Our work – an act of WORSHIP
Work can be enjoyable, rewarding, exhausting or challenging, sometimes because of the people with whom we must work with, rather than the work itself. When we use our God-given skills, all work can be an act of worship. When God commanded Abraham to sacrifice his...
Naurava nainen
Kun olin nuori, me tytöt nauroimme paljon – ihan sydämemme pohjasta. Se kuului nuoruuteen; oli vain joskus niin hauskaa, melkeinpä tyhjästä. Myöhemmin, kun kasvoimme, joku saattoi hillitä meitä. Mutta jos jotkut omaavat luonteessaan ilon, se pulpahtelee väkisinkin...
What did Peter have?
In Acts 3:1-6 we read about Peter and John going up to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. A man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple to ask for alms from those entering the temple. Seeing Peter and John about...
Drawing close to God during trials
What do you normally do when in pain, or during trials, suffering, loneliness, sorrows and difficulties? Acts 14 tells us much about Paul and Barnabus, how they preached the Gospel and healed the sick in Iconium and Lystra. Some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and...
SEEKING AND TRUSTING FATHER GOD FIRST

GOD HAS NO LIMITS
When we feel limited, the Lord is limitless. He has no limitations or restrictions or shortcomings like we have. He can and will do all that He promises to do for us. He sees our challenges as opportunities to bring glory, praise and honour to Him. In Matthew...

Äidin kädet- Äitienpäivänä 11.5.2025
Elämän matka oli hiipunut sairasvuoteelle. Äiti yritti puhua, mutta hänen puhekykynsä ei enää toiminut. Olisi ollut vielä asiaa, mutta emme enää voineet ymmärtää häntä. Ääni ei enää tuottanut selvää puhetta. Mutta pyysimme äitiä puristamaan kättämme, jos hän...
WE FLOURISH IN JESUS
“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. Abide in...
