A soul for the world
don’t sound like a fair trade.

Welcome to economics for your genetics.
Such a blessing to leave an inheritance.
A portion to the Lord is first place,
but not just to see your barns full of grain.
Then build another bridge
for your grandchild, grandchild.
Add another twig
for your grandchild, grandchild.
Branch out.
Put seven streams of income in your game-plan.
Maximise your counsel of advisors.
Handshakes with ministers and kings
for humanity’s sake
when you get paid by the parliaments.
Time fly bill by bill, brick by brick.
You wonder what your will shall will.
Your kids have kids.
Tell them,
“If nobody in the field, then no crop in the cellar.
There’s a difference ‘tween idleness and rest, son”.
When you operate,
you’ve gotta move militant.
But keep joy as a resident of process.

Stay planted by the water.
Keep your roots by the stream.
Keep your faith in God,
He’s the source of all that you need.

You’re not supposed to love the money,
it’s a tool.
And some blessings come free
through favour by favour.
Don’t be chasing all of the prey in the field at once unless you want to starve.
If you ain’t willing to dig and sow,
then don’t feel entitled to eat from the harvest.
If you want to skip the labour,
you don’t deserve to feast when the food is served.
Talk is cheap,
effort is affordable.
Actions speak louder than spoken words.
And whoever doesn’t surf that wavelength…
respectfully tell them ride separately.
Furthermore,
don’t associate with a scammer.
Their sick senses are contagious.
Never let them plant a seed of thievery.
Nip them in the bud,
mute all their crooked speech.
Tax evasion is so appealing
but consequences follow every form of stealing.
Prevent shoulda-coulda scenarios.
When you break the bread,
don’t finesse a crumb.
Home ain’t happy
if the breadwinner won’t slice enough of the loaf
‘cause of greed for the dough.
And blessings must pass behind curtains
when serving the orphans and widows.
No courtesy shows.
Trumpets should not blow around a donation.
He sees it all.
Go for God’s validation.
‘Cameras off’ ain’t a sacred law,
but no clout-chasing operations, dawg.
And don’t be charitable ‘cause you expect to earn.
Givers get broken hearts when they expect returns.
Slavery comes to life through debt.
Put an X through owe;
pay off what you are lent.
Give loans but with sense or give it away.
But don’t be reckless when you’re giving away.
‘Cause being skeptical is not the same as stingy.
You’re better off clutching your belongings
if your heart ain’t in it.

Stay planted by the water.
Keep your roots by the stream.
Keep your faith in God,
He’s the source of all that you need.
You’ve gotta stack some food up for the future.
If an ant can do it,
why can’t a human?

Jesus said
that the kingdom of heaven
is like a king who prepared a banquet for his son.
He sent his servants
to those who had been invited to the banquet
to tell them to come,
but they refused to come.
Then he sent some more servants
and said,
“Tell those who have been invited
that I have prepared my dinner.
My oxen and fattened cattle have been butchered,
and everything is ready.
Come to the wedding banquet”.
But they paid no attention and went off.
Some seized the servants and killed them.
The king was enraged.
He sent his army and destroyed those murderers
and burned the city.
Then he said to his servants,
“The wedding banquet is ready
but those I invited did not deserve to come.
So go to the street corners
and invite to the banquet anyone you find”.
So the servants went out into the streets
and gathered all the people they could find,
the bad as well as the good,
and the wedding hall was filled with guests.
But when the king came in to see the guests,
he noticed a man there
who was not wearing wedding clothes.
So he asked the man,
“How did you get in here
without wedding clothes, friend?”.
The man was speechless.
Then the king told the attendants,
“Tie him hand and foot,
and throw him outside,
into the darkness,
where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
For many are invited,
but few are chosen”.

Selah.
