“Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” Matthew 24:35 (NIV) The Bible is the most despised, derided, denied, disputed, dissected, and debated book in all of history. It has been under attack for centuries, for everything you can imagine.  Yet the Bible is still the most read, most published, and most translated book in the world. And, most importantly, it’s still changing the lives of those who apply what it teaches. One of the reasons I believe the Bible is God’s Word is that it has survived so many attacks throughout history. At different times throughout history, it’s been illegal to own a Bible. In fact, that’s still true in some places today. Many people have been arrested, jailed, and even killed because they refused to give up their copies of the Bible. And still the Bible has survived. Despite all the attacks, today the Bible is the greatest single source for so many cultural achievements. It’s the greatest source for music, art, and architectu...

​ Four Habits to fortify Your Faith “Spend your time and energy in the exercise of keeping spiritually fit.” 1 Timothy 4:7 (TLB) If you want God to use you, then you need to fortify your faith. The Bible says in 1 Timothy 4:7, “Spend your time and energy in the exercise of keeping spiritually fit” (TLB).  I wonder how many people wake up thinking, “I get to exercise today!” I certainly don’t. But I do know that we all need both physical and spiritual exercise. I also know this about exercise: I want the most benefit I can get out of every minute I exercise, whether it’s physical or spiritual.  To get the most out of your spiritual exercise, practice these four spiritual habits that will fortify your faith.   Study the Bible. Your Bible study needs to be personal. You can’t depend on somebody else’s study of the Bible to fortify your faith. You have to do it yourself. The Bible says, “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us re...

​Biazai: "Yearning Trails: From Hakha to Gangaw" In the land of Hakha, where I now reside, A longing tugs at my heart's gentle tide. For in the distance, far away, you see, Lies a place called Gangaw, where my family be. Oh, how I miss those joyful days, When laughter echoed through familiar hallways. Home, where happiness blossoms and thrives, Where love's embrace forever survives. In Gangaw's embrace, my heart finds solace, Amongst the smiles that light up each face. The sound of voices, like a sweet melody, Fills the air with a symphony of glee. I yearn for the warmth of our cherished abode, Where stories were shared and memories sowed. The walls that hold echoes of laughter and cheer, Whisper tales of a family so dear. Oh, the nights, how I long for their embrace, As stars danced above with celestial grace. The comfort of home, a sanctuary so grand, Where dreams take flight, hand in hand. The aroma of meals, prepared with care, Wafts through the air, a delicio...
