NBA All-Star. Who would you vote for?

If you are a basketball fan you would surely watch the popular NBA tournament. The voting for All NBA star has now are started.  Who would you vote for? Lebron or Steph ? Are you fan of them ? Idolized them perhaps? We admire them even if they don't know us in person.  There is one man who knew the whole you. He only does not knew you but he loves and cares for you not just in words but in action. He comforts you when you are weary and encourages you when you are weak. He feeds you when you are hungry and heals when you are sick. He never leaves nor forsake you. He teaches and guides you. He carries and embraces you when you are down and fall. He gives you more chances and forgives you multiple times. He shows you mercy even if you are not merciful. He remains faithful despite of your unfaithfulness. He stand by you and promise He will be you forever. Most of all, He died for you so you will be set free and forgiven. He defeats death and bring back to life so s...

"What Does 2018 Hold For Me"?

I've been seeing people on FB shared a link with a question "What Does 2018 Hold For Me"?  It's a web based app called nametests. Does this app really hold or see our future?  What does the bible say about our future?  If we are in Christ Jesus, we don't anymore hold our future but Him. God says to Jeremiah " For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11. We have to consider the background of this verse is God's promised to His people Israel. However, since have faith in Him. We can surely apply this in our lives. But not to take it literally.  Let's take a look each word God mentioned in this verse. But before that, kindly notice that He said "For I know.. . which means since God created us He surely knew us and nothing can be hidden to Him. An Engineer would know the design of the house he or she created.  Prosper...

What are your New Year's resolution?

I'm pretty sure we have New Year's resolution in our bucket list for the year 2018. We've been accustomed to have one. But are we going to really follow all of them? It's been common for most us to make a list of our New Year's resolution but we cannot deny the fact that we failed to follow them.  In these verses below, Paul explained the reason why we all fail.   “There is no one righteous, not even one;  there is no one who understands;  there is no one who seeks God.  All have turned away, they have together become worthless;  there is no one who does good,not even one.”  Romans 3:10-12. These verses simply means regardless of what religion you have or you belongs to. You are dead in the eyes of God. There are no exceptions.  Now, since there is no one is righteous that means no one can see God. That's why Christ died for our sins so we'll have access to God through Him. He is only perfect man who is God by nature who...

A Sad Christmas!

A movie called "Escape Room" is about a group friends who were trapped in an unknown place. They find different ways to figure out to escape but were not able to and led most of them to death. 27 And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man. 28 “Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice 29 and come out—those who have done what is good will rise to live, and those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned. 30 By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself but him who sent me . John 5: 27-30 - A Sad Christmas! We were also trapped by our sins and transgressions. And tried our best through good works so we can go to heaven. And that's the reason we give money to the poor or the needy to think it would help us getting there. But we are wrong.  Christmas is not just the birth of Jesus, it's also His dea...

The Son of Man

John 5: 27   And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man.   Here we see Jesus relationship with the Father. How intimate it is that the Father gave him the authority to judge.  But what does "Son of Man" mean? This does not mean that Jesus was son of Joseph the husband of Mary who conceived Jesus through the Holy Spirit. Let's read the book of   Daniel 7: 13-14  to help us understand why Jesus has this title being the "Son of Man". 13 “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. 14 He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed. Jesus was obviously fulfilling the prophecy of Daniel when he said in...

Christmas is LIFE!

John 5: 26 26   For as the Father has life in himself, so he has granted the Son also to have life in himself.   One week more to go for Christmas. I'm pretty sure all are excited celebrating holidays with with loved ones. But don't you know that Christmas is about life?  As God gave His only Son so everyone who believes will have eternal life (Jn 3:16). This would tell that God is a life giver. As He himself has life.  Can you give your life to others this Christmas? Not necessarily a material thing but perhaps a short period of time by spending or even sharing your life to other people would be a greatest gift you can give. And if you have  ever wondered where the life come from. It's from God.  For God himself is life. Therefore, He is the source and the author of life. It's gonna be 2018 next year. It's gonna be another year to add to our age. Another life to thank God that He remains faithful to us. Friends, as ...
