My Reflection on John Chapter 1

Image
I imagine that all of creation is like a book written by the hand of God. Inside this book are all realms, times, and realities. God is the Author who knows the beginning and the end. Beyond the pages of this book is a higher realm — where we find the Father, the Word, and the Spirit. They are one, and together they are God. It was the Word who wrote all of creation from the beginning to the end. But one day, He chose to become part of His own story. The Word became flesh and lived among the people He created. Sadly, they did not recognize Him. Instead, they rejected Him. He took on a new role — the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world. In this chapter, the Word is called many names: the Light, the True Light, the Light of Men, the Son of God, and the One who baptizes with the Holy Spirit. But at the center of it all, He is the Word. There is no one like Him and never will be. What a great honor it is to witness Him, to belong to His Kingdom, and to enjoy the presence of His Hol...

My Personal Battle Against Lust: A Letter to a Friend

Image
My Dear Friend, It is with joy that I write you this letter. I speak as someone who was formed in the heat of battle. There were times when my heart was heavy, darkened by shame and regret—but God gave me joy. I’m writing to you now because I’ve come out victorious, and I believe my story might encourage you. In my fight against lust, I truly uncovered something: the only way to overcome addiction is through the training of the Holy Spirit. He doesn’t just help us once—He trains us to overcome worldly desires, to wait patiently for the coming of Jesus Christ, and to live godly lives while we remain here. There are some things that never change in this process: the blood of Jesus and the truth of God's Word. These two always agree with the voice of the Holy Spirit. The Bible tells us that eternal life is in Jesus—and whoever has the Son has life. The Spirit Is Our Trainer Each day, I would begin with this simple statement: “Holy Spirit, I welcome You. I can’t study, pray, or even fi...

The Singular Fruit of the Spirit

Image
Have you ever stopped to think about what it means to live a life controlled by the Spirit? In Galatians 5, we're presented with a pretty stark contrast between two ways of living. On one hand, there's the life that's driven by our own selfish desires and lusts. On the other, there's the life that's surrendered to God's Spirit. When we choose to surrender to the Spirit, something amazing happens. We start to produce what the Bible calls the "fruit of the Spirit". But here's the thing: I used to think of the fruit of the Spirit as a kind of checklist. You know, like a list of moral achievements that I could tick off one by one. But the more I've thought about it, the more I've come to realize that it's not like that at all. The fruit of the Spirit isn't a collection of separate traits. It's not like patience is one fruit, kindness is another, and self-control is a third. No, the fruit of the Spirit is something much more beautifu...
