Free Choice

Posted on 24th May 2020, by [email protected]
Theologians have long debated how we humans can have true freedom of choice when our sovereign, omnipotent God is in control of everything and has the power to do anything. The principle is that God wants us to accept His unconditional love — the ultimate expression of which is the sacrifice of Jesus for our  […]

Misunderstood

Posted on 5th May 2020, by [email protected]

A newborn first communicates with facial expressions, crying, and other sounds, but soon utters words. Normally it is “mommy” or “dada” (although “no” is often spoken early on), but there are exceptions. One day, my  […]

Willing To Try?

Posted on 5th May 2020, by [email protected]
God has chosen ordinary people — you and me — to help others. Occasionally, it is for something very significant, but usually, it is for something small. However, in every case, we have to be willing to try in order for God to use us. Where I now live, there is a self-serve breakfast buffet.  […]

Ready And Willing?

Posted on 14th April 2020, by [email protected]

On June 29th (2018), in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, a blind gentleman stumbled and fell from the subway platform onto the tracks. A brave young man jumped onto the tracks and, with the help of others, was  […]

Isaiah 11:6b – And a little child shall lead them. (NKJV) Several years ago, I learned two profound lessons from a young girl. 1. When you become aware of a problem, always try to figure out how you can help. My wife and I had decided to fly from Toronto to Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada, to  […]
