Psalm 128:1-4 (NLT) says: “How joyful are those who fear the Lord— all who follow his ways! You will enjoy the fruit of your labour. How joyful and prosperous you will be! Your wife will be like a fruitful grapevine, flourishing within your home. Your children will be like vigorous young olive trees as they…

Psalm 127:1 (NLT) says, “Unless the Lord builds a house, the work of the builders is wasted.” This verse has made me reflect deeply on life and the many things we strive to achieve. One consistent prayer in my life has been thanking God for creating us to be completely dependent on Him. He designed…

Psalm 124:7 NLT says, “We escaped like a bird from a hunter’s trap. The trap is broken, and we are free!” This verse beautifully captures my testimony of freedom and deliverance. I have always loved God, loved serving Him, and cherished being in His house. However, for many years, I wasn’t free to fully live…

Hosea 2:19-20 NLT“[19] I will make you my wife forever, showing you righteousness and justice, unfailing love and compassion. [20] I will be faithful to you and make you mine, and you will finally know me as the Lord.” A few weeks ago, I went shopping with my best friend of 14 years. She was…

My mum would wonder why, especially since she’d buy me lovely tops, but I would always layer them with sweaters. This habit wasn’t forced; it just felt more comfortable and…

A few days ago, I had a deep realisation about how the enemy tries to infiltrate our lives—through our thoughts. It struck me that the devil plants harmful ideas in our minds, feeding them until we start believing lies about ourselves. He twists our deepest insecurities into traps, using them to torment us, pushing us…

Psalm 119:101, 104, 118 (NLT) says,”I have refused to walk on any evil path, so that I may remain obedient to your word.” “Your commandments give me understanding; no wonder I hate every false way of life.” “But you have rejected all who stray from your decrees. They are only fooling themselves.” These verses resonated…

Unconditional love is love without requirements or conditions. It’s the kind of love that stands without needing a “because”—it simply exists. When we say, “I love you because…,” we attach our love to a specific reason. But with this approach, love becomes conditional, dependent on meeting expectations. For instance, if we love someone because they’re…
