What True Wealth Means
One person pretends to be rich, yet has nothing; another pretends to be poor, yet has great wealth. Proverbs 13: 7, NIV This world may treat material things as an indicator of wealth, but sometimes, a person may look rich physically but have nothing on the inside. They may pretend to have all the things they want, but deep down, their hearts say the exact opposite. On the other hand, there are people who pretend to be poor yet very rich on the inside. They are those who are very generous and enrich other people’s lives. Sometimes, we tend to respect those who look wealthy and disregard those who appear…

Day 241 – Philippians 4:9
Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. Philippians 4:9, NIV The book of Philippians was written by Apostle Paul to the congregation in Philippi.

Pray that God will give you these Kinds of Friends
A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that He had come home. They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and He preached the word to them. Some men came, bringing to Him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. Since they could not get Him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” Mark 2: 1-5, NIV…

You will know what Grace is when you finally receive God’s Forgiveness
It takes humility to receive the forgiveness of God. It’s not something that you earn, but all you need to do is open your heart and allow His love to come in. That’s how His grace works. He freely gives it to everyone without asking anything in return. It’s so powerful that it can change the way you see things and the way you love other people. Whether you believe it or not, what Jesus did on the cross is not just an act of love, but it’s how He released forgiveness. He gave us the chance to reconnect to the Father despite everything that we did. And that is…

Day 189 – John 5:14
Later Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, “See, you are well again. Stop sinning or something worse may happen to you.” John 5:14, NIV Jesus said these words to a man who was paralyzed for 38 years. He healed the man, and because of what Jesus did, He was able to walk again. And then He told him to stop sinning or else something worse might happen. This is a wonderful reminder for all of us. We need to focus on Jesus and do the things the please His name. Let’s remind ourselves that Jesus didn’t save us so that we can commit another sin. Instead,…
