https://odb.org/MY/2022/04/08/permanent-address Those of us who have moved homes will know what a major hassle that is. I moved from my varsity days from rooms to rooms and finally to two rented homes shared with my brother in law when I got married. Later we moved to our own home, bought at a time when newContinue reading “A Permanent Address”

https://odb.org/MY/2022/04/07/real-hospitality It didn’t happen often but there were times during my Varsity days when I had to skip a meal or downgrade a meal to something simpler like a packet of nasi lemak or just roti canai because I had ran out of money that month. I remembered that my pastor then was perplexed thatContinue reading “Showing A Little Kindness”

https://odb.org/MY/2022/04/06/parking-lot-quarrel I guess nearly everyone would have experienced this before, some of us more but I think at least once in our life. We were so lifted up during the Sunday worship service, maybe we had a very good time interacting with God and was filled in His presence during worship. Or we were soContinue reading “Euphoria and Disappointment”

https://odb.org/MY/2022/04/05/a-good-work Our journey with God begins the day we accepted Christ in our lives. Different ones of us have a different start. Some of us might have started in our teens.

https://odb.org/MY/2022/04/03/gods-great-love-2 Different ones of us have a different past before we became a believer in Christ. Some who knew Christ in our teenage years have less of a past and yet as we grow up as a Christian, we were probably not perfect and thus have our fair share of our “past” until one dayContinue reading “Compassion of God”

https://odb.org/MY/2022/04/01/witness-marks I think in the current context of profileration and easy assessibility of information, people are less likely to actually leave behind traces of how things are done on the thing itself. This is because we just need to make a search in Google or YouTube and the answers should be there. Also present ageContinue reading “Witness Marks”

https://odb.org/MY/2022/03/31/gods-embassy One of the things I always remembered when I did Public International Law as a subject in University was that an embassy in a foreign land is an extension of a nation. Meaning to say that the sovereignty of a nation extends to the land upon which the embassy sits although in actual factContinue reading “Our Homes as God’s Embassy”

https://odb.org/MY/2022/03/30/god-cleans-the-stains In ancient times, during the time of Israel and Judah, God initiated the ritual of a sin offering to atone for the sins of children of Israel. It was a corporate act and the sin offering was needed as man on his own was unable to meet the exact standards of the Law, toContinue reading “Dealing with Sin”

https://odb.org/MY/2022/03/29/past-the-boundaries-of-knowing The Covid-19 pandemic, now turning endemic, has turned upside down many lives across the world. From upheavals in families caused by lost lives, children losing both parents to the virus to restaurants and businesses closed for good as the prolonged lack of income just meant that they can’t continue paying their workers, their rentContinue reading “Trusting in the things unseen”
