Lessons from Life – #103


The way a rainbow springs out of the sky
on a rainy day—that’s what it was like. It
turned out to be the Glory of
God!
(Ezekiel 1:28 – MSG Bible)

I was really down because of something I was going through and I needed a reminder of God’s love. That night as I was so in a state of despondency. I cried out to the Lord to show me a sign of His love just for me. (Knowing in my spirit that He would.) Early the next morning, I awoke and went outside. I looked up over the side of my house and saw the most beautiful double rainbow that I have ever seen in my life!

God has ways of reaching us in the most difficult times!
He reveals and expresses His renewed love so that
we are continually strengthened by
those revelations and dimensions of Him.

Lessons from Life – #102


God hates cheating in the marketplace;
    he loves it when business is aboveboard.
(Prov. 11:1 – MSG Bible)

Money.jpg

I was called to a home and completed a work for an old man today. I was very proud of myself to have finished the task. “That will be 40.00 dollars”, I said, after completing the work. He promptly reached into his wallet and handed me three crisp 20.00 dollar bills, totaling 60.00 dollars. These were the type of bills that seemed fresh from the bank…the kind that stick together. He was well into his 90s and wasn’t aware he had given me too much money. I could have easily pocketed the extra 20.00. I quickly returned the 20.00 bill to him, and said: “I may have kept this 20.00 bill one time in my life, but I am planning on seeing Jesus!”

God sees every transaction we have with others and He knows if we have been unfair in dealing with then financially. There are times when only we know our motives for estimating, charging, and figuring…and whether those motives are aboveboard. We all should practice integrity down to every single penny.
