✨ NOT ALL THAT GLITTERS IS GOLD ✨

I’m sure many of us have come across this popular saying:
“Not all that glitters is gold.”
But have you ever really paused to understand what it means?

Let me share my perspective.

Years ago, I had a friend who got caught up in a certain kind of lifestyle. It wasn't necessarily his desire at first — it was influenced by the people around him. But eventually, it became his own desire.

The Bible says in Luke 6:45:

> “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.”

He started modeling that lifestyle — and yes, from the outside, it looked like fun. And like many of us in this generation, I found myself tempted too.

It’s true when the Bible says,

> “Bad company corrupts good morals” — (1 Corinthians 15:33).
Thank God for rescuing me.

The Turning Point

At some point, my friend would say, “Just try it. It won’t harm you.”
And slowly, I gave in. I started modeling my life after his. Because honestly, that’s what the world promotes — appearance, popularity, and pride.

But deep down, I began to lose pieces of myself:

I lost my humility.

I lost my closeness with God.

I became prideful.

I entered a wrong relationship, which the Holy Spirit had warned me against — and as expected, it failed.

Why?
Because I was chasing what was popular, not what was spiritual.
What looked fulfilling on the outside had no true purpose on the inside.

And then it hit me:

> Not all that glitters is gold.

What Looks Good Isn’t Always Godly

Living a luxurious life without purpose leads to emptiness and destruction.
A life rooted in the glory of the flesh will never satisfy the soul.
And ultimately, a life without God is a life without direction.

God didn’t call us to blend in with the world.
He called us to stand out:

> “You are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a peculiar people, that you should show forth the praises of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.”
— 1 Peter 2:9

> “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.”
— Matthew 5:14

You Are Not Ordinary

You are not just a human being — you are a supernatural being in Christ:

Ephesians 2:6 — You are seated with Christ in heavenly places.

1 Corinthians 12 — You carry spiritual gifts.

Luke 10:19 — You have authority over the enemy.

So I urge us all:
Shun worldly desires.
Pursue God's kingdom.
Because in God, we find purpose, peace, and true fulfillment.

Stay blessed.
Stay purposeful.
Stay full of God.

SOME CALL IT LUCK, BUT I CALL IT CONSISTENT AND MASTERY OF THE CRAFT

One thing I have come to know and learn about life is that:
No one is lucky. Every feat achieved is a result of constant dedication, consistency, re-strategizing, and mastering your field of investment or craft.

Take Steph Curry for example.
We all see him making unbelievable 3-point shots during games and breaking records, but what most people don’t see is the work behind the scenes.
Before he performs for the world to see, he shoots over a thousand accurate shots in practice—every single day.
That’s the kind of discipline and consistency that produces results.

In life, business, career, farming, crypto, or anything you want to succeed in—there’s no shortcut.
If you’re not putting in your own “1000 shots” every day in your field, don’t expect to shine when the lights come on.

Stay focused. Stay hungry. Stay prayerful.

🌟 FROM PIT TO PALACE: THE POWER OF CHARACTER 🌟

Joseph was betrayed by his own brothers, sold as a slave, and thrown into prison — yet he never compromised his character. Even when no one was watching, he refused to sin against God.
“How then could I do such a wicked thing and sin against God?” — Genesis 39:9

In the midst of rejection and false accusations, Joseph stayed faithful. He didn’t chase shortcuts — he chose integrity, and God elevated him from the prison to the palace.

✅ Stay diligent. ✅ Fear God. ✅ Let your name be worth more than gold.

Your season of elevation is coming — not by bribery or luck, but by faith, discipline, and integrity.

Keep Striking Until It Lights Up: The Drive of Thomas Edison

There was a time when the world had no electric light. Just darkness—lit by candles, fire, or gas lamps. But one man believed we could do better.

Thomas Edison had a dream to create a safe, affordable electric light bulb. He wasn't a genius in the way the world defines it. He was a man of relentless drive and ambition. He failed—not once, not twice, but over 1,000 times—trying to get it right.

Most people would have stopped. But Edison pressed on. When asked why he didn’t give up, he said:

> “I have not failed. I've just found 1,000 ways that won't work.”

Eventually, in 1879, after countless experiments, Edison succeeded. The light bulb worked—and the world was changed forever.

What’s the lesson?

In life, your vision may not work out the first, second, or hundredth time. But that doesn’t mean it’s not from God. It means it needs your faith, persistence, and trust.

