Wise Living
In the wise words of Apostle Paul, he encourages us to lead our lives with purpose, and live wisely, fully aware of the opportunities that each day presents. He warns us against mindless living, urging us instead to comprehend and implement God’s intentions, while expressing gratitude in all situations. “Don’t act thoughtlessly, but understand what […]
God’s Glory
Imagine the audacious Elijah, three years after predicting a drought, returns and puts the prophets of Baal to the test. He asks them, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; if Baal is God, follow him.” (1 Kings 18:21) This challenge leads to a gripping showdown to […]
Turbulent Winds
Twelve years ago, we shared a blog post that’s still meaningful in today’s ever-changing world. It revolves around Matthew 14:22-33. Sometime back, while exploring the New Testament, I read a powerful scripture, “But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, Lord save me! (Matthew 14:30 NASB).” This verse resonated […]
Gratitude
I’ve been reflecting on the past couple of months about all the trials and tribulations I have experienced. I find myself in a state of deep gratitude to God for giving me strength and grace to conquer the challenges. The Psalms have been my guiding light, providing solace and reminding me that the Lord hears […]
Hope
When I think of hope, a hymn immediately comes to my mind. We sang this hymn on a regular basis as a kind of norm at one of my previous church homes, but now when I think about it, this was anything but a normal song, it was God ordained to inspire and to give […]
HELP
Years ago, I was watching TV, and they were reporting on the Earthquake that had happened in Haiti. There was a man who had been rescued after miraculously surviving for four weeks trapped under rubble. He was taken to the hospital, and the reporters were talking to the doctor, and they asked if someone could really have been […]
It Shall End In Praise
Despair is when you let the circumstances speak to you about what is going to happen. Often times when we are going through something we wait until we receive victory to praise God. However, as Emma Jean Foster sings “Don’t wait till the battle is over to shout now.” Don’t wait, respond with praise right now. […]
Halfsies
When we were kids, we had this thing we called “halfsies”. That is, if someone got something that we wanted like candy, we would call “halfsies”. Then they would have to share with us half of whatever they had. I’ve noticed that we do this with God. We want to take care of the part […]
Cherishing the Essence of H.O.P.E.
We define Hope as trusting Jesus for all the things He says are going to happen. Hope is a powerful thing. It is trusting Jesus in the midst of your circumstances, even if the circumstances don’t look promising. But just when you don’t think you can hope anymore. Jesus shows up. Jesus is always on […]
