1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
I’m thankful to God for being with me and for giving me so many miracles. There were times when I had no place to live and no food, God didn’t leave me… There were times when I felt so helpless and trapped, and even then God showed me His mercy.. Thank you Lord for my life and for being so faithful and so near!
What are you thankful for?

I love the story of Peter walking on water. Sure, we remember Jesus walked on water, but so did Peter. This means that the miraculous is available to all of us, if we have our focus right.
Let’s look at it. It is Matthew 14:22-33. The story starts after Jesus has fed 5,000 people with just five loaves of bread and two fish. Continue reading “Walking Towards Jesus”
I love this story of a Dad and a son in the store. A son saw a candy and kept asking Daddy to buy it for him. If the father knew that the candy his son was asking for was actually bad for him, do you think he would still buy it or would he choose something else instead? If he was a loving father who cared about his son’s health, would he listen to his little boy who didn’t necessarily have good judgement and buy the candy anyway or would he do the right thing for his son that would not hurt him at the end?
In life, we have many doors to open and many paths to choose from. We don’t know what choice will actually be the right one for us. That’s what makes life so interesting and unpredictable and God SO REAL! Being impatient, we can rush things and make wrong decisions that can harm us at the end. When we rely on God, we trust Him to choose the right path for us because He knows what’s best for us.
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
6 In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.

Guys, I read a heart breaking story today, and I wanted to share it with you as it truly shows what unconditional love and loyalty is (Based on a true story):
A neighbor decided to sink his dog. He was old, nearly deaf and could hardly walk. He dropped his dog off the boat, but the dog swam right to him. When he hit his dog with the paddle, he fell in the water by accident and started sinking himself.
Covered in blood, the dog swam to his master, grabbed him by the hand and brought him to the shore, saving his life.
