Proverbs 4:7 says: “Wisdom is supreme. Get wisdom. Yes, though it costs all your possessions, get understanding.”
In some cases, getting understanding may cost you all of your possessions. I remember so many times that I had to abandon plans that I expanded so much energy and resources to build after finding out that it was not God’s will. In fact, even Jesus said, "Anyone who puts a hand to the plow and then looks back is not fit for the...

Have you ever feel so tired (Physically, mentally, emotionally) that you just felt like giving up?
We all feel like that sometimes, but I just wanted to share something that Jesus said to us that can help you when you feel like that.
Its found in Matthew 11:28-30, where were we read:
Jesus said “Come to me, all of you who are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you. Let me teach you, because I a...

There once was a programmer who created a video game. When he designed it is was perfect and all the characters in the game lived forever in peace avoiding dangers. However, one day a virus started to spread in the program and the game became corrupted. The characters stopped responding to the controller commands and hurt/killed themselves as a result. There were a few characters in the game that would still respond to the controller but not fully and they eventually died as well. Eventually,...

Oftentimes, we as christians have the tendency to think: "I can sin a little, cause the majority of my conduct is good; therefore, the clean outweighs the stink." This reasoning may be found in us whether we are new believers or Christians that have known the Lord for awhile. When we use the sins in our former life as a comparison to justify the sins we commit now in Christ, we fail to realize how much of a destructive power even a little sin may have in our lives. For as it is written in the...

I had an interesting conversation with my cousin today on the topic of religion, sin, and other terms/obstacles that hinder some of us from coming to know God more intimately. As a result, I have decided to make these topics the subject of this and upcoming blogs as they are probably one of the most controversial, if not the most common, reasons why people say they just can't be cool with Jesus.
First of all, who is this man we call ...

For a long time now, I have been unproductive in various aspects of my life, namely: spiritually, occupationally, physically, socially, and mentally. Therefore, I think it is time to make a resolution to improve in these areas. However, I must soberly note that no amount of resolutions will change a course of living without the will power to follow through. We often look to external means as solutions whether it be praying to God, taking prescriptions, seeking encouragement fro...

Bishop, Reverend, Father, Pastor, Sensei, & so on. Why do we feel that we have to add a title before our names in order for us to be identified as a minister of the gospel? I've even heard one brother say in the middle of a sermon, "Don't call me 'brother!' I'm your pastor!"Jesus was so much against this that He spoke about it specifically while here on earth. It is written:

There are many lessons that we can learn from our master, Jesus Christ, particularly in the area of Evangilizing. I have decided to share a few lessons that I've learned from a famous account in the fouth chapter of the book of John, where Jesus interacts with a Samaritan woman by a well. I have listed the verses below, and the corresponding lessons that one can glean from them. Please follow along in your bibles:
John 4:6 - Throughout o...
