We, humans have the tendency to be our own gods. The advancement of technology and the many exploits we have been able to accomplish as a race often make us think we are so knowledgeable and above others in all that we do and that puffs us up. Of all the creatures that the LordContinue reading “God Almighty”

God the Rewarder
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”
Bearing Fruit
“We are people of habits!”, you might have heard it say before. The sooner a habit is formed the stronger is its grip on you. Habits also take time to become one, they do not just form overnight. A habit, as defined by Merriam-Webster is “an acquired mode of behavior that has become nearly orContinue reading “Bearing Fruit”
The discipline of the word
There are many spiritual disciplines that we know are good for us Christians yet we suck at. Prayer is one of them. In all honesty, when I see how we treat prayers I am not surprised at how our lives turn out to be. But, my post today is not about prayer, I will leaveContinue reading “The discipline of the word”
A call to die to self
As we get closer to the Easter celebration or Resurrection Sunday as some call it, I am reminded of the amazing sacrifice Jesus displayed on the cross and cannot help but think of his own call to us to follow him. Every time we have communion as believers, we remember what Christ did on theContinue reading “A call to die to self”

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”
Proverbs 31
I have been reading the book of Proverbs for the past month and it has now come to an end. As I finish reading this book, I cannot help but say a few words on the last chapter of the book. I don’t know much about the history of the compilation of the book ofContinue reading “Proverbs 31”
Laziness and Poverty
As I read the book of Proverbs, I find it odd the contrast of words that are put together. Often times I wonder if the writer did not mean a different set of words or if he made a mistake. But, as we know, nothing is a mistake in the word of God and ifContinue reading “Laziness and Poverty”
Wisdom from the Proverbs
The book of Proverbs is part of what is called “wisdom literature” of the bible which is composed of the books of Psalms, Job, Ecclesiastes, and Song of Solomon. Together, these books provide wisdom for living well this life. As Proverbs 1 says it exists “for attaining wisdom and discipline; for understanding words of insight;Continue reading “Wisdom from the Proverbs”
Being A Seeker
The older I get, the more I realize how everything that is worthwhile in life must be attained through patience, sacrifice, pain and endurance. What comes easily proves itself to be more ephemeral, it does not stand the test of time and only provides a quick enjoyment. I suppose this is the way God wantedContinue reading “Being A Seeker”
