When People Are Difficult
Week 40
What do you do when someone you work closely with begins to get under your skin? It is easy to be gracious when a relationship is going well. The real test often comes when we feel misunderstood, dismissed or hurt…
The People God Places in Our Path
Week 39
The Bible has many stories of people who meet by what seems like chance. But look closer, and you will often see God's hand behind the meeting. It is as if he brought two people together without either one realizing it…
Sharing Christ Around the Table
Week 38
"Did you bring food today?" That's how we ask each other about lunch where I work. I work in the city center of a big city, and few of my colleagues go home for lunch. So, I get to enjoy good times around the lunch table with them nearly every day…
The People God Puts in Your Path
Week 36
Most days are full before they even begin. There are meetings, messages, deadlines and decisions waiting for us, and it is easy to move through them focused on what needs to be accomplished. In the process, the people around us can become almost invisible: colleagues we pass, clients we speak to, neighbours we barely know…
Called to This City, Not the One I Wanted
Week 32
Have you ever wondered what you’re doing in your current job, or why you accepted to work in a place like this?
For twenty years, I worked for a multinational insurance company. During that time, I served in different departments and experienced both good and difficult seasons…
Open Hands, Open Heart: Surrendering Your Whole Life to God
Week 30
If someone asked you what belongs to God, you would probably answer, "Everything."
Yet if we are honest, there are parts of our lives that we still hold tightly…
Biblical Humility at Work: Choosing the Way of Christ
Week 29
Everybody wants to go up. Up the ladder, up in title, up in salary, up in how people see us. There is nothing wrong with wanting to grow. But many of us have quietly started measuring our whole life by how fast we are climbing compared to the next person…
Who's Really in Control? Surrendering the Need to Have All the Answers
Week 28
A few years ago, I lost both my parents within two years of each other. It was the kind of loss that shakes everything. Why now? Why like this? Where was God in it? I searched for answers and found that many of them were either not enough or not there at all…
When God's Plans Interrupt Yours: Learning to Surrender with Mary
Week 27
In 2016, during our holidays, my wife and I spent a month in a country that completely captured our hearts. That experience planted a dream in us. We decided we wanted to move abroad, seeking not only a better quality of life but also opportunities to live out our faith among people from different nations…
Too Tired to Pray, Too Busy to Stop
Week 25
Recently, I found myself in a season that required more from me than I expected.
I started caring for an elderly woman, the mother of someone who has been a great blessing to me and my family over the years. At the same time, I was still managing my regular work responsibilities…
Alone in the Crowd
Week 24
Most of us spend our days surrounded by people, information, and expectations. We navigate meetings, deadlines, projects, lectures, clients, colleagues, and countless decisions. We are constantly connected, constantly engaged, and constantly responding.
The Noise We Call Normal
Week 23
Most of us check our phones before our feet touch the floor. It happens without thought—the habitual reach for the device, the immediate intake of messages, news, and notifications. Before the day has properly begun, we are already responding to it…
Seek First: Simplifying Priorities
Week 22
Here's a question worth considering this week: What is my day really centred around??
Not what I say my priorities are. Not what I would write on a list. But what my calendar, my energy, and my first thoughts in the morning actually reveal.
If I am honest, the answer is often not God.
Simplicity as Trust: Letting Go of Control
Week 21
Matthew 6:33 comes at the end of a powerful teaching from Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount. He begins this particular session by reminding us not to store up treasures on earth, because earthly things do not last…
Simplicity in Daily Living: Creating Space for God
Week 20
Reading Epistle to the Hebrews 12:1 was the push I needed today.
We have been facing difficult days. Health and work-related issues have weighed heavily on us, but I also need to confess that lately my mind has become a particular battlefield. I have been more introspective than usual.
Simplicity of the Heart: Undivided Devotion
Week 18
A university student once shared how hard it had become to concentrate during prayer and Bible study. Anytime she wanted to spend time with God, her mind would quickly move to assignments, messages on her phone, plans, and worries about succeeding in life. Even while praying, she was already thinking about the next thing to do.
Living Out the Word You Study
Week 16
Studying the Word of God is not just another form of learning. It is a spiritual discipline that shapes how we think, live, and relate with God. Yet, it is possible to spend time in Scripture and still miss its main purpose if it does not move us to action…
A Teachable Heart Shaped by God’s Word in Everyday Work
Week 15
A teachable heart does not grow by accident. It is formed with intention, and for the believer, it starts with studying God’s Word. Proverbs 18:15 reminds us that wisdom is something we go after. It does not come passively…
From One Promise to All: Seeing God’s Plan This Easter
Week 13
When God spoke to Abraham saying, “Lift up your eyes… all the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever” (Genesis 13:14–15), it may seem like a personal blessing. But it was the beginning of something far greater. Through Abraham, God was unfolding a plan that would extend beyond one family, one nation, or one generation. That plan finds its fulfillment in Jesus, and Easter reveals the full picture…
When God Leads Your Work — Clearly or Quietly
Week 12
We often long for moments like this. Clear direction. A defined calling. A sense that God has spoken into our work, our decisions, our next step.
In Acts 13, that’s exactly what happens. In the middle of worship and fasting, God speaks. The mission becomes visible. The next move is unmistakable.
