Hi everyone! How did you celebrate the Easter? Mine was full of sleeping and meditation. Thank God for the great love with which He loved us. Here's an Easter poem to keep you going.
A Helpless God?

He walked on this earth in great power
He healed the sick, raised the dead
Above normal mortals, He seemed to tower

He spoke with authority
And taught the people
Shocked and amazed every entity

The crowds followed Him, curious
To see miracles and eat bread
For to them, His claims were really spurious

Frowning, they tugged their turbans
The Pharisees sought to kill Him
For His fame had gone rural and urban

Yet He seemed unkillable
Yet He was untouchable
This Son of man, so irresistible

But at the moment of reckoning, His "luck" wasn't endless
And so it seemed,
That for a moment, God was helpless

He who had walked in power
Now unable to move a finger
His disciples began to cower

The people mocked, the women wept
The disciples scattered,
Running, confused, they all left

And for a moment, God was helpless
Or so it seemed

But O the wisdom of God, how unsearchable
If the princes had known,
They wouldn't have crucified Christ

Like a son He laid down His life
Bringing hell to confusion
And like a Son He picked up His life

 Now when it looks like God is helpless
Remember His weakness is greater than any strength
And His foolishness wiser than all wisdom

Happy Easter to you

Stalker God?

One Sunday during a church Bible study on salvation, the Bible study leader spoke about the coming judgement and told us that God keeps a record of the things we do and we will be judged according to our works. Someone asked why God follows us recording everything we do to judge us on the last day when He Himself had said we're saved when we believe in Christ. The leader asked the congregation if any of us had an answer and I shared my opinion. I gave quite a lengthy explanation on the difference between the judgment of Christians and the judgment of the world, the various crowns and rewards that will be given on the last day, and the fact that our lives are an eternal record of the glory of God and an example to the world. Everyone seemed to like what I said and I was applauded. After church, one of the junior pastors told me that he liked my answer during the Bible study class and I left, feeling a warm glow inside. As I thought about it, my mind was opened and I underst...

Faith

The Spider is dead The first star is fallen Gone are the cobwebs that had me cowering The crutches are broken The second star is fallen Somehow, I must move without falling The darkness has fled The third star is fallen I'll get used to the light that's so blinding Christ on the water calls The fourth star is fallen I have to walk on water without sinking Somehow I must pick up the pieces and move on I must walk on the water with Christ I'm walking on water I'm walking without crutches I'm flying without wings Christ is my light

A Reflection

Luke 12:22 And he said unto his disciples, Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on 23 The life is more than meat and the body is more than raiment. I’ve come to see how true this is. We read the Bible and this scripture is so easy to quote. But what about doing it? Many of us are worried about what we’ll eat or what we’ll wear. Which hairstyle do we do next? Weave, clip-ins, wig or braids? Curly or straight? Long or short? Black, brown, red or gold? What about our nails? What colour do we paint them? Which shoes? Which lashes? Which makeup? Which phone, which tablet? Which laptop? Which car? Which flavour of  ice cream ? For many of us, our lives revolve around our bodies. Yet Jesus said life is more than food and the body more than clothing. Is it really true? The Apostle John said in 1 John 2:15, 16 15 Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love th...
