This message struck me and it would be nice to relay it to everyone, in my own words. It is the key to all the troubles we are experiencing in the world right now. If we understand this, then it makes living our life easier and better.

Life is meant to be lived not just for you but for others. We are to spread the goodness we have received to others. Having better conscience and a heart that never forgets help in this case. Life is not all about you and you need to live with the end in mind and sight. We need to know the end of a matter before we dabble into it. Let us live our lives with eternity in mind. This world is temporary and we should never forget that.

It is somewhat of a concern when people take life too serious. You see lot of people fight over things they could have naturally let go. You see them allowing a situation spiral out of control when they could have just let it go. We take things too serious and that is because we sometimes forget that life is not the end, but a means to an end. Eternity is the end and we need to live accordingly and with better understanding of this truth.

Don't take life too serious because you will never get out of it alive.

Why sweat over things when you know it isn't permanent? You see a typical example with out political circle. To them it is a do or die affair. They would rather shed blood to have them take the seat of power. They do abominable things just because they want a taste of power, forgetting life will pass away one day and whatever you have done is what will speak for you.

We need to be intentional about our living. We need to spread the goodness of our fragrance and not our bad odour. When we live with eternity in mind, we would do things carefully. Peace and unity will be the hall mark and goodness of heart would naturally spring forth.

Thank you for your time.

The Pauline Epistle, Philippians, is a great book in the Bible to read to support the idea of how we must consider others more significant than ourselves. However, I personally struggle with the question of what is the best way to help others when my husband and I already so heavily depend on our parents.

Thank you for this amazing comment and i love it.

Helping others doesn't have to involve money alone. When you give ear amd attention to another, when you show others the way, when you point them in the right direction, when you connect them, when you give a shoulder for them to lean on, that's help. It involves a huge level of sacrifice in any capacity, because we have our issues to contend with, yet we need to help another.

Many people don't actually need money, they just need someone to listen to them and advice them. For those who require money, nothing is too small. You don't have to give them everything they asked, if you can't afford it. Every little bit helps and don't forget that, giving is never without sacrifice.
