1 Cor 15:10 (The Verse that’ll wrap up my year. Happy new year everyone!)
Just looking at how the year went through in my life, the only thing that I could ever thank of is that the irresistible grace that God has bestowed upon me. I was just a sinner completely losing his way that was just presented with grace. A grace that I couldn’t resist, a grace that is so amazing that it saved...

Psalm 73:26
Such a lovely Psalm to pick up where I was. I know of my weakness and I know of my nothingness. Again and again I will always remember that without the True Vine, I am nothing. I can never come near God, I can never even desire wanting to know Jesus. I will just continue doing what I know how to do best. I’ll just continue to dig my own grave until my time has come.
My flesh...

Psalm 71:3
Psalm 69 and 71 has been two of my favorite Psalms that I’ve read during my morning meditations this past few days.
This one in particular is just refreshing to pray along to since it does provide remembrance of who I turn to in times of grief and affliction.
I remember what Paul wrote to the Philippians, this particular verse has always been a mantra for me everytime I find...

Psalm 69:5-7
O God, you know my folly; the wrongs I have done are not hidden from you. Let not those who hope in you be put to shame through me, O Lord God of hosts; let not those who seek you be brought to dishonor through me, O God of Israel. For it is for your sake that I have borne reproach, that dishonor has covered my face.
I will keep on going back to Colossians 1:15-17.
He is the image of the...

clientsfromhell:
During the presentation I kept getting distracted because the partner who didn’t know english would type into a little machine that looked like a labelmaker, then he’d look up, puzzled, and type again on the machine.
Halfway through the presentation it dawned on me that he was typing the filler into an English to Spanish translation device, and couldn’t get “Lorem ipsum dolor”...

Psalm 68:19-20
I remember the part of Jude’s doxology that says to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy.
I know that without the changed heart that He granted me, I know that I wouldn’t even come close to desiring God. Not close to enjoying abiding in his will, not even close to wanting not to sin, not...
