Becoming Tried and True (The mindset for purging yourself)

 In a world of fleeting trends, the human spirit seeks lasting reliability – the tried and true. Paul’s words to Timothy offer profound insight: “If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.” (2 Timothy 2:21). This verse unveils that being truly “tried and true” in God’s eyes isn't about perfection, but deliberate purging and preparation. Paul emphasizes purging oneself “from these” – the ignoble, false teachings and deviations from truth. Becoming a vessel of honor requires actively removing defilements that hinder our usefulness to God, demanding conscious effort and integrity. This purging leads to becoming a “vessel unto honour,” like a cleansed artifact restored for purpose. When purified, we become instruments God uses with dignity, reflecting His glory. The prepared vessel is also “sanctified,” set apart for God’s holy purpose, a continuous yielding to His tra...

The way you have not passed before

Hey friend, I was thinking about something today that I really feel like you need to hear, especially as you keep growing in your walk with God. It’s something simple but super important, and honestly, it’s something I wish someone had explained to me earlier. You know how after you’ve been following God for a while, it can start to feel like you kinda "get it"? Like you know the drill — you pray, you read your Bible, you try to be a good person, and you feel like you and God are in a rhythm. And that’s awesome — it shows growth! But here’s the catch: sometimes, without even realizing it, we start to think we’ve got things under control. We start acting like we can walk side-by-side with God, almost like we’re partners in this thing. We treat it like a 50/50 relationship, where we put in our part and expect God to do His part too. But that’s not how it works, man. And if we’re not careful, that kind of thinking can actually trip us up. There’s this powerful reminder in th...

The Prodigal Son (Another Perspective)

 Growing up i was taught the parable of the prodigal son as was most people born into a Christian community I n the story, a father has two sons. The younger son asks for inheritance from his father, who grants his son's request. This  radical ungrateful  son, however, is  wasteful and extravagant,  taking all his inheritance and left home and due to his inexperience squandered  his fortune  and  became broke had to suffer dire consequences of condescending even lower than the level his fathers servants just to survive . , he came to his senses and decided to return home intending to beg his father to accept him back as a servant. To the son's surprise, he is not scorned by his father but is welcomed back with celebration and a welcoming party. Envious, the older son refuses to participate in the festivities. The father tells the older son: "you are ever with me, and all that I have is yours, but thy younger brother was lost and now he is found." ...

The Psychology of Work

Why do people get tired of work is it because the work is actually stressful so because the work is too voluminous or is it just the perspective of the work that actually makes them get tired so quickly, 

life partner

From way back as I can remember I've been taught that a man searches for his wife find his wife and marries her even the Bible is usually quoted they will tell you he who finds a wife has found a good thing and obtain favour from the Lord but this morning I go give away for that in the Bible like Jesus normally does and I say in the beginning it was not so and support my theory our quote Genesis the book that talks about the beginning 2:22 3DS under which the Lord God had taken from man made he woman and brought her into man What this place seems to tell me is that at the very beginning God wanted to be the one that will pick a wife and bring to us I didn't want us to go through the stress of going to search for a while if you want us to go to the child ever that is inevitable when a man tries to find a wife for his self he wanted to bring us the perfect one the one that will compliment us very well so then why did God push the job to us the job of finding a wife ourselves well...

The Cover of Night: A Reflection on Labor, Rest, and Renewal

As the dawn fades, the time to rest comes. Man will rest from his labors under the cover of night. This simple, poetic thought carries a timeless truth, one that echoes through human experience across centuries and cultures. Each day we rise with purpose, filled with tasks, ambitions, hopes, and duties. We labor under the sun, striving to build, to nurture, to improve, to endure. But inevitably, the day must end. The sun must set. And we, creatures of time and limitation, must submit to the sacred rhythm of rest. Nightfall reminds us that life is not endless toil. It is a cycle of effort and renewal, of sowing and reaping, of rising and laying down. Let’s take a deeper look at what it means to rest from our labors under the cover of night, and why embracing this natural rhythm is vital for our souls, our bodies, and even our relationship with the divine. The Sacredness of Labor From the beginning, human beings have been called to work. Genesis 2:15 says, “The Lord God took the man...
