Rhythm of Faith

The Battle Within Me** This morning I woke up spiritual. I said, Good morning, Lord. The birds were chirping. My heart was soft. I even forgave someone in advance just in case. By 9:17am, someone annoyed me. And suddenly, my salvation felt… 😂😂😂 That was when I remembered the word agathokakological. It means made up of both good and evil. It comes from Greek roots. Agathos means good. Kakos means bad. Logical means relating to. If we are honest, that word describes the human heart. Even the apostle Paul the Apostle admitted it. For the good that I would I do not but the evil which I would not that I do. This is from the Epistle to the Romans 7:19. I try to do good but somehow evil keeps subscribing to my channel. Because how can I pray in tongues at 6am and plan a sarcastic reply by 10am? How can I post God is good and still rehearse imaginary arguments in the shower? The truth is, every believer has two internal roommates. The Holy Spirit 🕊️ A...

Rejection stings. Whether it is a job application, a crush, or that group project partner saying, you do it alone, it hurts. There is no pretending otherwise. But here is the truth we often miss. Rejection is not a verdict on your worth. It is often God saying, not this one, I have something better prepared. Think of rejection as a closed door that saves you from a room you were never meant to stay in. While you are focused on the door that did not open, God is already arranging another path, one you may not see yet, but one that leads to growth, peace, and purpose. Scripture reassures us of this truth. The Bible says, The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still. It also reminds us that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him. This means that even the disappointments are not wasted. They are woven into a bigger picture. When rejection comes, pause and reflect. Sometimes it is simply a matter of timing. Other times it is protection. And sometimes it i...

Some people are so committed to bad behaviour that you would think they signed a contract. Drama is their morning coffee. Trouble is their side hustle. If mischief paid salary, they would be top earners with benefits. But before you shout in confusion, hold on. The real question is this: Are you dealing with a seared conscience or a wounded soul? A seared conscience is that person whose sense of right and wrong has gone on permanent holiday. Their moral compass is not just broken, it has packed its bags and relocated. You can advise them, warn them, quote scriptures, even bring a whole committee. Nothing enters. It is like knocking on a brick wall and expecting it to say sorry. Think emotional calluses. • They know what is right in the textbook but cannot feel it in real life. • They lie like they are reciting the alphabet. They use people without batting an eyelid. Their conscience is basically on flight mode. • Trying to reason with them is like trying to teach a rock to cry...
