When it comes to loving the Lord, in the bible, king David is my model. I do not know anyone else that had such a deep love for the Father as David had. No wonder he was called a man after God’s own heart. What always impressed me with David is how unsatisfied he wouldContinue reading “God the Rewarder”

More on the love of God
The love of God is a vast topic and it can be discussed endlessly. There is always more to learn and know about it. In fact, the more you learn about it, the more you realise you do not understand. Paul in the book of Ephesians tells us that it is high, wide, deep, long;Continue reading “More on the love of God”
The pursuit of the Father
God is love. This is a popular saying irrespective of the circle you find yourself in: Christian or secular. However, as popular as that statement is, it does not negate the fact that it is also the most misunderstood statement about God. The bible tells us that God is love, which means the very definitionContinue reading “The pursuit of the Father”
Why we miss the salvation of the Lord
You have heard it say many times that God’s ways are not our ways and that as far as the heavens are from the earth so are His thoughts from ours (Isaiah 55:8-9). However, even with such knowledge in the back of our minds, we still find ourselves dealing with God like He is ourContinue reading “Why we miss the salvation of the Lord”

Give thanks to the Lord
There is so much we can give thanks for to the Lord. I believe, “Give thanks to the Lord” (Psalm 107:1) is one of the easiest commands that exist because we have reasons to give thanks. For a people who love to be given explanations for what we are being told to do, this shouldContinue reading “Give thanks to the Lord”
Inexhaustible God
The idea that God is inexhaustible is one that is certainly true and baffles me all the time. To think that we will be spending eternity getting to know our God forever is truly amazing. In fact, it is not something our mind can even fathom because we are finite beings and we show ourContinue reading “Inexhaustible God”
Reflections on 2022

Many things have happened around the world, we have had to still juggle with the continued effects of Covid-19, added to it instability in many nations and a war.

Praising God
One of the beauties of the Psalms is that it exhorts us to praise God, not only that, the Psalms draw our hearts to praising God. Through the Psalms, we get to see real examples, life cases of the psalmist going through difficulties like us; we get to see real emotions, identify with them andContinue reading “Praising God”
The Lord is on your side
Much of what I read in the word this week seemed to focus on having the Lord on your side, on having the Lord as your fortress and on having the Lord as a sure help in times of trouble. The word of God is a well of knowledge which provides understanding to the simple.Continue reading “The Lord is on your side”