> "The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance..." — Proverbs 21:5 (ESV)
"Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not." — Galatians 6:9
"Though the vision tarry, wait for it… it will surely come." — Habakkuk 2:3

Edison’s journey is a reminder that drive isn't about speed—it’s about direction and discipline.

So if you’ve been trying and failing—don’t quit yet.
Heaven doesn’t reward quick success; it rewards faithful effort.

> God is still working. And maybe, just like Edison, your next attempt might be the one that lights up the world.

"If Only We Knew..."

Yesterday, I came across a message that deeply touched me. It was a simple yet powerful reminder: If only we truly knew that God has the best plans for us — if we believed that He has our best interests at heart — we wouldn't worry so much. We wouldn't stress ourselves trying to figure life out alone. Instead, we'd rest in Him and trust.

The verse that came alive for me was Proverbs 16:1 —

> “The plans of the heart belong to man, but the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.”

This reminded me: I may have my plans, but God holds the final word. And that’s not something to fear — it’s something to rest in, because He’s good, and He’s intentional.

God revealed to me something simple but life-changing:
If He has a plan for me, why should I worry?
I’m doing my best — but He’s doing more. He owns everything. He lacks nothing. And He’s my Father.

It hit me — I’m not just someone passing through this life. I’m an inheritance in God. If He created the universe, and I am His child, how could He not care for me? Earthly parents give their children good things — how much more will He?

The Bible says:

> “Do you see a man diligent in his work? He will stand before kings, not mere men.”
(Proverbs 22:29)

So I’ll keep working, keep trusting, and
Hoping
Cause he has my best interest and he can do more than I imagine or I ask for this is just amazing.

I pray someone sees this and never give up on God cause He's not giving up on you.

Faith in God Changes Everything

Having faith in God is one of the greatest treasures a person can have. Life brings challenges, but faith becomes an anchor through it all. It reminds you that you belong to Someone greater—Someone who can do the impossible.

Remember Daniel in the lion’s den (Daniel 6). He chose to trust God even when facing death. And God delivered him—shutting the mouths of lions. That’s the power of unwavering faith.

When life gets tough, faith reminds you: God will come through. He never fails—even when it looks like He’s silent.

So I encourage you—make faith in God the center of your life. It’s not just religion; it’s trust, surrender, and confidence in the One who holds your future.

Faith will open doors no man can shut. Not because of who you are, but because of who He is.

"As the calendar turns, so do we.
A new month is not just a date — it's a doorway.
An invitation to evolve, to rise, and to stretch beyond what once felt safe.

Like the moon begins again, so can you.
Start small. Start softly.
Even the quietest roots grow into the strongest trees.

This month, choose growth —
not the loud, showy kind, but the steady, soul-deep kind.
Even if it’s slow, even if no one notices,
progress is still progress.

Let this be the month you grow into more of who you are meant to be."

Whatever You Sow, You Will Reap

Most times in life, we forget a simple but powerful truth: what we do always comes back to us. The Bible reminds us in Galatians 6:7 — "Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap." This principle is as true in our daily lives as it is in the spiritual realm.

We’re also told in Matthew 7:12 to "do unto others what you would have them do unto you." Yet, many of us fall short. We’re given opportunities, responsibilities, or even other people’s property, and instead of treating it with care, we handle it carelessly — simply because it’s not our own. But how would we feel if the same was done to us?

One important lesson in life is this: if you can take care of what belongs to others as if it were your own, there is nothing that can stop your progress. Why? Because you’re proving yourself faithful. When you're entrusted with little and manage it well, you prepare yourself for greater.

Some people mismanage what’s been given to them and later wonder why they’re facing struggles. But the truth is, many of those challenges are seeds we’ve sown in the past—carelessness, dishonor, or neglect. You may even find yourself deceived or disappointed, all because you didn’t uphold the same standard you expect from others.

If you want to be loved, then choose to love others. If you want peace, give peace. If you want blessings, be a blessing. It’s that simple.

This also reminds me of the Parable of the Talents. The master entrusted his servants with talents before going away. One servant buried his talent out of fear and returned it untouched. It wasn’t the fact that he returned it—it was the attitude he had that angered the master. God has given us gifts, talents, and opportunities not to hide or waste, but to multiply and use for His glory.

So, here’s the takeaway:

Treat others the way you want to be treated.

Manage everything you’re given as if it were your own.

Use your talents and gifts—they are blessings meant to bless others.

Be faithful with little, and more will be added to you.

At the end of the day, God rewards faithfulness, integrity, and love. Sow good seeds, and in due time, you’ll reap a harvest you’ll be proud of.
