Sometimes we feel compelled to respond to an offense against us by inflicting the same offense on the person who gave it to us. We want to “make them pay”. This form of resentment only sows poison in our relationships.
How much time do any of us have left in this life? When is it finally time to do what you know you are supposed to do? How long are we going to make God wait before we start working with Him on the plan He prepared for us?
We sing beautiful songs to our God, telling Him that we surrender ourselves to Him, that He is our King. But daily, is He our God or just one source among many others?
It’s easy to get distracted by our desires and dreams, or even by conflicts and problems. Besides, there is nothing wrong with working at these earthly things, but on the condition that you have first pursued God, daily.
Our Heavenly Father is so generous. When we follow His ways, He leads us into wonderful blessings. But let’s be careful, if we don’t take good care of these beautiful fruits of God, they can rot and poison our lives.
Everything God has created is wonderful. It is a way to remind us of God’s love and power. But we are His creation aswell: does our life lead those around us to praise God?

“Love is…” That is probably the most quoted passage in wedding ceremonies. It is viewed as the ultimate standard for romantic relationships. But are we right to associate it with marriage?
We are blessed to live in a time where technology allows us to hear all kinds of teachings and enjoy Christian music. But we must be careful with this comfort so that we don’t forget the sacredness of what we are doing.
We often talk about salvation as being freed from the grip of sin. And it is true! Yet Christians still seem to walk in slavery in some areas of their lives. Why?
