God Will Send His Help
Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. “Quick, get up!” he said, and the chains fell off Peter’s wrists. Acts 12:7,NIV Peter was arrested and put into prison when he experienced this supernatural moment. Who would have thought that an angel would appear and help him? This is one of the stories in the Bible that reminds us that God can do the impossible. He rescued Peter from death. He commanded His angels to help and guide Peter on his way out. At the same time, the church also prayed for him. Imagine,…

Dear God, Please give me the strength to hold on to your Promises
This life is not easy, Lord. Many times, I’m easily tempted to give up, especially when I experience pain in life. I am not a superhero who can solve all my problems.

I just find it so difficult to believe in your promises when negative things surround me. It seems so impossible. But even if I can’t see them yet, please give me the courage to still believe.…

Let this Pain Lord lead me to Receive Your Love

Since I started to treat you as my King, my life didn’t immediately change. I was faced with the hard reality that I needed to conquer the consequences of my wrong choices. It was not easy. There will be days when I just wanted to quit and do my own…

Don’t give Anyone the Responsibility to make you Happy
It’s not anybody’s job to make you happy. It’s your responsibility. So stop expecting other people to take away the loneliness in your heart. You are powerful enough to take charge of your own emotions. Happiness is a choice that you need to make every single day. It depends on how you see things and the situations around you. It’s not about what people did to you, but it’s how you see their actions that make you feel glad. You will be disappointed if you let somebody dictate your joy because nobody can do it but you. It’s like you are hiring a person with a job that is impossible…

Set your Priorities
You will not find it hard to set your boundaries if you know your priorities. Your work, family, friends, and above all, God Himself will demand time from you. That’s why you need to determine the things that are truly important in your life so that you can allocate enough resources to them. You will feel so exhausted if you will try to be there for everybody. You need to know your limitations and spend more time with the people that truly matter to you. At the end of the day, you will always come back to the reason why you are here. When your purpose is clear in your…
