I got up this morning and the first thing that came to my mind was Caleb Meakins.
I am glad that most people here knew him and got a chance to express their condolences. I guess, once we lose such a person, that is the only thing we can do — express our condolences, am I right? Continue reading No One Comes!→
In the middle of the hustle and bustle of life, we tend to forget that Jesus is real. But do you know that Jesus Christ is real? Yes, He is! And He is who He said He is.

John Piper once said, “The Gospel does not offer to the sinner what the sinner wants naturally.”

Let’s not hold back from doing simple gestures of love to those who are living with us, such as our spouses and kids.
Most of us are good at surprising others with a simple and spontaneous gesture of love, but we find it hard to do this to the people who matter most in our lives.

Today I read/studied/meditated on Luke chapter six.
I mean, I learned a lot from this specific chapter, about the Sabbath, how “The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath,” not the other way round, how Jesus spent the night in prayer before He picked 12 of His disciples and more.
I like Luke and he writes the Gospel in a very unique way, different from Matthew, John and Mark because hello, Luke was a medical doctor of his time. Don’t you love that? I do! So, Dr. Luke sees things in a little different way. His usage of words helps the reader to look the Gospel through a different lens.
