Recently I found myself at the local sprinkler park with my five year old daughter. She was so excited to cool down on a hot summer day, and run in and out of the fountains of water. She was literally shouting for joy, and as I watched her I couldn’t help but be filled with […]
The Bible tells us something incredible in Ephesians 2:10 – “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Let that sink in for a moment. There are good works that God has literally prepared in advance for you to do. It’s […]
I frequently hear people say things like, “There are many paths to God.” Or “There are many ways to get to heaven, and as long as you are sincere, it doesn’t really matter what you believe.” Now, I don’t doubt the sincerity of those who say such things, but is sincerity the all-important consideration when […]
Jesus doesn’t sugar-coat anything. On the eve of his crucifixion he told the apostles that they shouldn’t expect life to be comfortable and easy. He said: “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world” […]
C.S Lewis once said, “Forgiveness is a beautiful word until you have someone to forgive.” How true that is! Before I get into the how of forgiveness, it’s important to set the foundation for that by briefly talking about what forgiveness is and what it is not. 1) Firstly, forgiveness is not the absence of […]
Anatomy tells us that the tongue is no more than a 70 gram, 8.3 cm slab of mucous membrane wrapped itself around an array of muscles that helps you to taste, chew, and talk. But when the Bible talks about the tongue it is talking about what the tongue represents: our words. Proverbs 18:21 says, […]
You may have heard of Nick Vujicic. His story is quite inspiring, to say the least. Nick was born without arms or legs, yet he can write, “I am truly blessed. I am ridiculously happy.” (Nick Vujicic, Life without Limits, Waterbrook , 2012, p.21) Though he prayed for many years for God to give him […]
As the numbef of victims of Covid-19 continue to increase, it has caused many to ask, “Where is God in all this suffering?” That is no small question. In fact, maybe it a question on your heart and mind today. Over 700 years before Christ’s death on the cross, Isaiah wrote prophetically about the suffering […]
We were deeply saddened by the news out of Nova Scotia yesterday that 22 people have been gunned down in a senseless act of violence. Let us join together to pray for the families and friends of the victims, who are grieving loved ones lost. This, combined with everything else presently going on in this […]
Today, being Good Friday, my thoughts have gravitated to the final words that Jesus uttered from the cross. There are actually seven statements that He made from the cross. But the one that has most intrigued me recently is the one recorded in Matthew 27:46 – “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” […]
