The Right and Wrong of Boasting
Paul taught the Corinthians to boast—not in themselves, but in their relationship with Jesus and His work in the gospel (1 Corinthians 1:31). True boasting should be about God’s glory and what He has done, rather than drawing attention to ourselves. It is God’s approval that is the ultimate measure of our worth (2 Corinthians 10:17-18). So, Paul chose to boast in his own weakness (2 Corinthians 11:30–33), that the power and grace of God might shine more clearly in his life.

Flourish

Why our view of Christ matters.
An emasculated Jesus is just part of creation, not Lord over it! He is not the Jesus of the Bible, who laid the foundation of the earth from the beginning and will roll it up like a garment (Heb 1:10-12). This weak Jesus is not the faithful protector of His people, the reconciler who brings peace and assures the ultimate overthrow of defeated powers of evil and darkness. Our view of Christ matters!
How many mothers-in-law does it take to change a light bulb?
So how do we handle in-law problems after we’re married? A starting point is to hold in tension two God-given principles: The first is to separate from parents (leave and cleave) and the second is to honour our parents. It’s not a question of either… or, but both… and. As a mother-in-law and a counsellor, I know that a critical and controlling spirit is a lethal combination which can wreck family relationships.

Does my life have purpose and meaning?
Psalm 139:13-16 shares how all my days are ordained or planned out by God. That even before we were born, God saw the inner parts of our body and recorded the days of our lives. “For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well” (Psalm 139:13-14). I often revisit Psalm 139 to remind me of the wonderful reality that I cannot escape the Lord’s watchful eye. God knows, God sees, God cares.
Psalm 19:7-13: Honey for the heart
In Psalm 19, David meditates on the limited parts of God’s Word which he had in his possession—the Torah. We have much more in our Bibles. God’s Word is tangible proof that the Creator of the universe loves us and wants a personal relationship with us. He invites us to taste and digest his words of truth which are sweet as honey.
Romans 8: Trusting the Promises of God
During a season of prolonged illness in my own life, I got to a place where I wondered if I’d ever be healthy again. Discouragement and depression set in. However, the turning point came when I actively searched Scripture and started memorising God’s promises as if my life depended on them. One of the greatest treasury of God’s promises is found in Romans 8. I have crystallised ten great and precious promises from this chapter.
Trusting God’s Promises because they’re true.
Unlike us, God never makes a promise that He doesn’t keep. His promises are always dependable because God cannot lie. His promises are a secure anchor for believers in the eye of the storm, providing security and stability. In contrast, false promises are disappointing no matter how firmly you believe them. Like eating soup with a fork, you get a taste but no satisfaction.
Psalm 40: How to pray as we wait
Prayer is a special privilege and gift that God gives to every Christian. Some view prayer as a mystical practice like meditation or mindfulness, whereas the Bible describes prayer as speaking directly to God, through Christ who has given us access. It is one of the wonderful blessings of our adoption into God’s family. As Jesus said, our Father is ready to give good gifts “to those who ask him”. We have every reason to pray expectantly.
Walk by faith, not by sight
If we had x-ray eyes to see inside the invisible world of the cocoon, we would be amazed. A powerful metamorphosis is taking place in the unseen world, but we only see the effects when a butterfly finally emerges. How can a follower of Christ be sure that our waiting is not wasted, but transformative instead?
A Prayer for Resurrection Sunday
Gracious Father, how we praise you for your love, demonstrated so powerfully on the cross. ‘This is love, not that we have loved you, but that you loved us and sent your Son to be the atonement for our sin.’ Thank you for sending your beloved Son, who was despised, rejected, beaten, mocked and crucified. He sacrificed his innocent life, so that we might be freed from sin’s bondage.
Seeing the goodness of God
As hard as it is to see, we are often frustrated and dissatisfied with life because fundamentally we don’t trust how God is taking care of us. We depend too much on outward things for our joy and peace.
