If you look to the world and it’s standards, it’s way of life, to find out who you are, in essence, “searching for yourself”, the only thing you’ll find out is what you are not. Let us look to the Word to find out the truth about who we are in Christ and where we are in life. Let’s walk by faith and what the Word of God says, not what the world tells us! It is...

I just realized that being in a bad place is being somewhere that God isn’t. God promises He’ll never leave me so why should I be afraid of the future, of or the outcome of this situation that has been on my mind, of taking a step of faith? God is with me no matter what. That’s all I really want in the end.

One of those times where you see a man who doesn’t look like he’s been homeless for long. Said he’s going through a rough time right now and needed a bus pass. I gave him that and walked away thinking, my job is done. But as I walked away and hopped on the train I couldn’t help but think of how much more I could’ve done. How I could’ve paid for a night’s...
Talk about a whirlwind week. Sometimes I think that if God would give me such and such opportunity I would be so happy, while ignoring the small things I haven’t yet obeyed God in… I can see now why He asks me to trust Him in the little things, trust Him in the small things that seem negligible because God is always preparing me for what is to come. Whether its in a moment, an hour, a...
