“When someone supports you, it is ingratitude to turn them into an endless tap; true gratitude honors the sacrifice behind the gift.”
“Gratitude is not just saying thank you, it is recognizing the sacrifice behind the help and refusing to treat the giver as an endless source.”
“A grateful heart remembers the sacrifice; it does not turn kindness into a habit of demand.”
“Support is often given from sacrifice, not surplus. To keep returning without restraint is to forget the cost behind the kindness.”
“Don’t turn kindness into a tap. Gratitude remembers the cost.” Gratitude is a quiet force that multiplies goodness. When we acknowledge even the smallest sacrifice, we inspire the giver to do more. If you don’t appreciate small sacrifices, don’t expect big favors tomorrow. Life has a way of drying up the hands that give when gratitude is missing.
In our street language, we say it plain: when you don’t receive a thank you, it feels like someone just stole your effort. The Yoruba adage captures it more vividly: “Good deeds without gratitude feel like robbers have carted away one’s goods.” Appreciation restores dignity to the giver and value to the act. That’s not just poetry, that’s reality. I’ll be honest with you: everyone likes to be appreciated, not worshipped or celebrated as such, just acknowledged. Most times, when people give, it is not always from abundance; it is a form of sacrifice, from a heart that wants happiness for all.

Even in the scriptures, gratitude is not optional. In the Bible, when Jesus Christ healed ten lepers, only one returned to give thanks. Jesus asked, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the other nine?” (Luke 17:17). That is a question that still echoes today. Gratitude, therefore, is both a spiritual discipline and a moral responsibility.

Gratitude is not grammar. It is character. Say thank you. Show it in how you behave. Respect the effort behind the act. Because when appreciation dies, goodwill follows it quietly.
And hear this street wisdom: The hand that is not appreciated will soon learn to stay in the pocket.
“Be wise. Be grateful. You are only wise to do it .”

Enjoy Jesus joy this season

02/12/2025

God took us into a new dimension this year, reflecting and developing the fruit of the Holy Spirit. A changed life is all God wants in us and nothing more. The exercise of developing the fruit of the Holy Spirit ultimately leads us back to one truth: we cannot do it by human strength alone. True transformation flows from a heart that depends wholly on God and desires deeply to reflect His nature. As St. Augustine said, “What we are, is God’s gift to us; what we become, is our gift to God.” When we yield to the Spirit, He forms Christ in us—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. “Walk by the Spirit” (Galatians 5:16) and “abide in Him” (John 15:5), for apart from Him, we can do nothing.

Day 31 Challenge_OBEDIENCE: No faith without obedience, no religion either. To obey is far better than sacrifice, and to harken than the fat of a ram. The chorus of the hymn, “When we walk with the Lord in the light of his word…” by JH Sammnis, is very instructive. It said, “Trust and Obey, for there is no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to Trust and Obey.”
The way to win in life is to get the instructions right and trust the wisdom of the instructor. Selah!
Will you join me today to ask the Holy Spirit for an obedient heart.

Obedience refers to true submission to another. It is a behavioral act that intends to please the superior or constituted authorities. It is also the act of compliance with an order, request, or law. Obedience is an aggregate response developed over time as we walk and relate with God and man. No wonder Paul said of Jesus in Hebrews 5:8-9. Though he were a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which he suffered; And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him. It thus occurred to me that obedience is a character trait developed through learning and exposure to experiences that induce change in one's life.
God demands obedience from all, and He attaches many blessings to it. In Job_36:11, If they obey and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity and their years in pleasure. Same way in Deuteronomy 11:26 -27 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day: Enjoying God in life is tied to following his instructions—nothing More!
The reluctance to obey is from the canal nature; it is always against God’s pathways; it intends to destroy man. Developing an obedient heart comes by agreeing with the word of God that you are dead to the flesh and alive to God in obedience to his word. You must stick with the Holy Spirit in fellowship and learning, then resolve in your heart to Obey God whatever it may cost. (End)

Day 30 Challenge: FIDELITY: We only demonstrate our warmth and truly win our world by how we live. When you say you will do a thing and you won't, you are simply teaching others (including yourself) that you cannot be trusted.
Only by fidelity in little things can true and constant love of God be distinguished from a passing fervor of spirit. (Francois de la Mothe Fenelon).

Fidelity in the context of fruits of the Holy Spirit refers to the display of accuracy, consistency, and being exact in behavior and deeds. In simple language, fidelity defines your predictability. It is associated with faithfulness, honesty, and consistency in words and actions. Can God and men vouch for you, just as God did for Job in Job_1:8 And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feared God and eschewed evil? God also vouched for Abraham in Gen_18:19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
Fidelity suggests the absence of deceit in our ways; it means that we do not produce or sell fake or inferior products; we do not keep people in the dark to take undue advantage of their ignorance in our businesses. The next quest is what am I known for? can the unbelieving world vouch for my integrity? Just as Jesus said until our righteousness exceeds that of Pharisees and Sadducees, we still have hurdles to scale on the issues of fidelity.
Cicero said, “Nothing is nobler, nothing more venerable than fidelity. Faithfulness and truth are the most sacred excellences and endowments of the human mind”.
I understand that fidelity is a product of the mindset, it results in a strong moral standing that retains its posture even if the whole world goes otherwise.
I reckon that I need inner strength that the Holy Spirit gives to demonstrate fidelity in the failing world, won’t you join me to pray. (End)
