Remember your creator and honor your maker.  James 4:10 Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up.              There may be times where you think that you deserve to be praised for the hardwork that you do, the good deed you portrait, being the smartest one in the room or even when you're doing great in life. In those times, we tend to forget about our Creator, God the Father up in heaven, we think of our own self; we become selfish; we sin against God.  At times we think we have it all, we think of our own self, our own strength, our own will, our money, our power, our status, above anything else and we tremble, we fall short of God's glory.  The Bible tells us that every good gift and every perfect present comes from heaven, it comes down from God, the Creator of the heavenly lights who does not change or cause darkness by turning (James 1:17) .  The moment you want to you think higher of yourself, remember your ...

WOW!       The story of Zacchaeus demonstrates the love of God; God loves sinners too; God loves everyone. Jesus acted it out while His time here on earth.

You're not a mistake, you were made for a purpose.  You were chosen according to the purpose of God the Father and were made a holy people by his Spirit, to obey Jesus Christ and be purified by his blood. May grace and peace be yours in full measure  (1Peter 1:2) . Many times we tend to feel that were alone, we feel left out, hopeless, broken, incomplete, unwanted, worthless and all that worries us. These feelings drags us down, it troubles us, it causes us pain and we suffer, we grief and we are hurt. And when in trouble we look for help in the wrong places, we follow the wrong crowd, we fall into the devils trap. We tend to search for happiness, for answers, for a solution in all the wrong places, and we end up feeling more hurt and more troubled. We rely much on what we think is good for us, we trust in our own understanding most of the time, we sin and forget about God. We forget about our Creator, the Lord God who created the universe, created  us. In Isaiah 64 ...
