We live life on earth, as citizens of Heaven on an assignment here on Earth. Our assignment is to bring Heaven on Earth through Jesus Christ, our redeemer. In this process, we get transformed into His image. We know that God created us in His image and His likeness. This is a process of transformation.
We progress in our assignment as we progress into being transformed into His image. Hence, they cover a wide range of canvas as the journey is resplendent and colourful in its variety. You will enjoy reading these, not necessarily agreeing to them – that is not a prerequisite to enjoy it.
I have healthy eyes and don’t need glasses for reading and writing, yet I cannot see when I drive and I have to wear glasses.

Many of us desire wisdom, to be a wise person who makes wise decisions. Quite often there are two distinct types of wisdom. Wisdom of the world and wisdom of God.

Follow the work ethics mentioned in the Bible. This is bound to give you peace and enhance your productivity, yield good results, benefit your employer, and take you in the path of prosperity.

Working with full heart is what’s required; this is far superior to full mind. When you work with a full heart, you sincerely desire to do the very best for the work you do. You want it to prosper; you are not interested in appearing to be sincere. Even in your very thoughts, you want it to do well, so that your Boss or the company that employs you will do well. You are not limited by the rule book; you work as if it’s your own company. You consider it a great privilege to serve the Lord Jesus through the work you have.
Bible verse backing this: Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance. (Colossians 3:23-24 NIV)
