(Philippians 1:21)
For to me, living is Christ and dying is gain.
Another day, another atheist emphatically saying there is no God and religions were made up. This woman was so sure and certain that her views were pasted in many prominent places. It made me wonder how she detests people who have the same zeal yet totally opposite view. They accuse each other of being a fraud.
(Genesis 50:15)
Realizing that their father was dead, Joseph's brothers said, "What if Joseph still bears a grudge against us and pays us back in full for all the wrong that we did to him?"
Fear is a strange thing that lingers on and on. We want others to forget all the terrible things we did in the past. We hope they will not remember our sins, guilts and mistakes. We do not want others to discover our skeletons. Many people go at length to hide them so that no one will ever find out about our dark or shady pasts. On the other hand, those who think they have nothing to hide wonder why people live in fear.
(Psalm 149:4)
Let the faithful exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their couches.
Who sings for joy on their couches? I know. When the Maple Leafs win their division, there will be joyful singing on the couches of many fans. Never mind that they may not win the Stanley Cup. We see sports fans hooting and hollering with joy when their teams win.
(Romans 12:10,11)
Love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honour. Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord.
