LIFE IS LIKE AN EXAM; GET IT RIGHT

And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.

—LUKE 15:12, 14

Life is like an exam. When you are writing a paper, you may have about a hundred multiple-choice questions to answer. Your job will be to decide and pick the right answer. As you keep answering from question one through to one hundred, you would have decided on every single question. At the end, every answer is going to be put together and a mark will be given. The mark you get will be dependent on the decisions you made whilst answering every individual question.

At the end of the exam, some people may fail; others may pass. Those who failed did not fail on just one question; they made the wrong decision concerning many questions.

One of the most important skills to develop in life is your ability to take good decisions. Life will bring up series of questions: How are you going to feed yourself? How are you going to provide accommodation for yourself? Who are you going to marry? There is only one answer, and you must get it right.

God’s Word is the answer sheet to many of life’s questions. Make sure you read it so you can provide the right answers!

MONEY CAN’T LOVE YOU BACK

For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

—JOHN 3:16

One time I saw an inscription on a bus that read, Money can’t love you back. You can love money, but it is not possible for it to love you back. Why? Because money has no emotions.

I was once chatting with an unmarried woman who told me she did not need love; she needed money. I was sad for her, because love is more important than money. The most important things in life are free; they cannot be bought. An example is air.

Love is something every creature responds to. Even wild animals respond to love. There is a longing in all creation, including humans, to be loved. Without love, a void will always be in your heart. I appreciate it when my wife and children show love to me.

To fill this void called love, God sent His Son to die for us. God’s first response to humanity was not to give us money, but to show us love.

Until we respond to the love of God, we will always have a void. We can do this by accepting Jesus into our hearts. Romans 5:8 reads, But God commen-deth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Accept Jesus into your heart if you have not, and experience His love!

POWER TO ENJOY

There is an evil which I have seen under the sun, and it is common among men: a man to whom God hath given riches, wealth, and honour, so that he wanteth nothing for his soul of all that he desireth, yet God giveth him not power to eat thereof, but a stranger eateth it: this is vanity, and it is an evil disease.

—ECCLESIASTES 6:1-2

Diseases are not only physical in nature, but spiritual also. You can have children and not enjoy them. You can eat and not enjoy it. You can buy a nice TV and never unpack it.

You can marry the most beautiful woman and not enjoy your marriage. Prince Charles married a very beautiful woman called Lady Diana; a woman that people dreamed about. They had a royal wedding and the whole world watched it. It was a big wedding! However, Prince Charles never enjoyed the
