Please leave a comment and let me know if you are reading the blog. Many e-mailed me to let me know they read it but it would be great to hear from you on an ongoing basis. I leave posts as the Lord leads me, so if there is none, keep checking something will be there sometime.

Enterprise
Enterprise is always better than ease.
Every time we choose to do less than we possibly can, we limit our possibilities; we stifle our potential. You can alter your life by doing a little more each day to work smarter, by developing a habit of efficiency rather than the habit of activity.

BABYLON!!!
Hi Everyone
Saw this today by Watchman Nee:
Revelation 19
Hallelujah! 1After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting: "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God...
This the first Halleluja in the book of Revelation, is provoked by the downfall of a city which is again and again described as "great". Why does heaven so exult at the overthrow of Babylon? Because Babylon embodies the spirit of empty show and pretence.
Israel's first recorded sin after entering Canaan was the taking of a Babylonish garment. Achan coveted Babylon's grand style: he wanted to look good. And the first sin recorded in the early church was similar; an attempt on the part of Ananias and his wife Saphira to win man's esteem by appearing more self-sacrificing than they in fact were. They too wanted to look good.
How readily in the churches today do we put on an act to impress others and establish for ourselves a place of repute and acclaim!
This is the principle of Babylon the whore, and it is abominable to God.
