Faith Nugget: Identify With Your Tree

By -

Just as a man's baby resembles a man, he who is born of the Holy Spirit bears resemblence of the Child of the Holy Spirit - Jesus Christ.

Just as when a man's baby is born, there is no doubt for it is visible, when a man is born again, there is no doubt for it is visible. One knows in oneself!

Just as a baby is compared by its features with its parents, a child of God can be recognized by their features - their fruits!



  • A good fruit shows that the tree it came from is a good tree.


  • A good fruit identifies with its kind of tree.


  • A good fruit must be cut up, cooked, or juiced to be useful; and it does to be of others' benefit.


  • Most importantly, a good fruit carries within it a seed of the tree it came from. When sown, it produces more of it's tree's kind and not it's own.

Break Down - Build Up

By -

When Father God spoke to me of further breaking up in my life, I looked up and said, ‘Father, breaking up is painful. But I know that I’m in Your hands and You will not let me scatter, so here I am. And I’m scared. Even though after the last break up, what I found was much more valuable than what I had.’ Yes, breaking is painful, especially when you’re at the receiving end. Even if you know that after breaking, what the Lord would build would be much more magnificent – the glory of the latter house will be greater than the former – still it needs a stout and willing heart to step forward and say – I’m here. I said ‘I’m here’ not because I’m a lion-heart, but because I’m encouraged after the last break-down encounter with God. I know it is only glory that He’ll lead me to. Being with Jesus is all about breaking down and building up. Continuously, consciously or unconsciously, but relentlessly. Call it pruning if you’re a gardener at heart; I’m more of an architecture- or interior desig...

Keep Your Eye on the Road

By -

As I sat in the office bus in the evening, I could see my face reflected in the glass separating me and the driver’s cabin. There was a dark colored curtain on the other side that enabled the reflection. I closed my eyes as I turned up the volume of the worship songs on the iPod. Suddenly, I opened my eyes – probably just to check the distance – I saw the curtain slightly pulled back, and I could see the road out of the windscreen. And right here begins the small discussion of an eye-opener. When you stop looking at yourself, you start seeing the way. I smiled. And closed my eyes, listening still to the worship songs. Few minutes later, I opened my eyes again. The curtain had flown back a bit and now I could see a partial reflection – my face was not reflected, but a side of my hair was. But in the place where my face should've been reflected, I saw the road ahead. If you look at the way long enough, you start to look like Him. The curtain slipped back further, till I saw a partial...
