THE ONLY SOURCE
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you believe that all things come from only one source?
He is all powerful, all giving and our only resource
Your blessings may be manifested in many ways
God uses every little thing to make us all obey.
No one will receive anything unless God gives it
He knows what is best and what fits
Never forget that we are on our own
Without His power, we will all be broken and torn.

It is amazing how many people live to think that their jobs, wealth, possessions, fame, money and positions come from their hard work or other sources. They boast about what they went through in order to land a job, accumulate wealth, show off their possessions and reach where they are. Most people have forgotten that they won’t have what they got if not for the blessings and grace that God has given them.
The bible tells us that there is only one source of all things on earth and in heaven. God created everything. Many people forget that we all came from him. He is the alpha (the beginning) and the omega (the end). All things comes from him and they will all return to him. He alone has the power to give and also the power to take it back.
PRAYER
Lord, help me to be grateful to you always.
REFLECTION
What are the most precious things God has blessed you with?

No one can receive anything unless God gives it from heaven. – John 3:27 (NLT)
THE ULTIMATE GIVER
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you believe that without God’s grace you cannot have anything?
Do you think that you have a job because you are worth something?
Are you boastful of those talents, skills and wealth that you possess?
Are you thankful for all that you own or do you continually obsess?
No one can receive anything unless God gives it from heaven
All things come from the Father who loves all his children
Be thankful because all things you have comes from Him
He wants you to enjoy all his creation and be free from sin.
Do you enjoy God’s creation? Are you thankful for each little or major things that you have in life? The world does not want to recognize the ultimate giver, the Lord God Almighty. We have a lack of gratitude for the things we receive from him. Some people claim it was their own doing that made them have such things. God is the source of all things.
No one can receive anything unless God gives it from heaven. So, why can’t we be thankful for everything we have because the bible says that we won’t receive anything, unless God gives it to us?
PRAYER
Lord, help me to remember that everything comes from you.
REFLECTION
Why is an attitude of gratitude essential to receive more blessings?
