As I conclude my time in the book of Daniel, I must say it has been a delight to study the book. Unlike other times when I have read it, this time among the many points I got from the book, the humility of Daniel and the matchless wisdom of God were by far theContinue reading “The mercy of God”

Humility: the portion of the Christian
It has been a month since my last post. Life got busy and sadly, I was not able to set time aside to write nor was I in the capacity to do so. However, in all this busyness, I am thankful that the Lord was continually with me, He never left me and unlike me,Continue reading “Humility: the portion of the Christian”
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”
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”
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”
Waiting for the Lord’s Return
I have recently started reading the book of Revelation and every time I do, it seems the book opens to me in a new way. While I am not yet deep in the book, I thought it would be interesting to share what I have noticed so far in the first two chapters and howContinue reading “Waiting for the Lord’s Return”
Fighting for the word
A key attitude of the early followers of Christ, particularly his apostles was their high regard for the teachings of Christ. Many of them spent years devoting themselves to the teaching of Christ and ensuring the churches remained faithful to it amidst new ways of thinking that were springing up. Paul, Peter and Jude, toContinue reading “Fighting for the word”
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!”
