Few examples are:
Men: If you want to be rich, keep your blessings.
God: If you want to be blessed, bless others.
Men: If you want to be rich, keep your blessings.
God: If you want to be blessed, bless others.
“Give generously to him and do so without a grudging heart; then
because of this the LORD your God will bless you
because of this the LORD your God will bless you
in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.” Deuteronomy 15:10
Men: If anyone hurts you, do the same thing to him.
God: If anyone hurts you, pay him with good thing.
“If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat; if he is thirsty,
give him water to drink.” – Proverbs 25:21
give him water to drink.” – Proverbs 25:21
Men: A leader must exercise authority, make the most of it and rule.
God: A leader must serve.
“Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.” – Mark 10:43-44
Leadership for men is equivalent to “authority” but for God it is tantamount to “servanthood”.
It's amazing how God works in a different and unique way (very different from our ways). Sometimes we can't understand what He's doing and where He's leading us, but still He will say this: Just trust Me!
"For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD.
"As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."
Isaiah 55:8-9

May idadagdag ako:
Men: The more you give, the more you receive.
God: The more you give, the more you give!
Natutunan ko kay Pastor Rhony during REACH group training. Totoo nga naman that as you give and make giving a lifestyle, give ka na lang ng give out of love! But this can be true only if the intention is pure and godly. :)
amen! thanks myk...
Naalala ko tuloy ung verse from Deuteronomy. It says:
"You will lend to many and borrow from none."
give lang ng give...
