A Voice In The Wilderness

In the wilderness, I look around and see nothing... So I look inside and behold I see terror! Then, I look up and see beauty.

Don't Waste Your Sickness

So often when we fall ill, our natural instinct is to pursue healing. Our minds are pre-occupied with wanting to recover as soon as possible. However we fail to pause and consider what the Lord may be saying to us and risk wasting the sickness altogether. My appeal is that even as we pursue recovery, let us also take time to seek the Lord and discern the cause(s) of our sickness so that we can pray more appropriately for healing. 1. Careless Living It is a known fact that the lack of balanced diet and exercise will lead to several physical ailments. Our physical body is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 6:19); and we are to glorify Him with our body. Glorifying God with our body includes being good stewards of our body. Observing a balanced diet and having a healthy dose of exercise will help us prevent chronic diseases like diabetes or high blood pressure. Observing Sabbath rest also allows the body to be renewed and refreshed. If we have been guilty of careless living, we need t...

“Touch, Temptation & Truth: Navigating the Massage Culture as a Christian

Touch, Temptation & Truth: Navigating the Massage Culture as a Christian When I was serving my National Service, we would sometimes go for overseas trainings. These trips often ended with a few days of R&R – Rest and Relaxation. I remember one particular evening when a group of my army mates quickly gulped down their dinner and slipped out of the restaurant in a rather sheepish manner. Curious, I followed them, wondering what exciting adventure awaited. It didn’t take long before I realised where they were heading — to a row of poorly lit “massage parlours”, and the atmosphere was heavy with suggestion. Instinctively, I made a quick U-turn and walked away. Later, I found out that these parlours offered more than massages; they offered sexual services, the so-called “happy endings.” During my reservist days, I saw the same thing happening. It was almost an unspoken norm for some reservist men (married included!) to frequent such places during overseas R&R. It became ...

The Thirst of Christ

By the time Christ hung on the cross, He had gone without water for at least nine hours. He endured a long night of interrogations. In the morning, He was scourged and whipped repeatedly, losing much fluid from His body. He was then forced to carry the heavy cross through the streets, His sweat mingling with blood that ran down His torn back. He must have been severely dehydrated— overwhelmingly thirsty. Yet, even in that abyss of physical agony, Christ remained fixed on obedience. Pain did not distract Him from the will of God; it became the very place where Scripture was fulfilled. From the cross, He uttered, “I thirst.” It wasn't just a primal human need. It was an intentional act to fulfill the Scripture. "After this, Jesus, knowing that all was now finished, said (to fulfill the Scripture) , “I thirst". Jn 19:28 How do we hold onto the Word when our physical desires stage a revolt, and every nerve ending is clamour...
