NOTHING IS WASTED WITH GOD

Reference: Acts 8:1-8In life's circumstances, situations and even what we may describe as displacements and shifts, God has a way of routing good things through them. Everything is thus an opportunity for God to make himself known. He stays true to the words 'all things work together for the good of those that love God... Continue Reading →

FRUITLESS PURSUITS

John 21:3 Simon Peter saith unto them, I go a fishing. They say unto him, We also go with thee. They went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; and that night they caught nothing. For starters, the seven disciples mentioned in today's Gospel were standing by the sea of Tiberias. Such was their proximity... Continue Reading →

CRUSHED UNDER THE WEIGHT

John 3:12 If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? Core among the principle of data protection is a statement that sounds simple, yet when ignored, can have significant repercussions: "information should be released solely on a need to know basis"....

FAITH IS BOLD, NOT RECKLESS

John 11:53-54 So from that day on they plotted to take his life. Therefore Jesus no longer moved about publicly among the people of Judea. Instead he withdrew to a region near the wilderness, to a village called Ephraim, where he stayed with his disciples. If there is one thing Jesus knew, it was the... Continue Reading →

TURNING TO THE GOD OF MERCY

Reference: Luke 18:9-14We read the story of the Pharisee and tax collector who enter the temple to pray. The Pharisee approaches God, head up, boasting in his capacity and ability to complete spiritual activities. The tax collector, however, assumes the posture of a broken man who looks towards a merciful God. And as the Psalmist... Continue Reading →

THAT IT MAY BE WELL WITH YOU

The two parts of today's text are connected by the preposition "And" hence it reads ' But this command I gave them: ‘Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people.[AND] walk in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.’(Jeremiah 7:23) Just...

MATURING FAITH

Mark 10:15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein. When an infant raises their arms towards a parent, they expect to be picked up and when they cry, they expect soothing.  When a child receives a promise from an adult,... Continue Reading →

LET GO AND LET GOD

Jeremiah 17:7 Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose trust is the LORD. 'Trust' as a legal term refers to an entity that manages assets for the benefit of another person called the beneficiary. Often the beneficiaries are entirely dependent on the decisions the Trust makes. Think of it as a near... Continue Reading →

THAT THEY ALL MAY BE ONE

Mark 3:25 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. In terms of a mathematical conversion or equivalency, 'cannot' is comparable to a probability of nearly zero'. In plain terms, "nearly no chance of an event occurring". Thus, if we rephrase Jesus' words in today's Gospel mathematically, He says "any kingdom divided... Continue Reading →
