Listen. I haven’t tried to die, so I can’t explain what I don’t know. But this is what I’m trying to say: there is a struggle in that moment of death. All hope is almost lost. And suddenly, it is clear that this person is about to die. Saint Augustine said, “We yearn for the Lord.” That yearning for God may come fully to you. At that moment, you have no more hope of anything other than the God who made you, who you are now about to see face to face, whose judgment will be passed on you. So you are trying to grip on this, where you belong. And then you start searching for God. You are ready for Him. You want to receive him. You want to be with Him because that’s your inner yearning, the only thing that will fulfill you.

Finding God in Everything
Psalm 148, verse eight, says, “Fire and hail, snow and frost, stormy wind fulfilling his command.” I woke up this morning, and snow filled our whole compound. And I started to ponder: God is great. How did this all come about? You look up and don’t even see where it comes from, but somebody behind it has made it possible. What a mystery. This is not the first time I’ve seen snow…

What It Means To Be A Christian
This is the key to leveling up your life. What does Christian mean? Follower of Christ. And Christ himself has said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” You cannot say you are following him and don’t believe in his church. So if you say you are Christian and you are outside the church, that’s a big problem, you know? You cannot be saved as a Christian without Christ. And in your belief, he is the one who brought you salvation…

Speaking Out Of Love
If I speak in the tongues of men, and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong, or a clashing symbol. This sounds old, ancient, but it is new. You have heard people who speak very nicely, some may say, oh, this person is speaking like an angel. But eventually, you notice that that person has grudges, that person has hatred…
