Blessed are the truly poor in spirit
If you’ve ever travelled to a developing country and see the truly poor; they will give you and I who are fortunate enough to live in the developed world a new appreciation of what it means to be poor. The truly poor have no advocate to help their plight of life. – The truly poor…

Don’t drink from bitter puddles, or addictive pools, drink from the river of life
If you’re thirsty, don’t drink from the disappointment of bitter pools or the unrelenting addiction of salty puddles. Drink from the river of life Himself, his name is Jesus.

The Great Commission is every believer’s privilege, not burden
Imagine walking with Jesus during His three years of public ministry as one of his disciples. Your life wouldn’t be the same. How could Peter return to his fishing job in the same way when he’s seen so many miracles. How could Matthew go back to being a tax collector knowing that he’s walked closely…

God has no grandchildren
There’s a difference between fathers and grandfathers, especially in the modern world. Let’s think for a moment about the fatherhood of God. I read a statement of what fatherhood means; Through almost every studied culture, fathers have assumed three primary roles: the protector, the provider, and the disciplinarian. Jesus teaches us how to pray and identify…

Be Still and Know God
Psalm 46:10 Be Still and know that I Am God. I watched a brilliant movie documentary on Michael J Fox called STILL and his struggle with Parkinson’s Disease for the past thirty plus years. I highly recommend watching it, very sobering. Here’s the link of the trailer on Apple TV Michael made reference to his…

Don’t judge, it’s a distraction
Leave the final judgement to God, everything else is just an observation. Jesus, in one short lesson, leaves the audience speechless. The crowd said, no one teaches like Jesus, he speaks like he knows what he’s talking about. Read all of Matthew chapter 7. Matthew 7: 28 When Jesus had finished saying these things,the crowds…

Jesus, the homeless social entrepreneur
If ever there was a person who walked on purpose, it was Jesus. At twelve years old, his parents lost him in their travels, but Jesus was not lost. Jesus was in the temple conversing with religious and social leaders discussing different spiritual and social issues. He was both inquisitive and wise at twelve years…

The Lord is my Shepherd, I lack nothing
Psalm 23 is without doubt one of the most comforting passages of the Bible, revealing the very essence of God’s nature. To appreciate this psalm, we must take it personally just like King David did. The opening verse says it all. The Lord is my Shepherd, I lack nothing. Meaning, God is committed to guiding…
