Philippians 3:13

“The Lord detests differing weights and dishonest scales, do not please Him". Proverbs 20:23

It is about Honesty and Dishonesty. Proverbs tells us plainly that God despises all forms of dishonesty. Not only does God hate dishonesty but we are told that it works against us- if we are dishonest others no longer trust us and we cannot even enjoy our dishonest gains. It is wiser to be honest because “a righteous man escapes trouble” Prov. 12:13

Dishonesty is a difficult sin to avoid! It is easy to cheat if we think no one else is looking. But dishonesty affects the very core of a person. It makes him untrustworthy and untrusting. It eventually makes him unable to know himself or relate to others. DON’T TAKE DISHONESTY LIGHTLY. Even the smallest portion of dishonesty contains enough of the poison of deceit to kill your spiritual life.

I wish normal people have a heart that vampires do.

There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate
a time for war and a time for peace.

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also
sets eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot
fathom what God  has done from beginning to end.

I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and
do good while they live. That everyone may eat and drink, and
find satisfaction in all his toil-this is the gift of God.
I know that everything God does will endure forever;
nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it.
God does it so that men will revere him....
