    It is easier to be a freeloader. Easier to be a leech. It is easier to relax in the embracing arms of The Average. Easier, but not better. Easier but not more significant. Easier but not more fulfilling. God has called you to a life of purpose.

    Don't let anyone deceive you. Associating with bad people will ruin decent people. The Bible gives us a good indication about the effects of associating with what is called “bad people”. Some kind of Osmosis happens.

(New Living Translation) Don't be fooled by those who say such things, for "bad company corrupts good character.” (International Standard Version) Stop being ...read more

    God cares for the poor and oppressed; one of the most prominent themes in the Bible is our response toward the poor. It is the duty of God’s people to provide for those in need as best as we can with compassion, following the example of Nehemiah.

    Nehemiah has resisted outward attacks, but now there’s corruption within. It’s been said that, “No test of leadership is more revealing than the test of opposition” (Boice). Nehemiah wasn’t expecting opposition from his own people. The outcry of the poor reached his ...read more
