What are your landmarks?

Many a time we dismissed things/events as coincidental instead of thanking God for answering our prayer. This is the experience of many christians. However, as you walk with Him, God impressed upon us certain events and they become our landmarks which serve to remind us clearly of God's provision and protection. We can say for certainty that He is the one that answer the prayer because the situation/events are beyond hope and without divine intervention, it is just impossible. Once again we have renewed confidence that He is one we can trust and also one that will take care of us. Our God is eager to demonstrate His power in our lives. Sometimes, He allows us to go through struggles and challenges so that we will learn to turn to Him and experience Him as the one who leads and guides us.

creation: God's signature

The Bible tells us clearly that there is really no excuse for not knowing God (Romans 1:20). Just simply look at the creation - it declares God! Through everything God made, men can clearly see His invisible qualities - His eternal power and divine nature. (adapted from ODJ) Below are some Bible Verses that talk about God's creation:- In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. Genesis 1:1 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers , the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; Psalm 8:3 The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth His handywork. Psalm 19:1 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. Psalm 33:6 I have made the earth, the man and the beast that are upon the ground, by my great power and by my outstretched arm, and have given it unto whom it seemed meet unto me. Jeremiah 27:5 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. John 1:

Christian's sufferings

We all suffer for one reason or another. Sometimes, suffering can be self-inflicted or sometimes one may suffer from the hands of others due to differing viewpoints. Believers need to determine why they must suffer. One may suffer because of his position or disposition. Because of conscience toward God, one endures grief, suffering wrongfully. Suffering is often a 2 sided coin. It may be viewed, on one side, uses by God to bring out the best in us, but on the other side, Satan may use it to bring out the worst of us.
