“Your love is like Science Fiction”

That is the 8th song from Jonathan Thulin’s new album called “Science Fiction.” The song just made my day!

Think about it! God’s love for us is actually out of this world. The life we have in Christ, because God so loved us, is out of this world.

That is what science fiction movies are all about: They tell a fiction story of a life that is outside this world!

But the life you and I live in Christ is not fiction at all. It is real! God’s love and our life in His love may look like science fiction but it is real!

Here is the chorus and the last stanza of Jonathan’s song: Continue reading “Your love is like Science Fiction”

One of the Banko’s Silly Jokes

Did I ever tell you how much I love my three kids? Oh, my! How can I forget that? I love all my three blessings very much. They indeed are a gift from God (Psalm 127:3). I love and enjoy them very much.

You see, I spend most of my time working on serious stuff and sometimes laughing can be a very rare thing to find in my world.

The thing is I love to laugh and I love to hear jokes (“clean jokes”, I may add) and my kids, all of them are very funny. Well, the funniest of all is my little one. But there is no way for you to know that unless you live with him. Continue reading One of the Banko’s Silly Jokes

How can I share my secret with others?

A4P Guest: May the Lord bless you for what you’re doing!

A4P: Amen! Thank you for your kind remarks!

A4P Guest: Can I ask you a question?

A4P: Sure, you can.

A4P Guest: Why do women act like crazy?

A4P: What do you mean?

A4P Guest: I mean, why do women’s moods change frequently like crazy?

A4P: You know, for you guys, it may seem we women are crazy but we don’t usually see our craziness as you men do. Continue reading How can I share my secret with others?

From New York back to Maryland

New York was very cold but the warm hospitality of the Emmanuel Worship Center folks made me feel like I was in the middle of a summer season.

I had a wonderful weekend except Saturday evening when I had a severe migraine headache. I only missed one program. Since God never lets my enemy rejoice over me, He gave me double strength, anointing and health for me to stand the next morning and proclaim His Truth. May He alone be praised! Oh, how I love to be with Jesus! Continue reading From New York back to Maryland

Oh, Tell Her Until She Hears You

Lying down on her back, she looked through the window which was next to the bed. She kept on thinking if her decision to have sex before marriage was right. She wanted to give lots of good reasons to quieten her soul but none of those reasons were good enough.

She quietly said, “I wish I was living with my family.” She didn’t know how that could have saved her from her decision.

It’s been almost three years since she moved out of her parents’ house. She now lives four hours’ away from home. She tries to keep in touch with her family over the phone. Last time when she talked to her mom, she told her about the man she was seeing. After her mom heard her talk about him for almost half an hour, she said, “Precious, I hope you won’t forget what you promised.” Continue reading Oh, Tell Her Until She Hears You

Death or Life?

God said to Adam and Eve, “you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die.” (Genesis 2:17)

God pretty much said to them, if you disobey Me, you will certainly die. After Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, did they die?

Well, after they ate the forbidden fruit, Adam and Eve built a house and had kids, Abel and Cain. Continue reading Death or Life?

A Comment on the post – “Characteristics of a Good Marriage Worth Copying”

A4P Guest: “- – – It’s a beautiful list of things we all should practice in our marriage and some in any relationship. I agree that we should work – hard for – good things to come to us, marriage is not an exception. We all know as well that “Houses and wealth are inherited from parents, but a prudent wife is from the LORD.” Proverbs 19:14. The point I am trying to make is this: a marriage that is not from the Lord will never work despite the practice of the things you listed. A marriage “that fell on us from Heaven” also won’t work if we don’t practice the list; and a marriage that is not approved by heaven won’t work no matter what we exercise the list. My view, correct me if I am wrong.” Continue reading A Comment on the post – “Characteristics of a Good Marriage Worth Copying”

Characteristics of a Good Marriage Worth Copying

We all know that good marriages won’t just come from heaven and fall on us.

We make them!

We can’t say, “I’m just unlucky to be in this marriage” because there is no luck with good marriages; only hard work. From my personal experience, this is the one thing I’ve noticed in all good marriages: There are two people who diligently work hard towards making their marriage better everyday.

So, whenever I see a good marriage, I ask this question, “Why do I feel like their marriage is better than mine?” And if my feeling is true, I always find more than one answer. Continue reading Characteristics of a Good Marriage Worth Copying
