Hebrews 13:16- “Do not forget to do good and to share with others, for with such sacrifices God is pleased.” If it was natural and easy for us to do good and to share with others, we wouldn’t need to be reminded, but our human nature is more self-centred. When we share what we have […]

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 – “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ for you.” One of the meanings of rejoicing is to be glad.
