This Too Shall Pass

 “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” — Hebrews 13:8 There are moments when the weight of life feels unbearable—when grief, uncertainty, or exhaustion cloud our vision. In those moments, let this truth anchor your soul: this too shall pass . This heartache, this struggle, this darkness—it is not eternal. But your God is. His love is not seasonal. His presence is not conditional. His promises are not fragile. You are not forgotten in the storm; you are being held. Hope is not passive. It is active trust in the sovereignty of God. It is choosing to believe that He is working in you and through you, even when the outcome is unclear. It is lifting your eyes from the shifting sands of circumstance to the eternal rock of Christ. Let the promise of an ending to your trials, combined with the assurance of God’s unchanging love, fill you with courage and peace. Jesus—the Alpha and the Omega—is with you now. He will be with you until this season becomes a testimony, an...

Going Beyond Discussion

Knowing God is More Than Just Information ​There is a fundamental question in the Christian Faith: "Do we know God or know about God?"  This strikes right at the heart of our faith. It's a challenging distinction, yet one that's vital for a deep and meaningful spiritual life. Many of us, with the best intentions, find ourselves caught in the trap of accumulating information about God without ever truly knowing Him personally. ​The Trap of "Knowing About" ​We are diligent students of the faith. We are present in church, our Bibles are open, and our notes are filled with insights from sermons and Bible studies. We can discuss theology, debate doctrine, and confidently share the historical context of scripture. We may even stand up and sing and talk about God and what it's like to be up there with Him.  ​This is all good—even necessary—but it can become a subtle barrier. We can become so focused and involved in knowing about God—His attributes, His plan, Hi...

The Waiting Room

“But now thus saith the Lord that created thee… Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.” — Isaiah 43:1 (KJV) 💬 Reflection When problems persist, or maybe sickness healing feels slow or life is uncertain, it’s easy to wonder if we’ve missed something—if our prayers weren’t strong enough, our faith not deep enough. But even Paul, the great apostle who witnessed miracles, once left his friend Trophimus behind, still sick. There was no dramatic healing. Just quiet trust. This isn’t a sign of failure. It’s a reminder that God’s love is not measured by outcomes, but by presence. He doesn’t withdraw when things are hard. He draws closer. His peace doesn’t wait for perfect circumstances—it meets us in the middle of the storm. And here’s the most beautiful truth: God knows you by name. Not just your diagnosis. Not just your pain. He knows your heart, your hopes, your quiet courage. You are not a statistic or a shadow—you are His beloved child, f...

The Better Conversation

"Worry is a conversation with self about things we cannot change. Prayer is a conversation with God about things He can change." ​Have you ever found yourself replaying a difficult conversation in your mind, agonizing over a decision you can't undo, or losing sleep over a future event that's completely out of your control? That's worry. It's a relentless loop of mental chatter, a conversation we have with ourselves about all the things we can't fix, control, or change. And it's exhausting. ​Worry drains our energy, steals our peace, and can even take a toll on our physical health. It's the enemy of rest, the opposite of trust. When we worry, we're essentially telling God, "I've got this. I'll handle it myself." We're trying to carry a weight that we were never meant to carry. We become so focused on the "what ifs" that we forget the "what is" and, more importantly, the "Who is." ​ Now, consi...
