close to God and he will Draw close to you” (James 4:8).
