Chronicles of Truth

And Joseph's master took him, and put him into the prison, a place where the king's prisoners  were  bound: and he was there in the prison (Genesis 39:20; KJV). The story of Joseph in the Bible is one of the stories that are so dear to me in a lot of ways. But like many people, I've always considered it a cruel journey of a confined man that God decides to show mercy. But on a second thought, what if it's not a "deliverance from oppression" story, but the delivery of a packaged gift to the world at an appointed time. It's good that we have a common understanding of a thing, but it's important that we see and understand things in a positive light. Because how we see often determine the trajectory of our lives. If all we see and deduce from an event or story is soaked in negativity and misery, then it might be hard to be excited about anything in life or hope for better days ahead. Being boxed is definitely different from being c...

Light in this context describes the weight of something compared to other things that can be involved in a situation. "Something light" is a term that can be used to illustrate anything small in quantity or by people's acceptable standards of measure. It might be insignificant to you and the people around you are not helping matters. But the good news is that those trivial things are big enough for God to open up a great channel that other people can be blessed from. Remember the widow that Elisha ministered to (2 Kings 4:1-7)? She had a pot of oil, but her family was saved from slavery by it. Nothing or void is enough space for God to work and fill if you'll let Him. Sometimes, people won't see problems and solutions the way you do because they are looking at it from the top and high places, and right from where you are (sometimes beneath the pyramid or a chain of command), you can spot the crack. Never underestimate or despise the power and grace you...

Service by general definition or standard means an act of being of assistance to someone. While that is correct, it will be helpful to believe that serving or service is a journey that leads to your greatness .  It starts by understanding the purpose and what it's not. You might not know the end game, but you know there is a responsibility that you carry in your generation. Most of the time, you don't have it figured out, but you know deep inside you.  You might not be able to explain it yet, but you know that you are called and different from the people, environments, stereotypes, status quo, or stagnant mindset.  Nothing physical or tangible can define your purpose because it's an imprint of the DNA of your maker sending a signal to you that your value is not what you have or see now, THERE IS MORE.  In your understanding, you will get to know that God is indeed the author and finisher of your mind because it is so personal, you might not be able to exp...

Everything Live was recorded. We all have a blueprint and this might not be the first time you'll be hearing that; it just shows that it is the truth. So, though you are Life to people and they are streaming a live feed from your everyday life, it has been preordained by the Father from the beginning. There is a script. We all, are acting out the intention of the writer, director, and producer of all things. And the role we play per time can be different but our character in the entire movie is the same.  Have you ever seen a movie or series where one character has to feature as a different person at a particular time because of the trajectory of the story? So are we.  The movies we stream were not done right there in front of us even if it's a stage play. Research, thoughts, and brainstorming had happened. Conclusions and improvisions had been made before the end product was shown. Our lives might be happening live and direct, but so many things have been planned ...

Failure is neither good nor bad, but the attitude and circumstances around it determines whether it's a successful one in either of the extremes and perspective you are looking at it from. But, generally speaking, failure is a state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective. It is often used as the opposite of success. Due to the focus of this article, we will be looking at the topic from different perspectives. First, of all, we can see it as a failure that is not regrettable, but rather a learning platform for greater chances of success in the future. A pile of failures that propels someone to a greater feat. This is definitely referring to those who have hope and faith in the Lord, that there failures and mistakes are not who they are.  Who they truly are is defined by the God of heaven. They will say like Micah, each time they fall, "...I'm down, but I'm not out. I'm sitting in the dark right now, but God is my light"(Micah ...
