Isaiah 40:11 He will feed His flock like a shepherd; He will gather the lambs with His arm, And carry them in His bosom, And gently lead those who are with young. Metaphors are powerful tools that enable us to look at things from a new perspective. Until a few years ago, getting tanned under the sun was an […]
Isaiah 30:21 Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” whenever you turn to the right hand or whenever you turn to the left. Do we hear God’s voice when we step out of His will and go astray? How often do we listen to that still, small voice that […]

Matthew 5:4 NKJV “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” The world says people who ‘mourn’ surely cannot be ‘blessed’. Jesus says those who mourn are blessed. In the Holy Bible, blessed usually means ‘happy‘. In the context of Matthew 5, blessed most likely indicates ‘an enviable state.’ When do we call a person blessed? When they […]
1 John 5:18 (NKJV) – “We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.” When we are born into this world we are born into a world of sin and we are born in sin. […]
