TOPIC: THE TENANT DIED! CULTIVATE RELATIONSHIPS!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: PROVERBS 18:16-24
A landlord in Vienna, Austria, who unlocked an apartment after his letters announcing a rent increase were not replied, found the body of an elderly 95 year-old tenant, a former university professor in a bed! Investigations believed that the man, Frank Riedl, may have died as many as five years earlier. The police said no one had noticed earlier that he had died because automatic rent payments had gone out regularly from his bank account, which was constantly replenished with automatic deposits from his pension funds.

Wow! The bombshell was when neighbours described the man as a “recluse.” A recluse is a person who loves to live in isolation; though the truth about life is that, it is impossible for one man/ woman to be an island neither can an unfruitful tree make a forest (though it has however been proved that a fruitful tree can make a forest). The open fact about life is that, your destiny is tied to other people’s destinies for godly success and fullness of joy. Hear Joseph Addison: “…three great essentials of happiness are: Something to do, something to love, something to hope for. So, for a man to die alone and unremembered is a big school for the living.
Even if he had no family members, did he not have neighbours? Stephen Wright wrote/asked: “You can’t have everything. Where would you put it?” That means in this world, you will need others at one point or the other. Use today’s devotional to cultivate real relationships. Reconcile with someone! Proverbs 18:24 says “a man that hath friends must shew himself friendly…” Never forget this: Where you end up isn’t the most important thing. It’s the road you take to get there. The road you take is what you will look back on and call your life.” Don’t eat alone! Don’t die alone! Cultivate relationships again! Get involved in this MERCY MONTH! See below:
