Do Not Trivialize Christianity by R. E. Smith

Don't Trivialize the Christian  Journey . Nothing about being a devoted Christian is easy. It is destined that as Christians we endure longsuffering and as we suffer we grow in faith because our Lord and God will protect us and provide for our needs daily. Galatians 5:22  tells us “the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith.” So the next time we stop to point finger or judge. Ask yourself, am I the perfect Christian? better yet as yourself, am I a Christian? Do i understand what it means to become a Christian? Let us not cast judgment or pretend as if being a Christian is easy. It is one of the most difficult life discussions to make knowing that you will be tempted & tried daily. However, the rewards of heaven and the fruits of the spirit makes it all worth it. So dedicated yourself have faith and you will grow everyday.  Psalm 119:103 Tells us " How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth". Eve

  Achievement is a word we all like to hear in the same sentence with our names. It is a means of describing our hard work and dedication to a specific task or set of tasks over time. Many people spend most of their lives trying to achieve that ultimate goal. Ambition is good but have you ever stopped to think about where that passion comes from? That gift and drive of wanting to become, that intrinsic motivation? No Mountian Too High Philippians 4:13 is not just a catchphrase or something to resight when you are feeling demotivated or want an inner dose of adrenaline. It is the one clear truth that acknowledges that despite our abilities there isn't much we can do without putting GOD first. With him in our lives, we can hike to the top of any mountain and though the route to get to the top is different for each person the result is a lifetime achievement of knowing that with GOD all things are possible. Just Ask Many times we believe that we can do things of our own accord and

  Heavenly Supplements I s your storeroom full?  Think about the question for a moment then answer it. From the moment we were born, we began to walk a path of trust and commitment we relied on our parents specifically our mothers to look after our needs. She was entrusted to us, committed to her task to raise us the best way she possibly can. Helpless, innocent, and hopeless we were without knowledge of this world and what exists. Hence we wait patiently for milk, nutrient, and formula. As we are now told we should desire the sincere milk of GOD 1st Peter 2:2 states" We must crave spiritual milk so that by it we will grow in his salvation" . As we grew older our dreams became a part of our daily routine as we studied and work tirelessly to achieve the objective of wanting to becoming successful and living a comfortable life by generating wealth that can be used to satisfy our needs and wants.  This will allow us to become independent of our parents and others.

Schools are safe zones UNESCO's mission "is to contribute to the building of peace, the eradication of poverty, sustainable development, and intercultural dialogue through education, the sciences, culture, communication, and information". The main point here is through Education but might I ask how can learning take place in an environment where educators are muzzled and restricted to the point where they are unable to defend their basic Human Rights? The rights have been taken away from teachers in recent years and now we are tasting the bitter medicine of a society that has little to no regard for educators. Teachers have no right to exercise discipline but yet still they are called to teach. How can a teacher be effective and efficient in this current education climate in which they are being bullied and abused physically and emotionally?
