    Although we know that we should cultivate an attitude of Gratitude to God and to Man, the problem is that we are more inclined to grumble and complain, while there may be ten things for which we be Grateful for, we tend to focus on the one thing that irks us.

     | 2,323 views

    If anyone was considered irrelevant, it would have been Jesus, born to poor parents, in a back-water town, in a land under the thumb of a brutal regime. But Jesus, "Mr. Irrelevant", was actually Mr. Indespensable.

    When God created the world, he created certain laws and when we see these certain laws, it is God’s usual action. I mean by usual actions, that when an apple turns lose its tree, it falls to the ground. That is called the law of gravity and it is God’s us

    It's interesting to me that Jesus called His disciples to leave the crowd and His disciples and they experience some spiritual warfare as they cross to the other side of the lake. Why would Jesus miss this opportunity, when He had a crowd gathered?

    Part 10 - Matthew 8:18-34 - WHEN JESUS SKIPS OUT ON CHURCH, YOU KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG! I remember as a young student Pastor being invited to a Church for afternoon tea. They said they wanted to pray for me. What I didn't realise is that they wanted to pray for me to be their Pastor. At the end ...read more
