Everybody wants to be in love. Everybody. Even those who hide from the world, who seclude themselves and who have little patience for other humans. Yes, they too want someone to love them. Someone who thinks they are just awesome. Someone who lights up when they are around, […]
More than a week ago, I shared my counsel with a lady who was in love with a man, who had told her that he couldn’t move forward with the relationship if kissing was off the table. My counsel to her, based on my understanding, was that I […]
This post is a consolidation of a discussion I had with a friend on Facebook, after I shared this tweet on my timeline today: “Love is an #emotion before it is a #decision. #ItsnotThatComplicated…” The tweet was inspired by a discussion I had with two of my friends on […]
There was a guy I dated before I met my husband. He was not the kind of guy I usually went for. Usually, I date guys around my age, but he was almost ten years older. He wasn’t very handsome, but good looking enough. He was also someone […]
It had been a few months, and I knew something had changed. I didn’t want to believe it, I couldn’t bare the thought. I tried to explain his behaviour away, tried to think that perhaps our problems were circumstantial, and that we would soon overcome the rough patch. […]
Nothing takes the romance out of a relationship quite like having a baby! Whether or not you are prepared for it or desirous of it, the toll of having a new-born is multidimensional. Aside the fact that being pregnant and enduring labour does things to a woman’s self-image […]
“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that […]
“Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye […]
Can you believe in one and believe in the other too? I believe so. They actually both work together for the glory of God. One is God’s calling and empowerment, and the other is our choice and will-power. The Bible says: “And we know that all things work […]
The mind is as to the heart as reason is as to passion. They war continually and rarely agree. The mind believes it is superior, and seeks always to lead the heart. The heart however longs for independence…to do as it pleases, damning the consequences. I see parallels […]
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. […]
It is a popular and true saying that “you cannot give what you do not have”. This has led many people to seek first to acquire, so that they will be best placed to give…if they feel so inclined. The temptation though is to believe that there is a […]
The greatest and most effective lie of the Devil is the lie that he doesn’t exist!!! So many people are comfortable believing this lie, while he continues his ministry in their lives…leading them farther and farther away from the truth. If you don’t believe he exists, you won’t […]
“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth” (John 4:24). Jesus tells us the very nature of God, and the nature of the worship true believers are to give to Him. God is a Spirit. What that tells me […]
“When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, whom do men say that I the Son of man am? And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets. He saith […]
