Our people must learn to do good by meeting the urgent needs of others then they will not be unproductive. – Titus 3:14(NLT)
AVOIDING UNPRODUCTIVITY
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you having difficulty in accomplishing things?
Do you find time fly by as you do something?
Believers must learn to do good and avoid unproductivity
How often do you reach out to help somebody?
God expects us to meet others’ urgent needs
Do you go out of your way to do a good deed?
Bless others by giving them a helping hand
It is one way to show obedience to God’s command.

How often do you get robbed of time by the enemy? Sometimes, we even have no awareness about this. We work at performing at our jobs, relationships and other goals. We toil from day till night but never pay attention to others around us who are in pain or in so much need. We take for granted opportunities that could have been giving us spiritual fruits to harvest. We get so wrapped up in our small tiny world and pay no attention to someone just nearby who needs all they help they can get.
The bible tells us that one of the reasons why we become unproductive is because we are doing works of the flesh instead of works of the Spirit. If we meet the urgent needs of others, we will produce more spiritual fruits.
PRAYER
Lord, show me always when there is an opportunity to meet others’ needs.
REFLECTION
Why do you think God commands us to care for those in need?
