With God, All Things are Possible

“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?" —Jeremiah 32:27

In Judges 7:12, God had Gideon use 300 men, horns, jars, and blazing torches against armies that were as numerous as locusts; and their camels were without number.
Could Israel defeat such a formidable foe?
It was humanly impossible!
They had neither the manpower nor the military hardware.
But they had one thing that worked for them and that was all they needed.
They had God’s promise: “By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place.” (Judges 7:7)
The result? Victory!

Are you facing a formidable challenge?
The Lord has said, “Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?" (Jer. 32:27).
With God, all things are possible.

Let Your Light Shine

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. (Matthew 5: 16) 

1. Let it be known that you are real Christian. Let your holy life, your pure conversation, and your faithful instructions, be everywhere seen and known always, in all societies, in all business, at home and abroad, in prosperity and adversity.

2. Let your good deeds be evident to all. True conversion cannot be concealed. Our conduct must reveal Christ. Our actions must display the power and purity of the Gospel.

3. Let your good deeds lead people to honor God. Our conduct must win people to Christ, causing them to give praise and glory to God, for His mercy to a lost world.

Everyone Can Serve

We may not be clever, but we can serve.
We may not be influential, but we can serve.
We may not have a college degree, but we can serve.
We may not be a language specialist, but we can serve.

We don't need to know everything before we can serve.
We don't need to be someone great before we can serve.
We only need a heart full of grace,
And a soul generated by love.

We may be a small pebble in a big pond,
We may be a tiny splash in the universe,
We may judge ourselves to be insignificant,
But we can be greatly used by God if we want to.

The Son of God did not come to be served,but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many. —Mark 10:45

Remember...
Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve.
And...
Little things done in Christ’s name are great things.

The Joy of Giving In

The knowledge of right and wrong isn't everything that is.

There are times we rather be wronged in order to keep the family together...

There are times we choose to give in just for the scruples of the weak...

The sayang "love covers over a multitude of sins" is applicable here.

Besides, "Who has not sinned?" "Let he who has not sinned cast the first stone."

There is also a joy in giving in, isn't it?

And It isn't easy, but it needs to be done at times.

A Pilgrim's Thoughts

Life is short. Every hour of life we get after 60s or 70s is a bonus.

Life is lonely. Many have left along the way; many more will go sooner or later.

Life is fleeting, temporary, and uncertain, and we are drawing closer to our end...

For the ungodly, life is bleak and hopeless. Everything is meaningless, like chasing the wind.

But for the believers, life is a pilgrimage. They are but strangers here and sojourners. This  world is not their home. There is an afterlife. And God is with them as their companion and guide. Life is less troubling, less frightening, and less worrisome.

“Hear my prayer, O LORD,

And give ear to my cry; 

Do not be silent at my tears; 

For I am a stranger with You, 

A sojourner, as all my fathers were." —Psalm 39:12
