Fifteen Things God Won’t Ask

• God won’t ask which car you drive, but will ask how many people you drove who didn’t have transportation.
   
• God won’t ask how big is your house, but will ask how many people you welcomed into your home.
• God won’t ask about the fancy clothes in your wardrobe, but will ask how many of those clothes helped the needy.
• God won’t ask about your social status, but will ask what kind of class you displayed with others.
• God won’t ask how many material possessions you had, but will ask if they dictated your life.
• God won’t ask what your highest salary was, but will ask if you compromised your character to obtain that salary.
• God won’t ask how much overtime you worked, but will ask if you worked overtime for your family and loved ones.
• God won’t ask how many promotions you received, but will ask how you promoted others.
• God won’t ask what your job title was, but will ask if you reformed your job to the best of your ability.
• God won’t ask what you did to help yourself, but will ask what you did to help others.
• God won’t ask how many friends you had, but will ask how many people to whom you were a true friend.
• God won’t ask what you did to protect your rights, but will ask what you did to protect the rights of others.
• God won’t ask in what neighborhood you lived, but will ask how you treated your neighbors.
• God won’t ask about the color of your skin, but will ask about the content of your character.
• God won’t ask how many times your deeds matched your words, but will ask how many times they didn’t.

Ben Sim: don´t be sad because “you never fulfilled any of the above”, remember that despite the reckless way that in many moments we live our lives, God keeps on being merciful and will always forgive us for our weaknesses.

“God won’t ask how much overtime you worked, but will ask if you worked overtime for your family and loved ones. “— I was fully inclined towards work.. and worked like anything..with result i was unable to spend time with my family.. but later i realised that both work and family are important in once life…and we need to balance both..

Chandu: Thanks, you got what I meant!

Dipesh: Thanks, you´ve brought the right complement to what I´ve written. Self improvement is always something to bear in mind to be accomplished.

Hardik: Sorry, but I think you´re mistaken, I didn´t mean anything different from what I wrote, I said clearly what I meant. Maybe what you wrote is what you meant to say, your own opinion about the message and the comments….and I apologize in advance in case I´ve misjudged your words…

Beautifully written, challenging. Are we not told that God is more interested in our hearts and motives than in our looks and lip service? Thank-you for your reminder.
