    Golden

    During trials and tribulations, our faith is often put to the test. Like gold that is refined in the fire, our faith is refined through the challenges we face. As I study into the book of Job, I am reminded of the importance of staying steadfast in our faith even in the most difficult circumstances. Job, a blameless man, endured unimaginable suffering yet never wavered in his faith. His story serves as a powerful reminder of the strength that can be found in faith. Faith Tested, Faith Proven In the life of Job, we witness a profound exploration of faith under pressure. This story vividly illustrates how even the most…

    A Little Bit Of Faith

    To begin this blog, I extend my heartfelt gratitude to my Pastor Kibsaim Jimenez, whose early morning prayers at 4 AM on weekdays have been a profound source of inspiration for today’s blog. I will share the link to his YouTube channel below. A small measure of faith can truly work wonders, and I am living proof of that. Several years ago, I found myself in a dark place, contemplating that ending my life would be the simplest escape from the overwhelming negativity around me. It was not until I encountered Jesus Christ and felt His presence that I realized there was hope. Though my faith was small, it was…

    Jesus Remains The Same God

    Embracing God’s Constancy in Times of Difficulty Embracing God’s constancy means anchoring ourselves in His promises when everything else feels uncertain. It’s understanding that even when we can’t see the way forward, we’re being guided by the Spirit. This assurance allows us to face challenges not just with hope, but with peace knowing that we are not navigating our troubles alone. During life’s storms, it’s easy to feel adrift and alone. However, it’s precisely in these times that we can lean into the unwavering presence of Jesus. Hebrews 13:8 reminds us, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” This isn’t just a comforting thought—it’s a steadfast promise.…

    Who Is Jesus?

    Who Is Jesus? Jesus is the Son of God, the Messiah, that’s a summarized answer, but sometimes we fail to observe the whole meaning, just saying the name Jesus can change the atmosphere. Our Father in Heaven sent his only son on a mission, and it all started with Adam and Eve when they ate from the forbidden fruit. Jesus knew that his purpose here on earth was to redeem us through his perfect life, his sacrifice of salvation, and his victorious resurrection. Even though he was sent from our Father in Heaven he had a choice to end the mission at any given moment, but he didn’t because of…
