Topic: Do not judge.
Matthew 7 :1
Do not judge others, and you will not be judged.
We only reap what we sow. If you sow judgment you will reap judgment but if you sow love you will reap love.
Thought for the day: because we don’t have the power to understand everything and because we are no better than everyone else, bring love and support around us and not judgmentThursday, 17th
Topic: Do not worry
Matthew 6 :27
Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?
this verse teaches us that our worries can do no good for us. They cannot add even a second to the length of our lives. It is only a waste of time and energy and it is an indirect way of removing all the power of God over our life and believing ourselves capable of fixing things for ourselves.
Thought for the day: Let us stop worrying, may the joy of the Lord be our share and let God be God

Topic: The world needs you
Romans 8 :19
For all creation is waiting eagerly for that future day when God will reveal who his children really are.
The world is looking for models, examples, solutions to problems. There is a time for everything, wouldn’t it be time for us children of God that we are to appear in the eyes of the world to bring light and solutions in all areas?
Thought for the day: Your fights as well as your victories today are tips for tomorrow. Don’t give up because people out there are counting on you. May the Lord be your strength.

Topic: Let’s seek the good
Romans 12 :17
Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable.
The evil that some do to us does not mean that they are all bad. Each of us has good in him. Our duty as Christians is to bring out this good in everyone and around us by means of the word that we announce and the actions that we take.
Thought for the day: Just as light drives out darkness, so good drives out evil. Look for the good around us and the evil will go away.

Topic: Run towards the goal
Philippians 3:12-13-14
12 I don’t mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me. 13 No, dear brothers and sisters, I have not achieved it, but I focus on this one thing: Forgetting the past and looking forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.
the apostle Paul in his passages teaches us that we have a part of the responsibility in this daily process of perfection. For us it is a question of running towards our salvation based on Christ and forgetting, forgetting our past which can no longer bring us anything.
Thought for the day: Let’s not stay in our past, but run towards the bright future that God has shaped for us.
