KEEP YOUR VINEYARD!

They made me the keeper of the vineyards; but my [own] vineyard I have not kept. Songs 1:6

Beware of spending your life building others, while neglecting yourself and your loved ones. Sometimes, the need to be loved and appreciated makes us go overboard in helping others, while we hurt ourselves.

Dear Mr generous, as you are busy helping and bailing out all sorts of people, are you depleting your own family?

Employee, as you give your best years to making a lot of money, predominantly for your employer, when will you begin to make some money for yourself?
Mr Charming: As you open doors and run errands for other ladies, who is doing the same for your wife?
Secretary of the year: As you serve your boss exceptionally well, do you do the same for your own husband?

Mentor, as you are busy raising others, who is raising your own children?

Minister, as you raise others in the faith, how is your own walk with God doing?

Miss nice, as you give time to all the people's demands, are your own responsibilities suffering?

Fiery Evangelist, as you win the world to Jesus, who is winning your family?

Be wise. If necessary, reset your priorities and take good care of your vineyards. You will be accountable to God for them.

Barikiweni!
