15 Insightful Bible Verses on Suffering
See, it’s not God’s will for us to suffer wrongly. However, it is inevitable that in our Christian journey, we will encounter diverse stages of suffering.

It will surprise you to know that such trials and temptations are things we can handle, for God will not let us be tempted beyond what we can bear. And in times like that, God has equipped you with all you need to use such moments…

15 Insightful Bible Verses on Overthinking
Under the disguise of planning for the days ahead, we often end up overthinking. It is true that anyone who fails to plan has automatically planned to fail, and even Jesus admonished us to sit down and count the costs before embarking on any project. But we usually go beyond estimating to overestimate! And that wasn’t Jesus’ words to us. On the contrary, Jesus told us not to worry about tomorrow. So, where and how can we find the balance?

15 Insightful Bible Verses on Money
Dear believers, so long as we are in this world, money is a subject that should concern us. Our daily transactions and translations require money. We use money to buy food to eat, clothes to cover our nakedness, and build houses to shelter and shield us.

But at the same time, God does not wish for us to spend all night worrying about our material needs and be out of bed early every new day in pursuit of money. God’s will…

There’s this saying that behind every successful man is a good wife who brings out the best in him. And that is how it’s supposed to be. But today, we see wives who have become competitors to their husbands, not putting to work the biblical standard or qualities attributed to a good wife.

15 Insightful Bible Verses on Making Decisions
Making decisions on our own is enticing. But I’ve lived it out severally that life does not play out in real life as it does in my imagination. And I believe this is true for you, too. Even seemingly minute decisions to stand up can be fatal. If you’ve observed, most slumping incidents occur after a person stands up or takes a routined walk around familiar surroundings. The point is, harmless kills, too. Do you remember Adam and Eve? And that it’s by merely eating a fruit that they birthed spiritual death, physical death, eternal death with sickness, pain, and others? As natural as eating is, it can have negative…
