Reflection: Gratitude is a powerful attitude that can transform our lives. In 1 Thessalonians 5:18, Paul encourages us to "give thanks in all circumstances." This doesn't mean we are thankful for every situation, especially the difficult ones, but it means finding reasons to be grateful even amidst our trials. Gratitude shifts our focus from what we lack to what we have. It helps us see God's hand in our lives and recognize His blessings, no matter how small. When we cultivate a grateful heart, we start to notice the everyday miracles and the ways God provides for us. Consider the story of Paul and Silas in Acts 16. While imprisoned, they chose to pray and sing hymns to God. Despite their dire circumstances, they found reasons to be grateful and praise God. Their gratitude not only sustained them but also led to a mira...

Trust in The Lord

Many times we say that I can do this, I am able, I know everything. We forget about God. When we fail in what we do, we begin to blame God.

God tells us in Proverbs 3:5 that Trust in the Lord with all your heart,NEVER RELY ON WHAT YOU THINK YOU KNOW. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will lead your paths.

We rely too much on what we know but God is encouraging us to Trust in Him. That's all we have to do. God will surely lead our paths. He will help us to reach our goals and ambitions in life.

Have a blessed day.

Embracing Change with Faith

Scripture: "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 (NIV) Reflection: Change is a constant part of life. Sometimes it brings joy and new opportunities, while at other times, it brings challenges and uncertainties. Regardless of its nature, change is an inevitable aspect of our journey. However, as followers of Christ, we can take comfort in knowing that God is sovereign over all circumstances, and He has a purpose for every season of our lives. In times of change, it's natural to feel anxious or apprehensive about the unknown. Yet, God assures us in Jeremiah 29:11 that His plans for us are good. Even when we can't see the bigger picture, we can trust that God is working all things together for our ultimate good (Romans 8:28). Instead of resisting change out of fear or doubt, let us approach it with faith and surrender. Embracing change with f...
