Yesterday, inspired by my recent discussions with a former believer turned atheist, I wrote a piece called “When it is easier not to believe“, recognising that we all face times of doubt. I think I omitted a seventh and important situation when a believer may be tempted to […]
Jesus teaches us that the pure in heart are blessed because only they will see God (Matt 5:8). When we are gifted with spiritual sight…to believe in God, to be aware of His presence, to desire His fellowship…we are blessed. But there are times when we do not […]
Today, I went for my first walk in a very long time. Anyone who really knows me knows I love walking. I love the ocean breeze that blows in my neighbourhood and I especially love to look at the beautiful houses and discover new routes. For years, I […]
Jesus said for us to be “wise as serpents, but gentle as doves” Matt 10:16. So the wolves and vipers of the world attack us when we approach them to tell them the Truth. Filled with knowledge, but having no desire to change, they like to use carnal […]
The life I want starts today. I will consciously make more effort to give time to these things that are important to me and spend less time on activities that sap my strength and inspiration. With the 24 hours God gives me each day: 1. I will rise […]
Prayer…. Do you really believe it works? If you do, does it work like a leathal weapon, with immediate effect, or more like a slow-ticking time bomb? Is it the first resort in times of crisis, or do you place it aside like an ineffective toy gun, to […]
It is unbelievable that a Word can become Flesh. It is unbelievable that through spoken Words, The World and all that is in it were created. It is unbelievable, until you believe… It is unbelievable that God chose to become a Man. It is unbelievable that though He’s […]
What is the perfect life? I believe it is different for every single person, but the media tries to get us all to want the same things… We are socialized to have certain expectations from life, and follow a specific pathway to happiness. We all know the pathway. […]
Lord, in obedience to You, I try to love others like myself. I desire to do what You do. Show compassion to the weak, Give bread to the needy, And hope to the oppressed. I seek to love as You love Me, But my self often gets in […]
You must have been awesome. Of all the men I’ve ever known, It was you I gave my heart to… Now my heart is the most precious Of all the things I own. It means a lot that I gave it to you… You must have been awesome. […]
I can’t remember my first thought, my first desire nor my first wish… I don’t know what provoked my first cry, my first smile nor my first laugh… But before I uttered my first words, I knew I was special, made for a purpose. I had dreams, held […]
This message by Paul brings me much comfort, for it shows that he also dealt with the strong opposition of his faith in the Risen Christ, and that he had to consider the possibility that he was wrong. Even though he had personally seen Jesus after His resurrection. […]
We feed them, care for them, try not to bother them with too many demands or responsibilities, give them space to play and run around, and keep ourselves looking fresh and attractive so they don’t stray…
The Bible says that there is a time for everything, and preaches the message of balance in our lives. In Christianity, we are taught to deny ourselves, and humble ourselves, putting God and others first. This message is important in a world filled with self-centred people who spend […]
Hi dear readers, I’m starting something new, by striving to answer hard questions on my blog through new posts, as a lot of my content is thought-provoking, and may require further clarity. I’m starting with a series of questions by Dina on remarriage. You may post questions as […]
