Dear Reader, The quick and easy answer to the question, “Why should I forgive?” must surely be, because God says that we must. The Bible is full of verses that bear this out but the one I want to discuss is Ephesians 4:31-32 because it concisely points out three things that are…
Dear One, I’m glad you asked. That’s a question many ask, and it needs to be settled in your heart so that you can have peace. So many of the issues that we struggle with emotionally, physically, and spiritually result from harboring bitterness, resentment and unforgiveness in our hearts. Think of planting…
Dear Friend, Why should I forgive? Well, the most straightforward answer is simply that Jesus said that we must forgive. “If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.” (Matthew 6:14-15, NLT) “Make…
“So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” ~ Matthew 6:34 I can’t breathe. A pounding fills my ears. Taking another single step requires momentous effort. Truth be told, I don’t know if I can do this. Life has overwhelmed me;…
Just like Mr. Martin Luther King Jr., I too have a dream. It might not seem as grand as his. No one but me and God might know it exists. But it’s there. Deeply routed in who I am, extending to every fiber of my being. My dream is a beautiful one, but dangerous. For…
A Christian mom asked me an awesome question recently. What do you say to your kid when they ask you,” What if the devil makes me do bad things?” Why is this a great question? One, it shows that children are always thinking, always reasoning. Two, it is easily answered with Scripture. Three,…
We all have cherished dreams and goals. We make detailed plans and then put in the time, effort, and sometimes money to make them happen, with the expectation that our plans will enable us to achieve our goals and realize our dreams. And then life happens. Twenty years ago, I got…
Oh Dear One, Just the fact that you are asking this question tells me that either you or someone you love is going through a difficult time. I’m sorry for any pain that accompanies such hard times. Unfortunately, while God created a perfect world free of pain and suffering, the choices Adam and…
How do you become “the best” at something? First, let me clarify what I mean by best. I don’t mean “better than everyone else.” That’s not even a reasonable goal in most cases. And even if you are the best at something, claiming that title isn’t humble, and a lack of humility is unattractive.…
Friend, This indeed is a difficult question. We see things from our human point of view, and ultimately, His ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts [Isaiah 55:8-9]. Because of this, I don’t think we can ever fully understand. I have said it before, but, this walk…
