Though I’m not a Bible scholar nor am I a theologian, I noticed that Scripture usually talks about God’s mighty right hand but rarely about God’s hands, or left hand, as if God has one hand.  I believe that God has both hands, but He uses the saving might of His right hand only on…

As mere humans, we all have experienced moments in life when we wish we could have done things differently. And as we get older, we realize that many of the things we placed much emphasis on were trivial, and the things we thought were insignificant are actually essential for our growth.  I have also realized…

It took me years to realize the huge difference between God choosing someone to do something and when that person chooses to do it on their own. Some achievements may look good and feel good, but if God was never part of them, they are accomplished in vain. Furthermore, I have also realized that a…

It is interesting how we can spend many years with ourselves and still don’t know who we are, and what we are truly capable of, both positively and negatively. Also, it is interesting that God refuses to manipulate us but patiently waits for us. He would let us plan and do our own thing until…

“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of My Father who is in heaven. On that day, many will say to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many…

He (Jesus) said to them: Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to. Luke 13:24 Growing up, I used to think that the narrow way meant poverty, and poverty was a prerequisite for heaven. Which means, unless I’m on…

Matthew 14: 26-33 NIV When the disciples saw Him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear. But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” Lord, if it is you, Peter replied, tell me to come to you on the…
