Recently in the country where I live there was a terrible power outage. The central electrical system that supplied light to basically everyone caught on fire and more than half of the population didn't have light in their homes. Shortly afterward, the water started to become filthy and well, when things of this sort happen we realize just how much we overlook things.  Thankfully, my family's house had a generator and we were able to have light and use the our stove (which had runs on gas, not electricity) but that's not really the point. See, it was very hot and I mean really, really hot. Since we're using a generator and almost no one has electricity we couldn't expect the WiFi service to be working either. Long story short, the power came back late the following day. I know other people have undergone worser things than this for longer periods of time but I personally felt the need to bring this into the post I have for all of you guys today. Most of the ti...

Being a Christian is somewhat like walking in a single-file line. You've got a person in front of you and a person behind you. Now, it isn't a race, if you try to look like you're the finest-walking person in the line you just might trip over a rock called pride. But the thing is, you have to keep walking here's why:  1: If you stop the person behind you might also stop as well causing a whole lot of ruckus amongst the rest of the people in the line.  2: The only way you can keep going is just walking. If you stop walking you have to get out of the line or you're going to hinder the rest of the people (Not to mention yourself)  Don't stop walking! Sometimes the way might seem rough but here's what awaits you in the finish line:  7  Whoever has ears, let them hear  what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious,  I will give the right to eat from the tree of life,  which is in the paradise  of God. Revelation 2:7...

Forgiveness.  This 10-letter word can have a lot of power when you think about it. Forgiving comes easily to some, meanwhile to others...not so much. Here I listed the Top 5 benefits and joys of forgiving, go ahead and check it out!  1 : You'll feel Better I know, I know, this one's a 'classic' but it just so happens to be quite true. Forgiving someone can help take that awful wight you've been feeling lately off your shoulders. It really helps to spend some time in the Bible and speaking to God through prayer, it will shed a LOT of light to help you through whatever situation you're facing. Plus,  "...let not the sun go down upon your wrath:"  Ephesians 4:26 You also might want to solve problems before they get worse. After all, there's nothing better than going to bed with a clear conscious and a guilt-free mind!  2: It'll help you move on Most of the time when bad situations happen and we don't forgive the people wh...

📖 Read 1 John 4: 7-21 We've constantly heard of fairytale love but today, we're going to learn about another kind of love, God's love. 1 John 4:8 states, "He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love." So much for the idea of an old dude in the sky that's totally heartless and enjoys blasting people with lighting. 1 John 4:8 destroyed that mindset entirely in just a mere eleven words. But what about us? How about that lady that's always up in my business, I can just ignore her right? Wrong. You can't ignore her, you have to love her. 1 John 4:20 says, "If a man say, I love God and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen how can he love God whom he hath not seen?" Ouch. That's a lot of tough words to swallow. In this verse John is not just talking about our siblings from our parents but also about our brothers (and sisters!) in Christ. That includes your awesome friend fr...
