Can you see through?


What If We Could See Other's Hearts Like God Does? from inspiredfaith on GodTube.

Have you visited a hospital lately, particularly a government hospital? Perhaps just out of sheer curiosity with no particular objective, have you experienced finding yourself spending some time observing the people around and subconsciously got carried away into a deeper level of contemplation? The experience could be something like the one shown in this video.

"This impacting and powerful video will make you think twice about how we treat others, especially people we don't know. If we could see them the way God sees them, we would know that everyone is battling something and they deserve our love, compassion and support." --Author of video

God's Fatherhood: A reflection on fathers' day


"Who among you, if your children ask you for a loaf of bread, would give them a stone instead? Or if they ask for a fish, do you give them a snake? Of course not! So then, if even you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give good gifts to those who ask Him." (Matthew 7:9-11 NLT)

What's sustaining you?


The spirit may be strong, yet the flesh has its infirmities. 

In one's daily diet when serious medications are already a necessary part of it, that's when one comes to terms with reality and comes to realize more the value and sacredness of life. Serious suffering has the potential to grow the soul into a deeper union with God such that every painful groaning becomes a prayer and every catching of breath is a thanksgiving.

But despite sufferings, God's grace is so amazing; it's far more than enough to sustain a suffering soul.

What's sustaining your weary soul?

----------
But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it? Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he that searches the hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because he makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. (Romans 8:25-27)

"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." (2 Cor. 12:9)
