SEEKING CLARITY

DAY 271 Luke 9:9 And Herod said, John have I beheaded: but who is this, of whom I hear such things? And he desired to see him. Herod found himself perplexed [completely baffled, puzzled and clueless]. The reason for this was because he was receiving conflicting information. It was as though his channels of communication...

POWER VRS AUTHORITY

DAY 270 Luke 9:1 Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases.

YOU HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES

DAY 256 Reference text: Colossians 3:1-11 There are moments when it clearly indicates that everything rests on the shoulders of God and we only have to be still and see Him at work.

DAY 206 As a creation, man is jealous- that is clearly something we picked up from our creator. Men therefore relish the acknowledgements that folllow an achievement. Hence, one of the hardest betrayals any person can endure is when another takes the credit for what is perceived as 'their effort and hardwork'. It is like... Continue Reading →

NURTURE WHAT YOU HAVE

DAY 199 Exodus 2:3 But when she could no longer keep him hidden, she made a basket out of reeds and covered it with tar. She put him in the basket and placed it in the tall grass along the edge of the Nile River. We read about the birth of Moses today, paying particular... Continue Reading →
