1 KINGS 3:16-28 (A WISE RULING) There is so much to unpack from this passage of Scripture, but I will go in the direction that I am led to. Also, I must say that there is a greater level of sacrifice when you let go of something that belongs to you versus when you let…

We live in a world where many are so broken, fragile, and cold. Many are self-seeking and are careless about the unfortunate. Most people are unreliable, and nothing in this world seems certain. It seems like there is a bit of dishonesty in almost every industry, especially in the food industry. At times I wonder…

Just because we can plan certain things such as a vacation, birthday party, graduation, baby shower, or a wedding, we think we have everything under control because our plans usually go as expected. However, we tend to forget that the only reason we can do all these things is because we are allowed to. This…

We often hear people say that God’s answers can be a yes, no, or not yet. And we often talk about when He says yes or not yet. When He says ‘yes’, we get excited, and when He says, ‘not yet’, we become impatient. But what about when His answer is no? I don’t remember…

No matter what we do in life, we will always find ourselves involved in some routines. It is not that routines are bad; the question is, are we engaging ourselves in the right ones? I remember a time when I used to go to a restaurant daily to use their Wi-Fi. I became so familiar…

Many of us grew up in churches where we were taught that God is mean and angry. We were given passages of Scripture taken out of context to support this false interpretation of God. As a result, we developed, even in our adult years, a false view of God that often interferes with our relationship…

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…
