I, am a slave to Jesus Christ and brother to James, writing to those loved by God the Father, called and kept safe by Jesus Christ. Relax, everything’s going to be all right; rest, everything’s coming together; open your hearts, love is on the way!- Jude 1:1-2 Currently, we are living in such uncertain times. However, it is beautiful to…
What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?- Romans 8:31 In Christ, we are a new creation. We need to let go of our old do-it-yourself life. The best thing to do is to give it a decent burial. We wrestle with our emotions during times of struggle and despair.…
Proverbs 4:21- “Let [my words] not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.” The fan in my living room was making a squeaky noise this entire day. It was very irritating at first but then I got used it. However, while putting myself to sleep in the night, the noise became so clear that it…
Jesus said to him, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow me!” John 21:22 In this busy and short-sighted world, we live in, we think that we always fall short of something. We look at the new car our neighbour bought, or the promotion our colleague received, right from…
“For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?” – Matthew 5:46 It is so difficult to practise love; a love which doesn’t keep a record of the wrongs. God loves us even when we fail Him. He waits for us to repent. But what if we…
“If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” – James 1:5 God waits for us to come to him. It is so rewarding when after an entire struggle of figuring things out for yourself, you are so tired and can still go back…
“Show me your ways, Lord Teach me your path” – Psalms 25:4 Christianity is not a religion but a relationship with the Lord. It is through the sacrifice paid by the blood of Christ that we have been saved. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish,…
And he spoke to the children of Israel, saying, When your children shall ask their fathers in time to come, saying, What mean these stones? – Joshua 4:21 It is overwhelming to live in times of a pandemic and times of uncertainty. God in different ways reveals our sinful behaviours and gives us a chance to repent. There are times…
James 5:8, NIV: “You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near.” In this fast-paced generation, we are so used to getting everything instantaneously. Right from Eno, which cures acidity in 6 seconds to a handwash which claims to scrub your hands clean in 20 seconds. In our careers especially, we get so busy with trying…
“But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.” – Ephesians 2:4-5 It can be so easy to fall into the trap of self-illusion and self-righteousness. Our good looks, our perfect ways, our talents and gifts; so easy…
