    Imperfect Yet Faithful: What It Really Means to Be a Christian I’ll be honest with you; I’ve asked myself this question more times than I can count. Sometimes it’s when I lose my temper with a loved one. Other times, it’s when I scroll through social media and see people who seem to have it all together, their faith shining so brightly. And I think, “Am I really measuring up?” Here’s the thing: being a Christian isn’t about never making mistakes. It’s about how we navigate life’s messiness with God in our hearts. I’ve tripped over pride, struggled with impatience, and doubted my purpose, but each time, I’ve learned something. I’ve learned that grace is bigger than my failures, and that even small acts of kindness or forgiveness matter. Being a Christian shows up in ordinary moments: helping a friend who’s hurting, choosing honesty when lying seems easier, or just praying when everything feels confusing. It’s in those moments that I see real faith, not perfection. ...

Letting Go to Letting Free – Part II

Letting Go to Letting Free – Part II Forgiveness and Laying Down Every Weight Introduction In the first part of this series, we looked at how letting go opens the door to freedom. But if we are honest, there is one burden that silently weighs down many hearts— Unforgiveness . It’s not always visible, but it shows up in our emotions, our relationships, and even in how we view ourselves. Forgiveness is one of the hardest things to practice, yet it is one of the greatest keys to living free. To let go is to release the pain, but to truly let free is to forgive and walk unchained. The Weight We Carry Holding on to offense is like carrying a backpack filled with heavy stones. Every harsh word, every betrayal, every disappointment—we pack them inside and try to keep moving. But the truth is, it slows us down, drains our energy, and steals our joy. Paul said it beautifully: “Let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the...

    Finding God in Chaos: How to Experience Peace When Life Feels Overwhelming Life doesn’t always come neatly packaged. Some days are smooth and predictable, but then there are seasons that feel like everything is falling apart at once. Bills pile up, relationships crack, plans fail, and the world around us spins faster than we can keep up. Chaos has a way of showing up uninvited—loud, messy, and relentless. If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Where is God in all this?” you’re not alone. Many of us wrestle with that question. But here’s the surprising truth: God is not absent in our storms. In fact, He is often the closest when life feels most confusing. Why Chaos Can Feel So Overwhelming Chaos is draining because it strips away our sense of control. We like to have things figured out—plans, timelines, security—but chaos reminds us how fragile life really is. The Bible reminds us: “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fe...

From Letting Go to Letting Free

From Letting Go to Letting Free Life has a way of holding us in places we were never meant to stay. Whether it’s the pain of yesterday, the sting of betrayal, the fear of the unknown, or even our own pride, we often clutch so tightly that our hands grow weary. But the truth is, holding on to what God has called us to release can weigh down our spirit. The journey from letting go to letting free is not just about release—it’s about transformation. Letting Go: The First Step of Faith Letting go is never easy. It means loosening our grip on what we once thought we could not live without. It could be a relationship, an unhealthy habit, or a dream that no longer aligns with God’s will. Letting go is not a sign of weakness; it’s a sign of faith. The Apostle Paul reminds us: “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.” — Philippians 3:13 (KJV) To let go...

  What Kind of Man Are You? A Reflection of God’s Mirror                                                                                                       Picture From: unsplash.com   When you stand in front of a mirror, it doesn’t flatter you. It doesn’t care about your feelings, your titles, or your reputation. It shows you exactly what you are in that moment, wrinkles, scars, dirt, flaws, beauty, or strength. And in the same way, the Word of God is not a decorative glass you hang on your wall. It is a mirror of truth (James 1:23–25). But here is the uncomfortable reality: many of us would rather live with spiritual filters than face God’s mirror. We polish the outside while ignoring the inside. We play Christiani...
