An unknown hour - parable of the 10 virgins

  Hello Friend! Today's post is a gentle reminder that we should keep watching and stay prayerful, may the grace of God always abound for us. God bless you!

Finding peace

Hello friend! Unfinished assignments, pending tasks, difficult targets, stressful jobs, relationship issues, fear of being broke, health issues, the list seems to be endless. Life is beautiful, but we must agree that there are challenges at different phases and times in our lives.  Contrary to what you may believe about finding peace in hard times, today’s publication is an encouragement that peace is actually not far fetched.  Let’s see what the Bible says in Philippians 4:6-7. Take away “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭41‬:‭10‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Mindful speaking

Hello friend! Have you ever been hurt by how badly someone spoke to you, that it made you think less of yourself? Being mindful about the way we speak is very important and we are going to look at interesting lessons from the Bible about being mindful with our words.  Proverbs10:19 Too much talk leads to sin. Be sensible and keep your mouth shut. Keeping quiet allows space for reflection and prevents unnecessary conflicts or mistakes. It’s a reminder that wisdom often lies in restraint. Proverbs 13:3 Those who control their tongue will have a long life; opening your mouth can ruin everything.  By managing our words carefully, we can avoid trouble and maintain peace. However, speaking impulsively or carelessly can cause damage, lead to misunderstandings, and create conflict. Proverbs12:18 Some people make cutting remarks, but the words of the wise bring healing.  Our words hold the power to either to harm or to heal, so we should use them with wisdom and care. Ephesians 4:...

“In everything”

Hello Friend! Giving thanks in everything means that even when things are not looking good, you should still be thankful. Imagine a narrative of someone who just lost everything they had within the twinkling of an eye; with all of the turmoil going on in their head, do you think it will be easy to be thankful at that point? We may be going through a difficult time in our lives, but cultivating a habit of gratitude can make things a lot easier. Here is how: Here is how: Remember that God cares for you so much and His thoughts towards you are good. Read Jeremiah 29:11. Look deep into your life, there are many thousands of blessings you never recognized. Read Psalms 77:11-12. Be mindful that things will get better and shift your focus away from the hurts, guilts, and things that went wrong. Read John 14:27. Make thanksgiving a habit. Take some time out of each day to thank God, worship Him and glorify Him for how faithful He is. Read Psalms 106:1. Trust God’s plan, because His ...

Pray for those plans!

  Hello Friend! Read: Matthew 11:28 There is goodnews for you today, guess what it is? Read on to find out! Do you ever feel like life is unfair to you? you ever feel like you are all alone? Dealing with your troubles all by yourself Because no one truly understands Sometimes, it really feels like no one understands Because they don't seem to know about the battles you are fighting  They keep you to talk about your problems,  But the last person you told still made it look like you are making a big deal out of nothing Yes, sometimes people don't get how hard it hits you Days you are fighting to stay sane, but you just have to show up smiling and jiggy Out there, many are only interested in things that amuse them How boring it will be to tell a story of your burdens  Days you are back home and you are lost in thoughts  The swiftness of the calendar makes you doubt dates  But each passing day definitely counts  And here you are, not knowing what you want...
