At our core, all of humanity shares a common origin. The Bible teaches that we are all descendants of Adam, meaning we come from the same human family. Acts 17:26 emphasizes this unity: “From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth." Far from promoting division, the Bible speaks of equality and togetherness in God’s eyes. Regardless of race, age, or gender, God loves and values every person equally. Galatians 3:28 declares, "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." This highlights the inclusiveness of Christianity, where everyone is welcome.

It’s easy to get lost in the daily grind when we live for the world, seeking purpose in jobs, relationships, or fleeting pleasures. But when we shift our focus to God, everything changes. Colossians 3:2 encourages us to "Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things." By looking to Jesus—God’s glory in human form—we stop chasing temporary achievements and start living for the eternal inheritance promised to those who are faithful.

One important truth I’ve discovered on my spiritual journey is that the soul transcends our body's age. The soul is eternal, and its growth is independent of how old we are. For instance, someone at 80 years old could be facing similar spiritual challenges or revelations as someone in their 30s, depending on their level of surrender to God. This life is not a race, and God works in each of us at His own pace. It’s perfectly okay if some people reach milestones later than others because "God shows no partiality" (Romans 2:11). He desires that we all come to Him, no matter when that happens.

The Bible verse "Commit your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established" (Proverbs 16:3) emphasizes the power of surrendering our goals and ambitions to God, letting Him guide and transform them for a higher purpose. For some, the concept of “dying to self” may sound intimidating, but it's not about abandoning everything you've worked for or giving up your dreams. Instead, it's about letting go of self-gratifying desires and trusting in God’s plan for your life, allowing Him to use your talents and passions in ways that bring true, lasting fulfillment.

Since the beginning of time, humanity has sought to understand its connection with the Creator of the Universe. Sadly, humankind has often rebelled against God to pursue selfish desires that contradict His nature. But contrary to the belief that God is harsh, evil, or hateful, the true nature of God is vastly different.

Imagine Jesus as a pen pal who constantly reaches out to us—not through letters, but through our hearts, His Bible, and the world around us. It’s like receiving a love letter, but one many of us overlook. Whether we realize it or not, we’ve all communicated with God at some point in our lives. This connection goes beyond what we can fully understand. God speaks to us through nature, our thoughts, emotions, and our innermost selves.

Being a Christian is not just a label; it’s a supernatural journey of spirit-filled faith and relationship with Jesus. It’s about believing in Him and then, in a cosmic reaction, experiencing the unfathomable love that God has already given you since the dawn of eternity. This love is not something you can earn because it has already been freely bestowed upon you. It’s a gift, waiting to be received, and the only requirement is belief. You can’t earn something that is already yours; all you need to do is embrace it.

Knowing God and receiving grace through faith is akin to piecing together a magnificent puzzle. Imagine God placing all the pieces of this intricate puzzle before you. As you diligently work to fit each piece together, He miraculously assists you, guiding your hands and illuminating your understanding. If you stay in faith, trusting His process, the pieces will come together beautifully, revealing the picture of eternal life in Christ.
