"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it." - 1 Corinthians 10:13

"[1] Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. [2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. [3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing." - 1 Corinthians 13:1-3

"Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth; Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things." - 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

The Mission: In these devotionals, I seek not to preach, but to share a journey of faith, guided by God's wisdom. My aim is not to impart my own wisdom, but to serve as a conduit for the divine messages that resonate through the scriptures. The Process: Prayerful Beginnings: Each day starts with a prayer, an open-hearted conversation with God, seeking guidance on the message to be shared. Scripture Selection: Since there is no bad verse in the Bible, a verse of scripture is randomly chosen. Or if I feel a heavy drawing to a specific topic I search the Word for the appropriate verse that deals with that topic. Contextual Understanding: I delve into the rich background of the chosen verse, exploring who spoke these words, to whom they were addressed, and what was the underlying message. This contextual study is deepened by examining why the message was delivered, uncovering the intent and the circumstances that inspired these words. Equally important is how the message was communicated, whether through parables, direct teachings, or poetic expressions, revealing the method behind the scripture's enduring impact. This comprehensive exploration helps in grasping the broader meaning, connecting us more deeply with the divine wisdom embedded in each verse. Reflective Mediation: Armed with knowledge and guided by prayer, I reflect on the verse. This reflection is not just an intellectual exercise but a spiritual experience, seeking to understand how this verse speaks to different hearts in different ways. Diverse Messages: The devotionals are crafted to resonate with a wide array of believers - from those new to faith to those who have walked with God for years. Each message is intended to touch hearts, whether as a gentle reminder, a spark of realization, or a comforting assurance. Humble Servitude: Above all, I recognize that these messages are not of my own making. I am but a mere instrument in God's hands, tasked with documenting and sharing His word. My role is that of a documentarian, capturing the divine insights revealed through me. The Belief: "If you have ears, you will hear; if you have eyes, you will see." These words of Jesus Christ guide these devotionals. I understand that not all messages are for all moments, but each is crafted with the hope that it will find those who need it most at the right time.

Growing up in Florida as the eldest of five in a devout Christian family, my life was deeply rooted in the church. Baptized and filled with the Holy Spirit in my teens, I attended the church's private school until high school graduation in 2000. However, post-graduation, I drifted from the church and lived without serving God for 22 years. Despite this distance, my belief in God never waned. In 2009, I married, and we're blessed with two sons. My spiritual awakening began in 2023. Despite trying to manage a financial crisis on my own, it was an answered prayer that reignited my faith. Desperately needing a specific amount of money, I prayed for divine intervention after all attempts failed. Miraculously, a veteran organization unexpectedly granted me the exact amount I needed without repayment. This was no coincidence – it was a clear answer from God. This experience revitalized my faith. While I'm still discerning God's plan for me, I've chosen to use my media talents to serve Him. |
