The Word of God
Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Proverbs 30: 5, NIV If you are in the middle of a very dark season, and you can’t seem to find the light, come to God and take refuge in His word. You are not alone. God is speaking to you. Open your Bible and let His word penetrate your soul. His word is pure, and it has no error. So, if you think that what God is saying is not true in your life, then keep your faith and believe that His promises will come to pass. Whatever happens, the flawless word…

Seek the Word of God and Meditate on it
But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. Matthew 13:23, NIV We are so blessed because the word of God is always available for us. Unlike other countries, they are restricted from reading the scriptures. That’s why we should not take this privilege for granted. Just like good soil, let’s put God’s word in our hearts and let it produce crops that will glorify His name.

Rest is a Necessity
You need rest. Your body, mind, and soul need to be restored. If you don’t stop and take a pause, you will reap painful consequences in the end. This is the reason why rest is a necessity. God created it to be part of our lives. He proved it as very essential even in the very beginning. In the book of Genesis, you will read that God rested from all the work He had done on the seventh day. This is a powerful reminder for us to also do the same thing. Rest is not just about taking a break from work, but it’s deeper than that. For our bodies,…

Moments When I Forget About His Love

When problems try to consume my mind, that’s when I usually forget about His goodness in my life. That’s why, up until now, I’m still wondering what it truly feels like to genuinely follow Him. When I read the Bible, I learned about those people who chose to…

The People That Jesus Treated As Family Are Those Who Obey God’s Word
He replied, “My mother and brothers are those who hear God’s word and put it into practice.” Luke 8: 21, NIV Jesus said these words when His mother, Mary and His brothers came to see him. Someone told him that his earthly family was there waiting for him, but then Jesus said that those He considered as family are the ones who hear God’s word and put it into practice. Many of us would think that Jesus would give special privileges for His earthly family but in His eyes, the people that He treated as family are those who would obey God’s word. Being close to God isn’t just about…

Don’t just dwell on your own Understanding
It takes humility to accept the truth that you don’t know everything. It may seem like you’ve been through a lot of journeys in life, and you probably learned so many things, but that doesn’t give you the assurance that you will easily figure out the solutions to your next problems. You never really know what will happen next. You don’t know how this world works not until you ask the Creator Himself. So please don’t rely on your own understanding. Don’t focus on your own knowledge because God will prove to you that there is still so much more that you need to discover. Open your heart and allow…

Don’t let other People’s Action Destroy your Faith in God
Just because you receive unfair treatment from other people doesn’t mean God is not good to you. Remember that we all have the freedom to choose. Our Heavenly Father doesn’t want to control our actions or emotions. He gave us the ability to do what we want to do. That’s why you can’t blame Him if others fail to see your worth. It’s their choice. They just don’t see you the way God sees you. So instead of hating God for the negative things that people did, pray that He will give you the faith you need to keep going. Do not allow others to change the way you know…
