Journey with Hope

James asks a question in James 4:14 that many of us ask, " What is your life?" . He answers his own question by saying that it is a...

As Christians, we are called to be living sacrifices, consumed and empowered by the fire of the Holy Spirit. This fire purifies, sanctifies, and equips us to live boldly, serve others, and fan into flame the gifts God has given us. When we cooperate with the Spirit, our lives become a powerful witness, reflecting Christ’s love and strength to the world.

In Matthew 21:28-32, we have the Parable of the Two Sons. In this chapter, Jesus is teaching many things to the Pharisees. The...

God equips us with all we need to live faithfully, but diligence is key. A diligent Christian grows in virtue, knowledge, and love, bears fruit, and endures trials. Like a grateful student striving to honor a benefactor, we pursue holiness, relying on the Holy Spirit, so that one day we enter God’s everlasting kingdom with joy and reward.

Are self-help books enough to truly change us? Jesus’ parable of the unclean spirit (Matthew 12:43-45) shows that cleaning up our lives or following rules isn’t enough—without the Holy Spirit, our “house” remains empty. True transformation starts in the heart, guided by God’s Spirit, not by self-effort or appearances. Walk in the Spirit, bear fruit, and let God fill what self-help can’t.

Passover is more than a Jewish remembrance—it is the foundation of redemption. Just as God delivered Israel from slavery through the blood of a spotless lamb, Christ became our Passover, freeing us from bondage to sin through His sacrifice. The Exodus points to Jesus: the true Israel, and the mediator of a New Covenant of grace written on our hearts. His death and resurrection are our exodus—our way out of sin and death—and by believing in Him, we have passed over from death

Following rules isn’t the same as loving God. The Pharisees followed every law but missed the heart of worship—love, mercy, and faith. Jesus calls us to something greater: a relationship, not a checklist. Only in Him do we find true rest for our souls.
