Happy new year!
Indeed, it’s a new year and a new start to so many areas of life.

To man, there will always be a new beginning, but to God, there has never been a time that is new or a thing that caught Him unaware.

This makes me think, if I can follow God who has a deep understanding of time, who knows the end from the beginning, who is ageless and never changes by the time, then my success can be guaranteed.

That makes me think that a renewed relationship with God is the most essential for a successful living.

This is not a yearly thing but a daily thing. This is what I believe everyone should pursue and make most paramount as we begin a new year.
It will be a new beginning and a sweet ending in Jesus name.

I want to wish you a Merry Christmas.

As we celebrate one of the most important time of the season, let us not forget the reason why we do so.

Jesus Christ set examples for us to follow.

He also laid down His lives for us, gave us salvation and a restored relationship with God.

We live in a fallen world. Only a relationship with God with commitment  can guarantee hope.

The world has nothing tangible or lasting to offer us. But God has everything to offer us.

There can never be a regret following Him because He promise to always be with you.

Therefore, renew your trust in Him today while there’s still life.

God bless you and happy celebration.

I am thrilled that I was born during the time we celebrate the birth of Jesus. It’s a joyous thing to celebrate especially one’s birth.

This season, we celebrate the birth of one and only Jesus who came and was born in a manger. There was nothing special about His birth but He was born special.

Angels celebrated His birth, Wise men saw the Stars, and even the King thought His arrival would dethrone him.

So, the little baby became the savior of mankind. He bridged the gap created by sin and a sinful world.

Ever since He was born till now (and forever), He is celebrated.

By far, the most important thing about Him is He bringing us salvation and relationship with God because He is Emmanuel.

Now, we have peace with God through God’s only Son, Jesus.

Everything in life is nothing–they are all meaningless like chasing the wind.

A relationship with God (with daily fellowship) is worth it if it means eternal life.

You can ask Him to forgive you your sinful life now and He will come and make a new life with and for you. Amen.

The world is in need of Changers–those who can turn situations around for good. The beautiful thing is that Changers does not necessarily have to be super human. They only need to Be Available for the daunting task.

Yes, the task to touch lives positively is very demanding but by far the most pleasant thing to do in one’s lifetime.

A new Person

With all these chaos and problems constantly overwhelming our society and plaguing our culture and destroying basic values, we need those who will challenge and turn the tide. If there is evil in the land, the world can never get better.

Total Peace and serenity is not really guaranteed, but moral values can be restored and people can learn to love and care.

Therefore, what we need is those who will stand for the truth because the truth is what makes people free.

You can touch lives in any way as long as you are willing to be available–to be a blessing to a soul. Let your positive life influence another life, then you have indeed make yourself a good Samaritan and effectively making the world a heaven away from heaven.

Be available. Bless people, and do whatever you can to live a life that reflect goodness and kindness just like God.

The ability of God is unquestionable and unparalleled yet it seems He losses memory of records of sin(s) the moment He forgives.

God lost memory of all my sins

because they were all cleansed by the precious blood of His sacrificed Son, Jesus Christ.
This is amazing! God knows we are sinners and unworthy, yet He constantly beckon on us and when we come, whosoever comes, He forgives. And He not only forgives, He forgot.
I bet every one of us remembers some fault of one another to some level even after we have forgiven. I do not blame man because we have memory that keeps records of everything. God does have memory too but the only time He losses His memory is when He forgives.

So, He forgives us regardless of offense. Why? because all Sin, past, present and future Sin was and is and has been hung on Jesus.

Whatever happens, at least, we know that the scripture, His Word, is infallible. He said, “For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.” How can that be?

You can always come to God for forgiveness and He will still have mercy.
Thank God because we are so privileged that God is kind and good.
Take advantage of this nature of God and run to Him until you are saved.
When you do, He forgives and losses memory of your sins and you become a brand new person.

The ultimate sacrifice is to give yourself–your life for the life of another. Very few people have done this. And Jesus did gave Himself and gave all for us all, including those who are yet to be saved and those who are yet unborn.

You can wonder what else does the world want from a loving God? God has given us everything that is needed to live a wonderful life. But men devise their own way and their own method. Unfortunately, most of the time, these ways and methods are pervert and ungodly.

The ultimate price has been paid to ransom the lost. No other thing will God do because He said, “it is finished”. Yes, the remaining responsibility lies with man and man must determine its own destiny. You can choose to follow the person who paid the ultimate sacrifice to redeemed you and find eternal peace, or follow the world and everything it stands for(the world isn’t that nice to anyone anyway), or even follow yourself and please yourself–unfortunately you never get satiated.

The price has been paid once and for all time. So, your salvation has been guaranteed once and for all time. Yes, you heard me right. God did not save you so that tomorrow or next or later years, you will need to come back to be saved again. No! You were redeemed and sealed by the Holy Spirit.

Let God have is way in your life and live a life free of worry and trouble which stem from enjoying the ultimate sacrifice that God did on the cross. Amen.

God cares about us and He cares about our daily, basic needs.

He provided food for Ishmael in the wilderness.

He provided water for Isaac and helped Jacob after cheating his brother.

He made Joseph king so that Israel and his children did not die of hunger during famine.

He granted Israel favor before the Egyptians such that they were favorably disposed and they gave the Israelites every thing they requested.

The Israelites crossed the Red Sea by God’s Mercy.

For the sake of His own, the wicked Egyptians perished in the same Red Sea.

God truly cares.
