What does it truly mean to submit to God? I mean if we truly believe in Him, that He's real, that He's here with us all the time, watching us, what does it truly mean to submit to Him? It means that you have to surrender everything in your life to Him. You have to understand that whilst we have free will and we have choices, that He controls everything around us. He wants us to be good. He wants us to bear good fruits but He has a plan for us. If you have accepted Him, our Lord Jesus Christ, as your Saviour and you have truly submitted to Him, then you don't need to worry about the future. You don't need to worry about what's going on around you because God is in control of everything. All we can do, all we must do, is focus on: - praying - reading the Bible - praising Him - being good people, setting an example to all the people around us We must be the shining example. We have peace in our hearts and only God can truly give us peace in our hearts. It doesn't matter how rich or poor you are, it doesn't matter what your background is. Only God can truly give you peace in your heart. Once you have that and once you understand that He's real, then you can just focus on the present. Be the best version that you can be. Be the best father, friend, son, the best worker wherever you're working. If you're an employer, treat your employees correctly. Be kind to people. There's nothing wrong with being strong but being strong doesn't confuse kindness with weakness. A lot of people do that and it's wrong. You can be strong, you can get your opinion across, but you do it in a respectful way. All the noise that swirls around us in politics and social things that are going on in society itself, leave that to God. If you want to see changes, pray to God in your prayers. Tell Him, "I love you God so much. Thank you for everything you've given to me but I have these problems and these issues. Explain to me, show me, help me to understand and read that Bible every day. The doctrine is in the Bible, the living flowing waters of the gospel are in that Bible and are in your heart. This is why we receive the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is inside our heart and is transforming us all the time to be good people who believe in God and our Lord Jesus Christ." Every morning be thankful for another day of life because God is in control of everything. When you pray thank Him for everything and tell Him all your concerns and what you need in detail, okay, things about your business life, your family, your friends, academic life, whatever it is. It's truly special to do that. I hope this was useful to read and thanks very much.

Remember the first two laws of Christianity: 1. Thou shalt love God above all else. 2. Thou shalt love thy neighbor. What does that mean really? It means not to sin, not to commit sin against other people. That is the true meaning of spiritual love. What does that mean for our daily lives? It means that we have to think about everything we say, everything we do, our actions. We are meant to submit to God. Submitting to God means allowing God to control all aspects of our life. All we concentrate on is doing the best with what we have, living a godly life and pleasing God, which means: - praying - reading the Bible - praising Him - not sinning I'm not just talking about the major sins; I'm talking about the subconscious sins as well: - anger - jealousy - resentment - greed All of these things are sometimes more dangerous than the major sins. We have to consider all of this when we are acting out our daily lives at work, with our families. Of course we're not perfect; we're human and God knows this but he sees our heart. He knows what we are thinking; he knows what we're going to do if there's 100% transparency there so if you are sinning with intent eventually God will give up on you. Doesn't matter how much you believe in Him but if you believe in Him that Lord Jesus Christ is our Savior and you work towards removing sin from your life, God will reward you. This is the key and we have to take that into account with everything we do. Work hard, be confident in yourself, take care of people around you, talk to them about God and bring them to Him but you can never persuade anybody to follow God. Only God can. Our job is to open the door but it's God's job to bring them in so do not be arrogant and think that you can change somebody's heart. Only God can.

What happened with Henry Nowak in the Uk was a tragedy. No one should have to face what he went through. The anti racism and equality laws in the UK have gone to far. The police should treat everyone equally and apply due process accordingly. The accused was clearly ill. Yes he was a Sikh who are allowed to carry ceremonial knives but it is just as easy to pick up a kitchen knife and commit the same crime. Blaming it on a single religion is ridiculous. The accused should never have been allowed out in public based on his medical and criminal history. That was the failing. Immigration has brought massive benefits to the UK but I agree that if you move to the UK then you must respect our laws and learn English. You must become a productive member of society. It is a privilege to be in the UK. We allow freedom of religion and freedom of speech. You must comply with our laws though or you must leave. The laws of the UK are based on Christian thinking. You don't have to be a Christian to live in the UK and you can practice your religion here, but you must comply with our laws. God commands us to love our neighbour which means not to sin against them. But if your neighbour breaks the law then there are consequences. God commands us to live within the laws of the country we reside in. We must respect them. If you cannot respect the laws of the country you reside in then you should leave.

What does it mean to be happy? I feel that family, friendship, a sense of purpose, faith, health and being financially comfortable are the key factors. But society seems to be obsessed with money, ranking far higher than any of the other factors. But when people are close to death and are looking back on their lives, they rarely wish that they were richer. I do believe that entrepreneurs should be encouraged with incentives. In fact I think people such as Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Richard Branson etc should never have to pay income tax because they have generated so much wealth and employed so many people, the additional tax revenue raised from their companies and employees far outweighs anything that they would pay. But the rest of society should not be left behind. Jesus teaches us to look after everyone around us. Everyone deserves food, shelter, safety, an education and opportunities to improve themselves. The basics should be guaranteed. Capitalism is the best system we have for creating wealth and moving society forward but it only works properly when everyone has access to information and opportunities equally. This clearly is not the case as the rich tend to manipulate the system for preserving and growing their own wealth. This is corruption and greed which are sins. No wonder societies are collapsing because of this. Unless we fundamentally change how people behave then I believe capitalism will collapse as well. We must all look into our hearts and cleanse our lives from sin.

I find it strange, this obsession with financial gains. Everyone talks about the profits of this, the GDP of that and how we should maximize financial gains. Of course this is important. Economies must grow for all of our benefit. But our purpose in life is to love and praise God, not to be the richest person. When people are close to death, they never say, oh I wish I had been richer. Most will say, I wish I had had better relationships with their parents, siblings, children, extended family and friends. They wish they had been healthier, helped more, ...... Power and money don't really become part of the conversation. And sadly less and less of us are wishing they had had a better relationship with God. Yet modern society is obsessed with money. How can we reconcile this major difference? Why do so many rich people committ suicide? Why are they so unhappy if they have so much? They have become lost.

I think a lot about society today and the way the world works. There is so much negativity out there in the mainstream press and it's all we get to see. I guess bad news generates more clicks and views? Advertisers love to as it means more revenues, but it's a dark place for the world. Yet there are so many wonderful things happening around us but we never get to hear or see it. Good news doesn't generate as many clicks or views apparently. Or are we being deliberately manipulated to think dark thoughts? To lose hope. As a Christian, my purpose is to love and praise God. To love God so not like human love. To love God is not to sin against him which is not easy. After this I must love my neighbour which also means to not sin against him or her. These are beautiful things to think about but we all struggle to fulfill them. Human beings are weak. We need God to instruct us, to give us goals to follow and fight for. If we follow these rules then the world will become a better place, and there will be more good news to report. Hopefully it will generate more clicks as well.

So I live in Dubai, and it has been an interesting few days. I have been impressed with the UAE Defence Ministry and their allies in helping stop the attacks. There were many missiles and drones launched against us, but only a tiny fraction has caused problems. Almost quiet today

The power of reciprocity. The basic human instinct of doing something for someone because they have done something for you is a powerful tool for all businesses and marketers.
