Put God First in your lives

Putting God first means not depending on technology to get your career on track.  Ask God for guidance on where you would like to go.

Keeping Track of Volunteer Hours

"Volunteers and the administrative staff of the organizations where they volunteer need to keep track of volunteer hours for various reasons. Volunteers might need the hours for academic credit or to satisfy court or other requirements. Keeping track of the number of volunteer hours donated is important for the nonprofits for grants and donor reports. There are several relatively easy ways you can keep track of your volunteer hours."

Gotta sell it all!

The scripture Matthew 19:16-26 towards the end of the verse it says: "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." It may be impossible for God, but man has to put in the work to make it possible for God to do his wonders.

"First, the goal isn't poverty, but rather love. What do you love?"
"Second, there will be conflict between earthly loves and a heart for God. Where is your heart?"
"Third, sell all, give up, renounce, divest yourself, but surrender ownership."
"Finally, selling possessions and belongings and distributing the proceeds to all, as any had need. 1st: it wasn't compulsory; it was voluntary. 2nd: You see, keeping the property, or even retaining part of the price was not sin, but lying about the property they were withholding something for themselves."

"Indeed, we worship comfort. Perhaps Jesus didn't mean a literal "sell everything", but he unavoidably commanded that we should not be materialists ... and for the most part, we are."
