In the past few months, my local church has journeyed through a heavy season of sorrow and loss. Three beloved members passed away in quick succession. The last two deaths occurred just weeks apart. We prayed together earnestly, standing in faith and asking God for their healing. As each sad announcement came, honest questions arose. Why did God not heal them? Why did these wonderful people, who were so loved by their families and so devoted to their faith, succumb to their illnesses in...

We live in societies that often demand evidence before action and certainty before commitment. Daring to believe can feel like a radical, even reckless act. Yet, for the Christian believer, faith is not merely a comforting ideal but a call to action,  a leap into the arms of a God who sees beyond our doubts and fears.

One of the most striking biblical accounts of this tension between skepticism and faith is found in the story of Nathanael. When Philip excitedly told Nathanael that...

I grew up in a family that attended church out of tradition rather than conviction. My first real encounter with Jesus came through a Christian teacher who invited me to church, where I heard a message unlike anything I’d experienced before. When the call to follow Jesus was made, I responded, though I didn’t fully understand what was happening. Still, I knew something had changed within me. I began to read the Bible, finding excitement in passages and truths I’d never heard before. For...

As I was praying today, I was reminded of a poignant question posed by the Psalmist in Psalm 8:4: “What is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?”

To fully grasp the depth of this inquiry, we must look at the preceding verses in Psalm 8, attributed to David. At the beginning of the Psalm, David praises God with enthusiasm, “LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!” 
(Psalm 8:1). 

He then marvels at the...

As I grow older, my first reflections of each day is that of gratitude to God for giving me the opportunity to witness the day. I have come to realise that each day is a gift; no one is guranteed the next day. As my lips utter the words, “Thank you Lord for a brand new day”, my thoughts gravitate to God’s goodness.

Lately, I began to think about what the goodness of God means to me. The first time we see the word ‘good’ in the Bible is in Genesis when God began the work of creation....

When the prophet Samuel anointed David as king in 1 Samuel 16, it marked the beginning of a remarkable journey—but not the kind we would expect. David didn’t ascend immediately to the throne. Instead, he entered into years of hardship, betrayal, hiding, and spiritual testing. This period—David’s wilderness experience—wasn’t a detour from his destiny. It was preparation for it.

For many of us, the wilderness represents seasons of waiting, uncertainty, and suffering. It’s that place...

It is so easy for us as Christians to blur the line between seeking more from God and seeking more of God. 

In our walk with God, it is natural to bring our needs before Him. Jesus Himself taught us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). God is not opposed to us asking for things—we are His children, and He delights in caring for us (Matthew 7:11). But problems arise when our relationship with Him becomes primarily transactional—when our prayers are...

Have you ever felt like there’s more to life than what you’re experiencing right now? More than the routines, the responsibilities, and the daily grind?

That inner tug isn’t just wishful thinking—it’s a divine reminder that you were created for something greater. As Christians, we were never meant to live average, aimless lives. We are God’s workmanship, intentionally crafted for a unique purpose.

The apostle Paul reminds us of a powerful truth in his letter to the Ephesians:...

I was walking past my gym the other day, when something on a billboard caught my attention. It boldly declared, "A World Without Anxiety and Fear. Live The Life You Want," followed by a phone number to call. For a moment, I paused and thought, “Can anyone really guarantee a world without anxiety and fear?” It seemed like an attractive promise, one that many would probably desire. But could it truly be achieved?

As I continued walking, I found myself shaking my head in mild amusement,...

When President Trump of the United States of America was campaigning for the presidency, one of the things he promised was to end the 3-year war between Russia and Ukraine. He guaranteed that he could end the war within 24 hours. It’s been over a month, and he is nowhere near fulfilling that promise. I am not making this statement to slight the President in any way but rather to state that no one can guarantee peace except God.

Throughout history, world leaders have promised peace...
