A daily walk in faith, hope and love
Reference text: Luke 17:11-19 The ten lepers described in the Gospel text were something else. A careful look at this story and you would see extreme boldness, and would they not? For context, even in contacting Jesus, they maintained their distance and shouted out for mercy. So when we see them set off immediately after... Continue Reading →
Romans 11:29 For the gifts and the calling of God are irrevocable The amplified version adds an even longer context to today's text which says '[For He does not withdraw what He has given, nor does He change His mind about those to whom He gives His grace or to whom He sends His call]....

Reference text: Luke 12:1-7 Luke 12:7 But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows. I recall in high school the frequency of roll calls, sometimes even at odd times. The intention behind them was to review the headcount of students to... Continue Reading →

DAY 74/366 John 8:54 Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’ I find it interesting how 'God' has so many facets such that unless one makes the conscious effort to plunge deeper, all the knowledge they possess...

DAY 65/366 I have been stuck in a loop today on the words found in Psalm 2:4 " The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them."
