Meeting an old class mate, we had not seen each other for about 30 years. The Lord has been kind to me. When I saw him again - this time at a hotel lobby - he was looking simple. He wore simple Ankara attire. I felt touched. He walked up to me and was glad to see me again. But deep within me I was not impressed with his status compared to mine and poor me, I couldn't hide it. We exchanged contact details and I could see the joy in him as he collected mine.

I told him I will drop him home in my brand new Range Rover and I pointed it to him. He declined and said he had already called for his car. It looked old, a 2001 Honda Accord.

I invited him the next day for lunch at my house. A part of me wanted to impress him - To show off my success and affluence to him, while another was to discuss opportunities and possibly help him.

He drove to Parkview where I lived. He looked impressed with my home. I had taken a heavy mortgage. In fact I was heavily in debt. We had lunch. He told me he was into small business and particularly real estate. I brought up more business discussions, but he didn't sound too interested. I asked him how I could help him. He said he was fine. I even told him if he was interested, I could help him secure some loans... He looked at me and smiled.

He told me he would invite me over soon to his place. His old car came for him. I was grateful to God for what I had. “Fingers are not all equal”, I thought to myself...I was lucky. I worked in a good place.

Two weeks later, we went to see him in Kitisuru My wife and I. She was reluctant to go because she was not impressed with the man's status as to warrant our visiting him in his house. I was able to convince her that we were close friends in college. We saw the Estate. We asked for directions to his home. Those leading us spoke his name with deference.

It was a simple but lovely home. A 4 bedroom bungalow. I saw 4 cars parked in front. We entered his home. It was simply elegant with a touch of class inside. He welcomed us warmly.

Lunch was well served. His wife called him Baba Gweth.

During lunch, he asked about my MD. He said they were friends. I saw a company gift on one of his tables nearby. That company owned about 38% shares where I worked. I enquired from him about it. He smiled. He told me he owned the company. He also owned the estate.

I did not know when I called him sir... I was in awe of him too.

I had learnt a lesson in humility - A big one. Appearances are deceptive. He noticed my discomfort.

Driving back home, I was very quiet. My wife was humbled and extremely calm. I could perceive the thoughts in her mind. I looked at myself. Living on loans, heavy loans and showing off while someone who pays my salary is quite modest and living a simple life!

Indeed Deeper Rivers Flow In Majestic Silence!

Adjust your perception towards others . God bless you as you read, learn and take a good step of change.

THE CROSS; OUR SALVATION

BIBLE READING: EPHESIANS 2:4-9

For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 1 Corinthians 1:18

When Jesus died on the cross, His death purchased for us, a lot of things. It restored to man, all the things that man lost at the fall of Adam in the garden of Eden. The fall of man brought man into the bondage of the devil. He became a victim of the devil and suffered spiritual attacks, physical attacks, emotional attacks, mental attacks, etc. The worst of all was that man’s fall brought man into bondage from sin. Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage. Galatians 5:1

The death of Jesus Christ on the cross, purchased for man, deliverance and freedom from the devil, from his power, and most especially, deliverance from sin. For the first time since the fall, man could hold his head high and not be bowed down by the bondage of sin. For the first time since Eden, man could approach God as a Father again and commune with Him the way it was meant to be. For the first time, death held no terror for man and simply became a means of transition from earth to glory. Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. Hebrews 2:14-15

The death of Christ on the cross opened up a whole new world of freedom, and victory to us.

PRAYER:
Lord Jesus, thank you for the cross, thank You for the price You paid that brought us out of darkness and into Your light. Help me to understand Your cross and to also begin to see, all that You died to purchase for me, in Jesus name. Amen.

His love has brought us to March..
Faithful God... God is Love and Love is God.
It's your month of Overflow...
Enjoy.
