Imagine having children. Or, imagine your children (if you have) — Imagine, never interacting with them and having a nanny who sees to them, and then come report to you how they are. Imagine having tried to get a child for 10 years, or 20! And then someone dare come between you and him or … Continue reading Allegory of the New Testament
Last night, I jokingly told the Lord, ‘Send Angel Gabriel to us too, that he may tell of things to come in 2025.’ I can’t believe I hadn’t thought of the consequences of my actions… But, as ever so gently as He is, an answer He gave, ‘I won’t send Gabriel. Even better … I … Continue reading Better Than Angels!
I was rushing past the church entrance for service, and the choir was singing the last worship song. I nearly face-bashed into a jacked dark and tall guy. His biceps pressed against his veins causing them to pop — ah, admiration … or, or covetousness? Let’s blame it on my coming-of-an-adult phase, and maybe an … Continue reading El Roi
There is a child (last born) who when the toilet in their bathroom was occupied, always went to use her parents’ toilet. Even if they were not around, I felt it was crossing the line. Some children (and I don’t mean those that don’t understand) waltz into their parents’ rooms, or any other grown up’s … Continue reading Love + Boundaries
Song of Solomon 2:15 Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes. An article I read says the little foxes represent the seemingly small but significant issues that can damage that love's beauty and fruitfulness. And there were no better words to express what I felt … Continue reading Catch the Little Foxes
'I love him' ... 'I love her' ... We sometimes we think we love people. But a little more observation ... a little more observation — how ironic — exposes our heart's state. I used to claim I loved certain people, but I'd ask, 'why don't I love my biological brother the same?' Something was … Continue reading Love & Lust
These were the words of Jacob as He wrestled with God. But after God has blessed you — then what? Shall you let Him go? Nay, I say! You must not. Many sadly have let God go! After He has blessed them with that job, with that car, or that child!This lessens the value of … Continue reading I Won’t Let You Go Till You Bless Me …
This morning, the word of the Lord came to me saying, ‘I give the close of word. I have the final say. I am not only Alpha but also OMEGA.’ He then reminded me of how this was proven so; ‘When Lazarus they had laid in a tomb, four days had passed. Decomposition had already … Continue reading I AM … OMEGA
Martha, Martha, Sit! Do not be cumbered about much serving! Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: the dishes will do themselves! I mean, the stones can worship me all by themselves. Surely these too can receive hands to scrub themselves. Martha, Martha, Sit! One thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen … Continue reading Martha, Martha, Sit!
Weeks ago I was reading the Abraham-Lot story. Lot multiplied as much as Abraham. They had to go separate ways to avoid the fights among their shepherds and other kinfolk. Lot ended up going to the valley that housed Sodom and Gomorrah, the cities soon to be judged by God's fire! I must say, I … Continue reading The God that Reconciles
Matthew 5:43-48 'You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of … Continue reading Of Grudges
This Valentines', I think of Jesus, and how He carried you. How He carried you all that while. You see, last night, whilst on the toilet seat (ah, I don't know why it's always the toilet..!) — but yes, whilst there, I was staring at my palms, and I remembered when God said He had … Continue reading Hands of God!
1 Peter 5:7 Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. I lost sleep on the early morning of January 7th. And as I twisted and turned, the above verse came … Continue reading …Care So Affectionate
When I was a child – 6 or 7 years old – I remember watching Terminator. Nannies never observed ‘parental guidance.’ So as they watched via VHS, all the kids watched along. The graphics haunted me: especially that part when Schwarzenegger cut his skin to expose a bionic skeleton. It got worse when fire burnt … Continue reading Facing Your Fears
2 John 1:12 Having many things to write to you, I did not wish [to do so] with paper and ink; but I hope to come to you and speak face to face, that our joy may be full. In part one of this article, I spoke about Job's friends showing up when he was … Continue reading Ministry of Presence 2: Face to Face
