A daily walk in faith, hope and love
John 21:15a After they had dined with Him, Jesus asked 'Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these? Whenever I have read today's text, I have been reminded that Peter was given the same number of opportunities to declare his love for Jesus as he had denied Him, three times. Yet, reading...

DAY 120 Throughout our walk in life, the consequences of the choices we make, whether those choices are made consciously, with knowledge or even in ignorance, will manifest. This is because every choice has an inherent after effect already inherent within it. Some are positive and others, negative. This accounts for the reason why many... Continue Reading →
DAY 110/366 1 Peter 5:7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. A song from earlier school years came to mind as I read today's text. It is one many Ghanaians would be familiar with:"cast your burdens, unto Jesus, for He cares for you, (repeat twice)Higher (repeat 7 times),Jesus is the... Continue Reading →

DAY 91 The actions of the soldier's in today's Gospel account is littered with red flags. They were not threatened, they were rather offered money to tell a lie which they accepted. However, it is the content of the lie they were made to tell that revealed a great desperation to save their own skin.... Continue Reading →
DAY 70/366 We read an interesting account today, one that brings up the the question 'was Jesus afraid?' Our text of interest from John 7:1-2, sheds light on an occasion where Jesus preferred not to travel through Judea because the Jews wanted to kill him. For a man of his influence, stature with the kind... Continue Reading →
DAY 68/366 While cycling to school this morning, I encountered two instances where cars did not stop at zebra crossings despite the presence of pedestrians. The expectation or general norm at these points is for the vehicle to yield to the pedestrian. While this happens perhaps 90% of the time, there is proportion where it... Continue Reading →
