One of the Verse of the Day this week from the YouVersion bible app was “Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God who is our salvation. Selah.” (Psalms 68:19). The word or phrase that caught my attention in that verse was “who daily bears our burden” signifying that God Himself dailyContinue reading “Quit striving after the wind”

Fight!
I feel like I am wrestling with God. Actually, it’s not just me but my family and I are, at least that’s the feeling. On a personal level, I believe I have been on this “in-between” phase where it seems nothing is going on, yet much is happening for a while. It’s quite an interestingContinue reading “Fight!”
Living with Hope
The world we live in is full of surprises, you never know what you’ll get. I suppose for those of us that are in Christ, it’s only in heaven that we’ll be able to realize our rest and also understand what was going on/what we went through. For now, we get to enjoy whatever lotContinue reading “Living with Hope”
In the Storm
I have not had a chance to write this week as I would normally due to unforeseen events. However, I wanted to declare the goodness of God over this past week in my life. You see, my family is going through a challenging time and it seems attacks are coming from everywhere. Yet, in theContinue reading “In the Storm”
The Ways of the Lord
If you surrender your life to the Lord, expect to be challenged. This is a given, for your desires will often be in conflict with the will of the Lord. Also, because His ways are not our ways (Isaiah 55:9), it is clear that His commands will not seem right to you upfront. They couldContinue reading “The Ways of the Lord”

Trusting in the Lord is what the Christian should do. There is no other way around it. The fact that the bible repeats it often also means it is not the norm yet it is crucial if we want to live under the kingship of the Lord Jesus Christ. Something that I have come toContinue reading “When life throws you a curveball”
Pressing On
There’s nothing more annoying to me than to hear the words “keep going” when I’m tired or am ready to give up. For example, when I’m exercising and the exercise is demanding and it seems the instructor is prolonging the exercise and by extension my pain or discomfort, all I want to do in thatContinue reading “Pressing On”
The Armour of God
Believers in the Lord are at war the moment they accept Christ Jesus as their Lord and saviour. Indeed, when we submit to the Lordship of Christ, we immediately become enemies of the world and the kingdom of darkness. For God rescued us from the dominion of darkness of which we belonged when we wereContinue reading “The Armour of God”
Love Righteousness
If there is a theme in the book of Proverbs is the call to love righteousness and everything that it entails. We learn that the righteous loves wisdom, seeks after it; the righteous loves understanding, he goes after it; the righteous loves justice; the righteous loves rebuke for he knows it is good for him;Continue reading “Love Righteousness”
Dependence on the Holy Spirit
This is a topic that I must confess I know nothing about however, this kept showing in my bible reading this week and it caught my attention. What does it mean to be dependent on the Holy Spirit? Why be dependent on the Holy Spirit? What is the expectation of Christians vis-à-vis the Holy Spirit?Continue reading “Dependence on the Holy Spirit”
