What It Means To Have True Wealth
One person pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth. Proverbs 13:7, NIV How do you define wealth? Is it something that you can buy, touch, or see? Or is it something that you can feel and take with you even through eternity? Sometimes, we think that we are not rich enough because of the material things that we can’t possess or buy. We thought that the only way for us to feel comfortable and happy was for us to have more money. It’s not that money is bad, it’s just sometimes, we already put our trust and security on the temporary…

Romans 6:14, NIV
For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace. Romans 6:14, NIV You are under God’s grace; it means that you are no longer a slave to sin. You are now free to do God’s will. Please don’t waste your freedom by following the selfish desires in your heart. Don’t be easily tempted by the temporary pleasures of this world. Set your eyes on things above. Focus on Jesus and let His sacrifice remind you of the cost that He needed to pay so that you will experience eternity with Him. Let the grace that He gave lead you to the…

Romans 3:23, NIV
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. Romans 3: 23, NIV We all fall short of the glory of God. Sin is in our blood. No one is righteous apart from those who believe in Jesus. This is the reason why we need God’s salvation. We need the grace of God to redeem us, and we can only experience it in the arms of our Savior, Jesus Christ. Apart from Him, we will never experience real life. It’s Him who can lead us to eternity. Our good deeds and…

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…

Try to Live this Life with an Eternal Perspective
You can’t stay in this world forever, but you can absolutely spend eternity with your Heavenly Father. So don’t treat this life as if it’s nothing.

You need His precious blood to cleanse and purify your soul. He is the only One who can take you to…

I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats this bread will live forever.

He alone can quench the thirst in your heart. The riches of this world may temporarily give you pleasure, but it…

Day 331 – Mark 14: 65
Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him. Mark 14: 65, NIV Jesus Christ suffered even though He is perfect and pure. He was beaten without justifiable reason. He endured the pain because He wanted to please God and save us from hell. That’s how great and awesome His love is. Imagine, He offered His life so we can spend eternity with Him. No human being can do it. We even find it difficult to serve others because we tend to expect something in return. But our Savior never leaves us alone.…
