A Man Named Jesus

Image
  December 25 th  is the day that many people around the world commemorate the birth of Jesus (Savior), the Christ (Messiah). While historians are unsure of Jesus’s exact birthdate, they agree that Jesus was a real preacher whose ministry started in early AD. There are also people who have faith that Jesus was more than a minister or prophet. They believe that he was God’s only begotten son who was sent to Earth to redeem humankind’s relationship with Him. Moreover, Jesus was sent to teach people the truth about God, the Creator of Heaven and Earth because religious leaders had distorted His image and the meaning of true spirituality.

Whatever your religious affiliation, you have absolutely nothing to lose by studying the life and teachings of Jesus, namely in the four gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) of the Holy Bible. It’s critical though that you pray for wisdom, understanding, a...

Understanding Your True Worth Leads to A Life of Self-Actualization

       You might have heard of a true story in the news about a person who purchased a bowl at an estate sale for $3.00 only to find out later that the item was actually worth millions of dollars.

Because He is love, you are too; Because He is good, you inher...

From Whining to Winning: How to Transform Problems into Power

Image
       “Forgiving does not erase the bitter past. A healed memory is not a deleted memory. Instead, forgiving what we cannot forget creates a new way to remember. We change the memory of our past into a hope for our future. ” —Lewis Smedes (1921-2002) Dear Beloved, While we have a need to release what is in our hearts, we must be mindful of spending too much time on our trauma and trouble. Talking about what hurts us is cathartic but it doesn’t change, improve, or solve the issue. It’s paramount that once we have discussed our problem, we shift our focus to solutions and how we can move forward. Investing our time and energy to extracting life lessons from negative situations allows us to transform the bad into good and discover the treasures in our trials. No, it’s not always easy to do this, but this is a critical step to healing and finding the purpose in our pain. Waddling in victimhood shackles us to our problems; it’s like being stuck in emotional mud! ...
