August 2 Kind Correction-James 5:19-20

I can easily lose direction when I visit some area not often frequented in the night time. When I drove around two streets and still could not figure out the place I wanted to go, I began to panic. Hopefully I could see some house down at the corner still lit up so I could ask for help. To avoid this situation from happening again I usually check my map book and mark the route on a piece of paper even before the age of GPS is around. I still do the old fashion way even though I have the GPS today. GPS can be in trouble too when I visit some newly developed area of the city.

We can get in the wrong path if we acquaint with some wrong friends too. The point is we need to get out of the situation as soon as possible. If we insist on staying in the same place or being perplexed in that direction, sooner or later we would be in deep trouble. Many times our family or brothers and sisters in church will notice our unusual behaviour. They may question our concern that something is not right. At this time we should alert ourselves for potential problems. Who among us hasn’t needed to be “brought back” by those who care for us from paths or actions, decisions or desires that could’ve been damaging? Who knows what harm might have been done to ourselves or others had someone not courageously intervened at the right time.

Father, keep me from straying from Your truth and grant me courage to help bring back those who are wandering.

February 26, 2021 Facing Fear – Psalms 56:3-11

When someone made up some story of false accusation or slander against us, how would you handle this kind of situation. It is quite common in a political campaign or an election. This really made our life upside down and distressful. The only solution is to clarify...

February 25, 2021 To Be Human – Philippians 4:6-8

There is an old Chinese adage: A real man sheds blood but not tears. That implies if one cries to show that he is weak. So when we were young as a boy, we tried not to cry for any reasons. But when I grew older I learned from books saying that crying was a sign to...
