THE LATIN CRUCIFIX

  THE LATIN CRUCIFIX Understanding Purpose A Daystar Masterpiece on Sacrifice What is purpose? Why are you here? What comes next, and what if every pursuit remains meaningless? What is life hereafter, and how does it feel to exit this cosmic space as a hypostatic figure? What is the objective of faith if it remains enclosed within a callous heart? Where does mission fit into our daily living? What is the cure for a bruised soul in a dark and festering world? What can be done, and what awaits us hereafter? These are the questions we deeply fear and answer slowly. It is why we often turn our eyes away from the true reason for existence, ignoring the glare of mission in a world we encountered in time. Why we live is what will echo throughout eternity. Each day clangs against another, foretelling a story without words and weaving a tapestry of impact with the hands of sacrifice. Someday, we will surely leave this world. Now, it is incumbent upon you to discover the meaning of life in C...

THE ROLE OF DISCOMFORT

  THE ROLE OF DISCOMFORT Discontinuing Unwanted Habits There are things that multiply in our lives because of excess comfort. Discomfort has a way of curbing unwanted patterns, thus severing the growth of destructive habits and routines that fight progress. Many unhealthy desires thrive in environments of ease, convenience, and unchecked indulgence. Pressure, discipline, and necessary hardship often expose what comfort conceals. It was not until the early twentieth century that world population began to skyrocket into the billions because of the advancement of science and medicine to combat diseases that were once major contributors to the decline of demographic population after pandemics and widespread outbreaks. What formerly restrained population growth was gradually subdued by innovations that reduced discomfort, pain, and mortality. Interestingly, the word “disease” can be viewed as “dis-ease” — the absence of ease or comfort. Though linguistically the word has a deeper etymol...

STAY IN YOUR LANE

  STAY IN YOUR LANE Comparison weakens concentration This life is a race, yet not a competition. It takes grit and decisive action to stay dominant in this world. You have a role to play if you'll ever make a difference early in this life. My counsel to you is that you learn to stay in your lane, run your race and mind your business if you’ll ever be productive. This way, you’ll have more time to develop yourself and prepare for what lies before you. Learn the discipline to focus on your track, to stay alone when necessary, and to use your mind thoroughly to construct a future that counts. Add value to your path. We will each be confronted with customized formats of obstacles that suit our individual purpose. This requires hyper-focus to remain progressive. What distracts one person may not distract another. What breaks one man may be the very thing designed to strengthen another. Your journey is unique, and so are the battles attached to it. Your assignment is not to compete with ...

OUR EFFORTS ARE EVERLASTING SEEDS

  OUR EFFORTS ARE EVERLASTING SEEDS They’ll Never Go Unnoticed Not long ago, a circa two-thousand-year-old seed was discovered — one at Masada (a fortress), and others in the Qumran Caves (a cave region). These seeds, having survived two millennia, were found to still be viable — a remarkable demonstration of seed longevity under preserved conditions. When subjected to the right conditions, the seeds sprouted. The seed from Masada produced a male date palm (which did not bear fruit), while other ancient seeds from the Qumran region later produced female trees that yielded edible fruit. This is deeply revelatory of the power of a seed — whether as a thought, deed, or action. These inputs never go unnoticed. They may lie dormant, but they sprout when the time is right. Indeed, God cannot be mocked — whatever a man sows, that he will also reap (Galatians 6:7). My dear, I encourage you: press on in that deed and action. Commit yourself fully to the business and ministry you are involve...

YOU’RE WORTH EVERY GOOD EXPERIENCE

  YOU’RE WORTH EVERY GOOD EXPERIENCE Never Belittle Yourself, Ever You have a choice in enjoying the blessings of God. The Lord will not force His goodness upon your life—you must be willing to open your heart to new experiences, irrespective of past outcomes. Be fully persuaded that there is a better life in Christ. In 2 Samuel 19, David desired to show kindness to Barzillai in his old age, inviting him to come and be sustained at the king’s table. But Barzillai declined, not out of dishonor, but because he felt limited by age and no longer able to fully enjoy such privileges (2 Samuel 19:35–37). Though his decision was personal, he saw himself as a burden in the face of opportunity. His perspective was faulty and by that, He missed a good opportunity.  This reveals something profound: sometimes, what is meant to bless us can be declined because of how we see ourselves or what we believe we can handle or enjoy. My dear, nothing is too good for you. You are worth every brand-n...

EVERY PHASE OF YOUR LIFE IS USEFUL

  EVERY PHASE OF YOUR LIFE IS USEFUL  Never Underestimate Your Potentials It is unfortunate how our world often prioritizes secular activity above the impact of godly allegiance. Yet Scripture reveals a higher order. Psalms 92:13-19 paraphrased states,      "Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God… they shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing.". The courts of our God represents the outside world. To put succinctly, your service and commitment in the house of God is your guarantee of an ever flourishing life in the business world out there. Commit to the house of God, and you'll flourish outside : in the courts : in your engagements, your business and activities. The opening Scripture contextually alludes us to the date palm, an all useful species that thrives on barren soil. Listen, regardless of your background, you have an innate (God-embedded) potential to thrive on every side...

YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO SEE WHAT GOD SEES

  YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO SEE WHAT GOD SEES We Have The Mind Of Christ  “…by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature , having escaped the corruption that is in the world because of sinful desire.” | Second Epistle of Peter 1:4.  Having the mind of Christ is one of the most extraordinary revelations and reality we have today. If you'd believe this truth, you'll be a superman demonstrating God-kind ideas in a human world. Consider the craniopagus (head-joined congenital defect) of the popular Hogan twins (Krista and Tatiana, born 2006).         Study shows they were joined at the head with separate brains interconnected by a "thalamic bridge" — what stood out for me was the fact that they shared a neural pathway. This meant one twin could actually see what the other twin was seeing. My goodness!     I was stunned at this medical discovery, that there was e...
