https://odb.org/2023/10/08/wisdom-we-need Proverbs 4 teaches that we should follow the path of wisdom as it is like the morning sun, shining brighly till the full day of light. Contrast with the way of the wicked, which is like deep darkness for they do not know what makes them stumble. In the way of wisdom, our pathsContinue reading “The way of wisdom”

https://odb.org/2023/10/06/what-could-be-better Indeed, what could be better than serving the one and only living God? He is after all the creator of heaven and earth and everything in them. He was there at the beginning and will be here at the end of time. We all know that the Christian faith can not be practised inContinue reading “Serving God”

https://odb.org/2023/10/05/ready-to-go-2 “For me, to live is Christ and to die is gain” is one of the most well-known sayings of Paul (Philippians 1:21), which, to me, is probably the epitome of what our faith is all about. This is because when we pass on, we know that we will be with Christ in heaven, andContinue reading “To live is Christ”

https://odb.org/2023/10/04/finding-life-2 I was fascinated by Jesus the day I started reading the English-Malay New Testament that was on the bookshelf of my home. I think I was probably around 9 or 10. It was only when I was 14 that I started taking classes on Jesus Christ that I finally accepted Christ into my life.Continue reading “Believing in Jesus”

https://odb.org/2023/10/03/i-can-see-you While it is great to aspire to see Jesus face to face one day and live with Him in the new heaven and new earth at the end of time, we should be thankful that the Holy Spirit has removed the scales from our eyes that we are able to grasp and understand spiritualContinue reading “Seeing Jesus”

https://odb.org/2023/10/02/the-masterpiece-within I think whether it is a question of uncovering God’s masterpiece within us or God working in our lives as it is more popularly understood, we still need to do our part. Transformation does not work like a magic wand. In a business, even experienced senior people applying formulas from other places will notContinue reading “The masterpiece within”

https://odb.org/2023/10/01/elegant-design I went AWOL last week as I was away on vacation, visiting Daniel in beautiful and cosmopolitan Melbourne. Had a wonderful time enjoying its good vibes and excellent cuisine. I posted some photos on my insta page – feel free to have a look when you are free at instagram.com/ronlim68/. Praise the Lord forContinue reading “God’s creation”

https://odb.org/2023/09/21/god-covers-our-sin When we read John 8:1-11, the emphasis is, of course, that no one, as well as Jesus, condemned the woman caught in adultery. The Jewish leaders wanted to entrap Jesus with the question of what you do to the woman in adultery as, seemingly, the law of Moses would have had the woman stonedContinue reading “Christ and our sins”

https://odb.org/2023/09/20/shooting-ourselves-in-the-foot In Mark 10:35-45, John and James, the sons of Zebedee, asked Jesus that they be placed at the right and left hands of Jesus. In other words, in the Kingdom of God that Jesus was advocating, they wanted to be No.2 and No.3. Jesus answered them by saying they didn’t know what they wereContinue reading “Leaders in the Kingdom of God”

https://odb.org/2023/09/19/faithful-but-not-forgotten Faith is the substance of things hoped for; evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 1:1 (NKJV). Meaning to say that even though reality does not yet reflect our hope, we persevere in believing God, trusting God. Although we can not see God, for He is spirit, we still cling on to Him in faith.Continue reading “Faith”
