TOTD, April 17-19

Faithful in Small Things

In the chapter of the bible when Jesus fed five thousand people, the writer of the book expressed that there’s a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish and asked how far will they go among so many?

We’re reminded that we need to put every faith in all the small things that we have at this moment. And keep on believing, while we’re faithful with the small ones, we’ll be ready when the bigger comes along the way in His time.

Start from the smallest. Even the tiniest effort with faith and love, will somehow make a difference. (-fon-)

Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, spoke up, "Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?"

--- John 6:8-9

Believing Him

Why we need to believe in Him?

Jesus said that He is the bread of life. For those who come to Him will never go hungry and will never be thirsty.

This world is lack of love. The world is in hunger. Not only physical hunger, but also spiritual hunger. The only way to be fulfilled is drawing near to the bread of life. Let’s get nearer to Him. (-fon-)

Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.

--- John 6:35

No Other Rock Besides You

…WE NEED SOME SOLID PLACE to stand, against which to lean, to which to return. Builders create pillars, foundations, and buttresses. For believers, when other supports give out, Christ remains the rock, solid, on which to stand. From whence to dare.

It’s not easy to find a solid rock in this chaotic world. And we’re just so lucky to find Him, the most solid Rock ever in our life. (-fon-)

"There is no one holy like the LORD;
there is no one besides you;
there is no Rock like our God.

--- 1 Samuel 2:2
