https://odb.org/2024/05/02/a-creator-we-can-trust John 3:16 is probably the most well-known verse in the bible in the sense that if there is a verse that believers can memorise, it is likely John 3:16. It is the verse that was introduced to me by a friend who was preaching Christ to me when I was just a child, andContinue reading “God gave His only begotten Son”

True peace
https://odb.org/2024/04/23/the-true-peacemaker Warring nations have been at it since time immemorial. Most of us, I would think, hope for an end to wars and sufferings, having heard of the pain and sufferings brought about by the two World Wars. Most of us are not old enough to have experienced WW2 in Malaya, the cruelty and theContinue reading “True peace”
Be at home
https://odb.org/2024/04/15/longing-for-home-3 Although some of us may treat our workplace as just a place to earn a living, feeling at home at our workplace helps us to be happy and contented at work, ultimately pushing us to make an effective contribution to our respective organisations. We must fit in whether with the people or the workContinue reading “Be at home”
5 things to be thankful
https://odb.org/2024/04/07/five-good-things It is good to be thankful for who we are today and for the things that we have, especially to Creator God, our Heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, our Lord, and Saviour. As today’s ODB article teaches, there are positive benefits to thankfulness and gratefulness. For example, research indicates that people who are intentionallyContinue reading “5 things to be thankful”
He has put eternity in our hearts
https://odb.org/2024/04/05/now-and-forever Ecclesiastes is indeed a peculiar wisdom book in the Bible as Solomon seemed to say everything is vanity or meaningless. Except for one thing, and that is knowing God. Thus, we live and die. We work hard to earn a living. We start a family and raise children. We have possessions. But we canContinue reading “He has put eternity in our hearts”
Realm of the dead
https://odb.org/2024/03/11/embrace-today I think it’s tragic that when we are about to die that we regret not having made much of our life that God gave us. Like in the novel, Nicola, who was born with wealth and talents, felt she had wasted her life and thus refused to acknowledge that she has terminal cancer. IContinue reading “Realm of the dead”
God’s creation
https://odb.org/2024/03/10/god-made-them-all The diversity of nature is a testament to the magnificent power and glory of God from the world of microorganisms of bacteria, cells, and viruses to the oceanic plankton, algae that produce as much as half of the earth’s oxygen. I guess that the other half is produced by the photosynthesis of plants. TheContinue reading “God’s creation”
Good character
https://odb.org/2024/02/22/walk-in-my-shoes We all know Christian life is a journey to eternity that passes through this life on earth. Our passage through this life is temporal since eternity is our destiny. But like animals on the African plains, we need to eat to continue living although air is for all to breathe. As human beings livingContinue reading “Good character”
River of Living Waters
https://odb.org/2024/01/30/a-refreshing-king I think even without ever living in the desert, we may envisage the importance of having water. Like the air we breathe, we need water to live. Nearly 51% of our blood consists of water, and 60% of our bodies is H2O. You may say that water and air are the sources of life.Continue reading “River of Living Waters”
