True Peace
For years, I had searched for peace, but I found only striving, doubt, and inner unrest. I quoted Scriptures, performed well, and tried to look composed, but deep down, I was breaking.

Not the Good Samaritan: When We Walk Past the People God Sends
The Parable of the Good Samaritan is often told to inspire kindness, but what if we’re not the story's hero? What if we’re the ones who pass by... or worse, those who wound?

Using Your Godly Imagination
Many Christians today feel stuck, called by God, but full of doubt, with ideas, and afraid to act. In this post, I open up about my struggle with insecurity, the pressure to copy others, and the temptation to rely on tools like AI instead of trusting the Holy Spirit. We were never meant to borrow the world’s creativity. As believers, we carry the mind of Christ and a God-given imagination that can do far more than we think possible. If you've ever questioned your calling or felt like your creativity doesn’t measure up, this will challenge you to lay down the lies and pick up what God has already placed in you.

Dying to Self: The Path to True Fulfillment in Jesus
Who in their right mind would ever consider dying to live a fulfilled life? It's the total opposite of what the world says. For someone to die to self is considered weak. Society doesn't teach this. They don't teach that your life is not your own. The world's attitude is very self-seeking: what can I get to benefit me?

Forgiveness in the Face of Adversity
The teachings of Jesus serve as a reminder to His followers about the significance of compassion and mercy in their lives. In the same way that God shows mercy and forgiveness to us, we are also called to show that same grace and extend it to others.
Forgiveness, the sorrow of God and the hope of redemption
These verses paint a vivid picture of a solemn moment, where the air hangs heavy with divine sorrow. It is a pivotal moment in the biblical narrative, a turning point that demands our contemplation. As we delve into the depths of humanity, we are confronted with the vastness of our moral failings
Forgiveness, plank and speck.
Christians are afraid of the unknown of what could happen rather than trusting in God? Because of this, they look at someone else's sin rather than their own. I was one of those people, quick to judge at every opportunity; I looked at other Christians and thought, how could they be doing this and worship God as well?
