Your Portion

I was told the prisoners in Japan get served their food proportionate to their body size, and they don’t get three meals a day. I thought about that while I was eating, and said to myself; I would starve. I also thought about the word of God, when the bible tells us that God gives each of us a measure of faith.

Nobody gets the same portion. Before we were formed in our mothers womb, God knew how much faith we needed to start out with. He gave all of us enough faith, to believe his word, and to make an intelligent decision to follow him. That was included in our measure of faith or our portion.

We should never look at someone else’s portion and get mad when we see they have more than us. Because, we don’t know what they had to go through to get that portion, and we don’t know what they are going through to keep it.

Be satisfied with your portion and after you’ve been faithful over a few things God will make you ruler over many.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.

Exercise

Many of us exercise to stay fit and not gain weight. We run, walk, bike, swim, lift weights etc…
We set our alarms, we get workout partners and we stay committed to our routine.

I wonder, do we exercise our faith the same way. Do we read, study and meditate on the word daily? Do we have prayer partners to keep us on track? Do we incorporate fasting? How much weight has our faith lost?

Our faith, as well as our bodies need exercise. It does us no good to be physically fit and not be spiritually fit. The good thing about becoming spiritually fit, is you can start anytime, anywhere and anyplace.

Be blessed and continue to be a blessing.
