On Abiding

This past week was tough. I was not in the best of shape physically and to make matters worse I had agreed to support a family member in some spiritual exercise so I had to be on my A-game. Unfortunately, I was just weak, physically, spiritually and mentally. I did not feel like pushing, inContinue reading “On Abiding”

The Cry to Abide

“May I abide in you”. That is the cry of my heart. Although, this is a touching cry and longing, it does not matter how pious my words are, it does not matter how true my words are, it does not matter how deep my words are, nor does it matter how heartfelt my wordsContinue reading “The Cry to Abide”

Legacy

This weekend, my church is celebrating its 110th anniversary! I know, it is a big deal, and it is on a personal level a privilege to be part of it. One thing I am most grateful for is the legacy it is leaving behind which is one of faithfulness in the Lord. Not many ofContinue reading “Legacy”

Looking to the Immutable One

“Trust and obey, for there’s no other way to be happy in Jesus but to trust and obey”. Such are the words from the nineteenth century hymn which are still so true today. If there is one thing we know as Christians, it is that we serve God and we answer to Him, not theContinue reading “Looking to the Immutable One”

Being Steadfast to the Lord

Convictions are a funny thing. They can make us take a 180 degree turn on a decision. They are crucial for life because they form the set of principles we live by. Convictions may take time to be formed but once they are formed, it is difficult to change them easily without extra effort. Interestingly,Continue reading “Being Steadfast to the Lord”

The New Thing

Prophecies have this particularity that they make you look forward to a thing, they increase your longing and expectation so that you do not grow complacent and give up. That is why, the Bible is filled with prophecies about what the Lord will do, the return of Christ and the judgement that is coming. Moreover,Continue reading “The New Thing”

Which Side are you On?

Despite the current trends of the world where nothing can ever be known for sure, the Bible is very clear. There is no confusion in that book whether it is gender, or marriage, sexuality, finances, race, you name it. There is a disparity that is quite flagrant between what the Bible teaches and what ourContinue reading “Which Side are you On?”

Victorious God

The book of Revelation is many things but boring! There is just so much going on in the book and the imageries that are painted, the description given of beings that are seen by the author John are almost impossible to picture. It is a book that makes you work your imagination for sure. WhatContinue reading “Victorious God”

Be Ready!

I was hopping on the bus this week and I saw on a young passenger’s bag a pin with the words “Be ready at all times” and I thought to myself, “isn’t that appropriate!” It is exactly what the Lord is asking us to do in these times. We have to be ready, that isContinue reading “Be Ready!”

More than a Saviour

The greatest act of love we know is from Jesus dying on the cross to save mankind from their sins. One of the reasons it is extraordinary is because Jesus died for his enemies, the ones who killed him. To all those who would believe in him, including his enemies, he gave a new life,Continue reading “More than a Saviour”
