When Christian believes they know it all, it is when God shows them their vanity. It is similar to thinking of knowing the exact date of Rapture. It is better to accept that there are others ahead of us who are wiser than we are rather than we thinking we are better than others. This is pure humility. Think of why the dullest people achieve distinction in their exams while the most talented failed. Think of why the ugliest ones are the richest while the most handsome are the poorest people on earth. Exhibiting weakness in diverse endeavours does not necessarily mean exactly that. It is learning to rely on Jehovah’s Grace to pull through life. Yes, it is worth it. Yes, it is good depending on Him than on one’s self intelligence.
His mercy is from generation to generation. His love is as deep as oceans. His presence is indescribable because He is omnipresent. His name is Emmanuel, and our ever-present God. Thank you, Lord. Thank you for your faithfulness.
Every action comes with a price. Fairness, within the shallow space of this daunting world, demands utter sacrifices. As Christians, there is no better response to living like Christ than living a life full of integrity how we treat others and expected them to reciprocate in return. But what if they don’t? What happens when we cross the border and instead choose corruptibility?
El Shaddai, our Help in times of suffering. Our Protector and Deliverer from all forces of life. Only You we can trust because only You remains forever faithful. Your unwavering love is our assurance. Thank you.
Nothing destroys a good relationship other than excessive words. Nothing breaks apart good friends like harsh words. Nothing makes a person lose their sense of morality, like a lack of self-control. If you don’t learn to take charge of what you say and how you say it, your words will open for you the gateway to hell.
There are two types of Christians: those who depend on others to pray for them and those who pray independently. Which side do you belong? Understanding the power of prayer is the step ahead to troubleshooting any life’s issues. Prayer is such a powerful escape route for any Christians who so desire to change their lives. It does not surprise the famous saying that a prayerless life is prey for the enemies. Learn to pray!
In Christ, we are safe. In Christ, we can live fearlessly. In Christ, we have the boldness to take risks and rise above the storms of life. In Christ, we find all-around fulfilment. Why then do we ask Him for things when all we should be doing is to praise and worship Him at all times?
Shall we say God doesn’t know what He is doing by extending the same treatment to both the righteous and criminals? Not! Many unrighteous people often think God does not exist or He is a fake because they are not being punished. But God’s love is so precious that He extends it to everyone. To sinners, the sunlight is a sign of second chance because He is waiting for them to turn away from their sin and return to Him. To the righteous, His everlasting sunlight upon their lives is a sign of His grace over them. That is why God’s ways are different because He knows what He is doing.
There is no better way to say a trying moment than to use wisdom. Many of us have acted so fast during conflicting times and confrontations that we barely leave the time for wisdom to think things through. If we get a second chance, are we going to embrace wisdom or not?
Doing good to others, even when in the face of rejection, does not cause pain. A single act of kindness can wipeout unexpected chaos. Good deeds free the heart of any resentment. Follow the pathway of being good to others.
No matter how massive is a rat, the moment it sees a kitten within its territory, it knows its days are counted. Day by day, the kitten grows up to be the cat’s most significant woe. The more any Christians nurture the Holy Spirit in their life, the more He becomes mighty in their lives to the extent that all negativity will disappear. Many believers tend to neglect the Holy Spirit, but what they do not know is, the Christian journey is incomplete without the Spirit of God. He is our greatest ally in all aspects of our lives.
