TUNED TO HIS FREQUENCY.  A radio is designed to receive many frequencies. However, if you want to listen to a particular station, you must tune in to the correct frequency. Otherwise, the station may be broadcasting clearly, but you will miss everything it is saying. Recently, this picture came to mind as I reflected on David’s life. When the prophet

AND THEN… ONE DAY The other morning, I opened my Bible to Ruth chapter three and was immediately arrested by the first two words: “One day…” Those two words sat quietly on the page, and I decided to sit with them. My mind went back and forth as they seemed to carry an unexpected weight. The Book of Ruth is

WHAT DO YOU SEE? Fara looked in the mirror. The image appeared blurred. But this was definitely her. She leaned closer. The face looking back at her was familiar. The eyes were hers. The smile lines were hers. The tiny scar above her eyebrow was hers. Yet something felt strangely unfamiliar. “Why do I not recognise myself?” she wondered. The

BURDENS THAT EXCEED OUR VOCABULARY.  There are burdens we can explain. There are burdens we can describe. And then there are burdens that exceed our vocabulary. One morning, Terra got up as usual and quietly knelt by the side of her bed to pray. The words of a popular gospel song kept ringing in her mind: “Way maker, miracle worker,

She remembered vividly how excited she had been when approaching her sixtieth year. There had been so much positive anticipation. Somehow, that excitement was nowhere in sight now. What had happened to the

WHEN GOD TRUSTS YOU WITH LITTLE.  This topic appeared interesting when it first came to me. I kept thinking, “Lord, how do I go about this? How do You want me to build on this?” And God helped me put these thoughts together. So I bring this word to encourage anyone like me who is, or has ever been, at

GRACE THAT OUTLIVES MISTAKES.  There are moments in life when the memory of some things you did in the past, tries to become louder than what God has said about you in His word. Mistakes can echo, regrets can linger, and shame often attempts to rewrite identity. But heaven operates with a different voice—Grace. Grace is not God ignoring sin;

A PROVERBS 31 WOMAN AT 90: CELEBRATING  A LIFE OF GRACE, STRENGTH, AND FAITH.  MODUPE OLUFUNMILAYO JAIYESIMI A couple of days ago, my mother turned ninety.
