Listen Not To Answer But To Understand Other People
To answer before listening— that is folly and shame. Proverbs 18:13, NIV Sometimes, it’s easier to speak than to listen. When we are at the peak of our emotions, we can’t help but find a way to express and release them through our words. But this verse in Proverbs simply reminds us to pause and choose to listen even if it’s hard. Sometimes, it takes dying on the inside. You need to hold back the things that deeply disturb you in order for the other person to feel heard and respected. This is not an easy thing to do. Imagine, you need to constantly remind yourself not to speak back…

Acts 17: 26-27, NIV
From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us. John 17: 26-27, NIV God wants His people to reach for Him and find Him. He may not be far from us, but sin pushed us away from Him. Sometimes, we think that God doesn’t want us because we can’t feel His presence, but little do we know that His heart seeks…

Acts 4:23, NIV
All the believers were one in heart and mind. No one claimed that any of their possessions was their own, but they shared everything they had. Acts 4: 32, NIV This is a reminder for all of us that we shouldn’t create divisions between believers. When the disciples of Jesus were building the church, their souls stand united for the glory of God. They shared what they had. They didn’t feel entitled to the possessions that God allowed them to steward. Instead, they chose to release and gave them to those who are in need. Let’s always remember that Jesus is the center of every churches. This is not about…

If God calls you to do something, He knows you have what it takes
Some struggle to believe in themselves that they can do what they are called for. Sometimes, opportunities suddenly open before you, and although you want them, you fear not making them. You are afraid because you cannot predict what will happen. Your mind is always a step ahead of your present. It builds hypothetical situations that make you worry even more. If you look closely and pay more attention to your present, you will realize that your stress and worries aren’t really there. You do not need them at the moment. Because the thing that is holding you back is not yet happening. They are just thoughts. You are way…
