Mangoes and Star Apples on my Journey

2017-06-09T13:34:00.000-07:00

Just taking a drive out in the country areas can be so much fun. This journey cannot happen on a daily basis, so when it comes, take it with pure joy. Words sometime cannot explain the feeling of sheer ecstasy when you drive through the country side. This is just a continuation from my recent post in regards to a trip to St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. In the country, the air is so

A Tour to and from St. Elizabeth

2017-06-08T15:54:00.001-07:00

My friends and I went on a tour to St. Elizabeth, Jamaica, driving on the sea coast. The ride was so invigorating and peaceful, not to mention the beautiful and natural scenery which was so captivating. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I would do it all over again. On our way back from St. Elizabeth, the various stops were a must for us. Fry fish, bammy, fish soup were

As Peaceful As A Flower

2011-10-14T06:57:00.000-07:00

We complicate our lives when we borrow trouble from the future. We waste our energy worrying about what might happen tomorrow; we become frantic and pressured looking at the many responsibilities on our to-do list for the next week; we lie awake obsessing over our plans for the upcoming month. And meanwhile we miss the precious gift of peace that God has given us right here, right

I Look To You, Dear Lord

2011-10-12T11:10:00.000-07:00

You are my hope, the Lord of my life. I wait on You and move cautiously in my decisions. I am not ashamed to trust in Your guidance, Lord. Instead I feel thankful for the trust in You. I am filled with peace. Throughout the day my thoughts often turn to You for direction and strength. In quiet and confidence I find the strength only You can give. You, dear

How Will Evil End?

2011-10-09T10:23:00.000-07:00

There is so much evil in the world today, so much wickedness, violence, corruption, drunkenness and debauchery. There is so much crime of every description, that some people think it will never end. Evil has taken strong hold on the human race ever to be eradicated. Yet one of the most glorious truths your Bible reveals is that someday in God's good time, when He is ready, all evil

Nailing My Sins To His cross

2011-10-07T07:54:00.000-07:00

That day when they crucified my Saviour, He was willing to pay all the cost. When they drove the nails through His body, they were nailing my sins to His cross. Oh the shame of it, my sins crucified Him that day, my sins were to blame. Forgive me Lord I pray, I will live so the world can know that I love You for nailing my sins to the cross. Although this was centuries ago now, and

Signs Of The End Times There are those who would roll their eyes at the idea of the signs of the end times. This is due in large part to the number of times in the past people have proclaimed that the end times were upon us. That being said, the events of the past few years, or even decade, have Bible scholars at all levels looking closer to ascertain if prophesy is indeed being

Evaluate The Obstacles In Your Life

2011-06-06T21:24:00.000-07:00

We need to evaluate the obstacles in our lives that are preventing us to pursue our dreams. Some of them are: I am too young I am too old I am physically handicapped I do not have the money I do not have the time I do not have the energy I am not intelligent enough I am not creative enough I am too shy I am not attractive I do not know the right people It is too hard to change at this stage

The Coming Of The Lord!!

2011-06-05T06:52:00.000-07:00

No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Therefore, I fail to see how a man arrived at a date for Christ's coming, and I also fail to see in these modern times how so many people can be fooled into believing a lie. But then I remembered my Bible tells me that, when people fail to believe the truth then they will believe a

The Christ, The Son of God

2011-03-07T18:45:00.000-08:00

"Christ" is the New Testament word for the Messiah, the anointed ruler predicted in the Old Testament. "Son of God" refers to Jesus' special relationship to the Father - a unique position no one else has - the only begotten Son (John 3:16). Did Jesus claim such positions? Matthew 16:13-18 - Jesus rejected as inadequate the claims that He was just a prophet. But when Peter confessed Jesus to be

Seek God In 2011

2011-01-10T06:28:00.001-08:00

If you are reading this post, that means that you are still alive. You have made it to 2011 and we owe this life to no one else but God Almighty.

Why did Jesus fold the linen burial cloth after His Resurrection?

2010-11-21T14:12:00.000-08:00

The Gospel of John (20:7) tells us that the napkin, which was placed over the face of Jesus, was not just thrown aside like the grave clothes. The Bible takes an entire verse to tell us that the napkin was neatly folded and was placed at the head of that stony coffin. Early Sunday morning,while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene came to the

Make Right With God Before It's Too Late

2010-10-29T18:01:00.000-07:00

A man who was named Noah warned the people about the Flood. He did so for 120 years. However, the people continued in their ways. During all this Noah obeyed God's instruction and built an ark. The people continued in their ways until the flood came and overtook them. When they saw what was happening they were now ready to heed the warning but it was too late, they

The Power Of The Word

2010-09-13T16:53:00.000-07:00

For the Word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of joints ans marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. The word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. I will delight myself in thy statues, I will not forget thy word. How sweet are thy words

This prayer is a reminder that God has not forgotten us. It might seems that way to us on many occasions. Remember, we are humans forget, but I am here to encourage you all and myself that God will never leave us or forsake us. How much longer will you forget me, Lord? Forever?

Happy Mother's Day on May 9, 2010

2010-05-08T04:26:00.000-07:00

Mothers are very important people. Without mothers, there would be no children. So why do we treat our mothers so shabbily at times? Many today are both mother and father to the children and the difficulty to provide is crucial and depressing, but there are those who continue to provide against the odds. Mothers have a huge responsibility to foster healthy development in their

Another Earthquake?

2010-03-04T16:57:00.000-08:00

Another earthquake again? This time in Taiwan. When will it end? the question is being asked by many. Who will be next? "And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and

Do We Still Doubt?

2010-02-19T07:33:00.000-08:00

Almighty God, our Father, we have seen you in the changed lives of the disciples, and in growth of the church from eleven men in Jerusalem to a world-wide fellowship; but sometimes we still doubt.In our own day we have seen missionaries leave to follow you, but sometimes we still doubt.We have seen confirmed skeptics changed into compassionate Christians, but sometimes we still doubt.

Why Am I Suffering So Much?

2010-02-08T09:34:00.000-08:00

There are several causes of suffering, and sometimes it is difficult to classify one's personal troubles. However, if that suffering drives you toward God rather than away from Him, then the result will be beneficial. If you think that your suffering is the result of disobedience to some basic law, ask God to help you remedy the defect. If you know it comes from an accident for which

Signs Of Our Times

2010-01-31T20:16:00.000-08:00

As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of Man. They ate, they drank, they married, they were given in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all; Luke 17:26,27. This prediction makes it impossible for anyone to mistake the approximate time of Christ second coming. He has to but watch for a return of

Troubles And Persecutions

2010-01-19T09:02:00.000-08:00

Countries will fight each other. Kingdoms will attack one another. There will be famines and earthquakes everywhere. All these things are like the first pains of childbirth. Then you will be arrested and handed over to be punished and be put to death. All mankind will hate you because of me (Jesus). Many will give up their faith at that time; they will betray
