Arrogance of humility

      Arrogance of humility is that God looks on the heart. People who trust themselves for their righteousness and at the same time , viewing others with contempt by thinking they are better than them. Charles Spurgeon said;      "When asked what is more important; 'Praying or Reading the Bible?'      I ask, 'What is more important: Breathing In or Breathing out?' Luke 18:9-17     And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others:     Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican.     The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican.     I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.     And the publican, standing afa...

Make Others Feel Valued Often

           Making someone feel valued “is the best way” to improve their mood. Today, I'm sharing some tools that can help you “go boost” someone's mood everyday: “Listen actively” to what the person says, and “show genuine” interest. Here are several ways to “show someone” that you “see them” and are really listening to what they are saying: 1.

We are all in "that line" and never know when it will be us. We can not move to the back of the line or step out or ask someone to take our place. While we wait, we can not avoid this line. You must make moments, priorities, and time count. Make your gifts know to a nobody, so they feel like somebody. Make your voice heard and small things big. Make someone smile and change they way they feel. Make up and create peace. Ensure to tell your family, friends and people they are loved and to have no regrets. In the end, when the your heart beats no more, the blood in your veins moves no more and returns to the sea, and the earth in your bones returns to ashes, then you will remember, it is you who belong to the land and not the land belonging to you. Ensure you are ready in that moment, because,“Every second someone leaves this world,” and the next one, just might be you. Photo by: Logan Zillmer
