God’s Steadfast Love Leads Us to Repentance
“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercy never comes to an end . . .” This song keeps reminding me of God’s love and mercy, even for someone like me who is stubborn and self-dependent. These past weeks, I don’t think I could say that I have been a good Christian. I…

Beauty for Ashes: God’s Way of Transforming Our Broken Lives
Last week, I decided to use my free time going to a book sale. It has been a long while since the last time I had indulge myself with books. As I looked around, the smell of the books enticed me to flip some of those pages near me. I picked up one book. Then,…

Holding Things Loosely
In the quietness of my spirit I have whispered, “Lord, I have to learn to hold things loosely.” We all have a fair share of what we hold tightly in this life.

When the Path is Blurry, Trust the Lord
Many years ago, I loved planning what my life would be like. I was so stubborn (well, getting better on that) and I did not like others pointing out what I wanted for my life. Until God taught me a hard lesson in 2017 when it involved my health. I got so depressed that I…

When We Need Grace to Speak the Truth
Have you ever regretted a word or words that you said towards others? Maybe the author of Proverbs 15 knows exactly how difficult it is to choose our words carefully when we are on the verge of getting mad or when we are deeply offended by someone with their words. It is easier to fight…
