Rejoice in the Lord (Philippians 3)
In this chapter, Paul exhorts the believers of Philippi to not put their confidence in their flesh but in Jesus Christ. Paul was not always an apostle, his name was Saul and he used to brutally persecute the church before being changed by Jesus (Acts 9). However, after being called by the Lord, He got…

Love and faith in Jesus Christ (Philippians 1)
Today I started reading the book of Philippians which is a letter written by Paul to the believers in Philippi. When Paul was writing that letter he was in prison but one can see that his love and faith in Jesus were never affected by Paul’s circumstances. Paul was even rejoicing in the partnership of…

A living sacrifice
I was reading Romans 12 and I know that it is one of the scriptures I have read many times in my life but this time it spoke to me on another level about the living sacrifice. Romans 12 verse 1 says; “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to…

Loving people and bearing fruits (Book of Colossians chapter 1)
The book of Colossians is full of priceless knowledge. I know the whole Bible does but this particular book has touched me in so many ways yet it has only four chapters. Today I want to dig deeper into Colossians chapter 1. The book has been written by Paul and Timothy for the church in…

Mark 4
Today, I was reading Mark 4 and some words kept my attention as they kept coming. The chapter talks about different subjects but the common denominator is that Jesus was talking in parables while surrounded by a crowd and would explain what He said when with His disciples. When reading verses 11 and 12, I…

Matthew 1,2 and 3
Today, I was reading the book of Matthew from chapters 1 to 3. They talk about the story of Mary, how she became pregnant with Jesus while she was about to marry her fiancé Joseph, how the Lord reassured Joseph that Mary’s pregnancy is from the Holy Ghost and what they went through when Mary…

Jealousy
I suppose that I am not the only person who sometimes gets jealous for different reasons. I realized that putting a name on it has been very helpful in my repentance. It was hard when I was feeling down without knowing the real reason behind my feelings but I thank God that He had been…
