Towel

When your hands, or body is wet after washing with water, what do you do to make yourselves dry? You use towels! What towels do is so amazing. They absorb all the water on our bodies to themselves, so we become dry!


This is sort of like what Jesus did for us on the cross. Once we were fully wet in sins. We were born in sins. Yet, because he loved us, Jesus took all of our sins into himself and died for us. Jesus absorbed all of our sins, so that we may become clean, when we trust in Him. Do you know what this is called? It's called God's grace.

"God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sins, so that we could be made right with God through Christ" (2 Corinthians 5:21).

Living Water

Have you ever been so thirsty that you wanted water so bad? Do you realize Bible says we need to drink a spiritual water as well? In other words, the Bible says that we all have soul thirsts that can only be quenched by the living water from God.

"What is that living water?" once asked the Samaritan woman. "Well, daughter, I am that living water" replied Jesus. You see, just as we drink water to quench our thirst, we need the living water that will quench our soul thirst. And, that living water is Jesus.


"...whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never be thirsty again" 
(John 4:13).

Donuts

Do you like Donuts? It’s so delicious! It’s so sweet! But, do you know what is sweeter than donuts? What is sweeter than honey? God's words.

How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! 
(Psalm 119:103, NIV).

Money

What do we do with money? We use money to pay the price for the things we want to buy. Some things are cheap. But, other things are very expensive.


Do you realize we were once sold under sins? That means, sin used to be our master! So, just as we pay money to buy things, someone had to pay the price, so that we may be freed from our sins. But, the problem was that this price of our sins was too expensive that we could not afford to pay. So, we were in trouble. But then, do you know who decided to pay that price for us? God did. And, do you know what the payment was? Jesus’ blood.

"...God bought you with a high price..." (1 Corinthians 6:20, NLT).

Coming Soon

Why do bad things happen in our world? Have you ever wondered about that? If God is good, why are some people hungry?

God says, “If everyone in the world obeyed me, there would be no bad things. If everyone loved Me and loved each other, no one will be hungry in this world!” But, God also says, “You know what? I am going to fix all bad things in the world! One day, I am going to come to the world and make it NEW! And, in that world, there will be no more bad things! Because in that world everyone is going to love me and love each other!” God says, ONE DAY He is going to come back and make all bad things go away. So, when is God coming back? God says:

Look, I am 
(Revelation 22:7, NIV)

Green Light

On the roads, have you seen traffic lights? Do cars move in the red light? No. They only move when the light is green! When the light is red, the cars wait. But, when the light is green, the cars move.

Do you realize in our lives, there may be times we too need to wait for God’s green light? In other words, there may be times we may want God to do something right now! For example, you may say, “God, please do this right now!” But, God says, “Wait. The light is red for now. Wait until I turn it to green.” In those times, we should learn to wait upon God, and never move on our own. Wait for God’s Green Light!

"Wait for the LORD; be strong and take and wait for the LORD" (Psalm 27:14).

Eric Liddell

Let me introduce to you a man, Eric Liddell. He was a Scottish athlete who was the fastest 100 meter runner in 1924. So, he was supposed to go to Olympics and run for 100 meter race. But, Eric soon found that the competition was going to be held on Sunday. He had a dilemma, because Sunday was a day he went to church to worship God. So, he told people, "On Sunday, I must honor God. So, I cannot run the race." Even though people told him, "It's ok. Eric. It's just one Sunday. Just run the race and win the gold medal for you, and for our nation!" But, Eric made his mind not to run. Because to Eric, honoring God was more important than the gold medal.

What about you? Do you live your life to honor God? Honoring God means that you are living to show the world that God is the most important one in your life. So, Eric did not run and did not win the gold medal! But, next day, Eric found out that there was another 400 meter race. But, the problem was that Eric was never good with 400 meter race. But, he still ran. And, the result? You have to watch this for yourself.



You see, when we live our lives to honor God, He honors us. God honors us, so that we may tell the world: "God is the most important one in the world!"

"...Those who honor me I will honor..." (1 Samuel 2:30).
