Jesus had haters during his life, but people doubting who he was did not change who he was. Jesus did not leave the question of who he was unanswered, but a lot of people missed it. They did not want to believe in him or listen to what he said. Sometimes we want God to …
The treasures of this world do not last, so storing them up is fruitless. If you live seeking this world's treasures, even if you find them, you will miss out on the most precious and valuable thing. God has eternal life with him in store for his children, which is much more valuable than any …
God has many names. It is good to call him by his different names, to praise his greatness and to remind yourself who God is, who you are calling upon. Every part of the day is in God's hands. Everything that happens is subject to God's commands and summons. This is the God you call …
God has all things in his hands. All resources and mighty strength are his. God will never leave you. He will always be with you, no matter where you go. The Almighty God will direct your steps even if you mess up or make mistakes or choose the wrong direction. He will still be your …

God sees your motives and your priority. Sometimes life gets busy, and whatever's in front of us becomes first priority; but God wants to be our first priority. Reflection is powerful. Even if in the moment we do not make the right choice or have the right priority, taking time to reflect can help us …
God has a calling and a purpose for your life. Your past and what you do before stepping into your calling prepares you for what's to come. Jesus took fishermen to fish for men. They understood the concept of what they were going to do because of what they did before, but Jesus changed their …

Humility can look like you are falling behind others, but it is actually choosing to have different priorities. Jesus' example shows that God as man came …
