 “Blessed is the man that WALKETH not in the counsel of the wicked, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor…and he shall be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that bringeth forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf doth not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” (Psalms 1:1-3)(My emphasis)There is something unique and peculiar to all living beings. Up from the moment we were born, every one of us has a  fingerprint so unique...

“Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;” (Romans 12:11)“The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.” (Proverbs 13:4)We all have desires. We all crave something. Whether we are content with the little we got or greedy for more, the point remains that we all want something. However often time, to acquire all we desire, we look to the other side of the scale. We focus on the...

 “…and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)Happy new year everyone. May this new year be our best one yet. I pray that we achieve all we genuinely set our hearts upon, In Jesus' Name. As we approach this new year, many of us are already planning to carry out the set plans for the year or the “traditional” resolutions, which there is absolutely...

Happy new year. Well, this is a rude awakening—an odd calling. It's mid-January and I'm wishing a new year; Like the anonymous Chinese that suggests that one should carry an umbrella even when the sky is clear, I'm simply doing my thing even if it's different. As years go by and by, we are often wired with the tradition of setting resolutions, goals, and other checklists. Now it's mid-month, how far have we gone?If every one of us reviews his or her past...

“Pride goeth before destruction, And a haughty spirit before a fall.” (Proverbs 16:18)2020 has been one of the toughest years so far. It features so many dramas, acts, scenes and stories. The biggest of all the dramas of the year is the corona virus pandemic. It killed people like flies. Many important people died, protests occurred, complete restructure of things, and list goes on…Of course, the year brought blessings to many as well as curses. It lifted...

We need a new lens through which we see the world  I don’t like to discuss this because this is not an acceptable subject. However, it is an important one. We may try our best to ensure that we circumspect the issue whenever we are dragged into it, however, we only break ourselves against the law as the law can’t be broken Living in the 21st century comes with a very broad advantages—a lot of privileges our forefathers never had a glimpse...
