    We all have names and are known by them. However, sometimes, our true selves are not reflected in these names. God, on the other hand, sees us for who we truly are. He calls us by our names, not as the world does. Zacchaeus was such a person, known by a name but seen differently by God.

    We all have names by which people know us. Our names are a way for others to identify and recognize us. However, there are times when people fail to see us for who we truly are. But God sees us beyond our names; He sees our true selves. God calls us by our names, not as the world does. Zacchaeus ...read more

    Today, we will discuss the importance of making a commitment to serve God.

Humility is super important, especially for leaders. Jesus was humble even before His baptism. He gave up everything, even His life, ...read more
