The Power of Covenant. Strength for Today and Hope for Tomorrow

Good morning, brothers and sisters. I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to speak to you today. As I thought about what I wanted to share, one powerful theme kept coming to mind: covenants . In a world where so much changes—our circumstances, the challenges we face, and even the seasons of life—the power of our covenants with God remains constant. It’s a foundational part of our faith, and I believe it’s something that can strengthen and bless all of us, no matter where we are in life. I want to invite all of us—whether we are children, youth, adults, or senior saints—to reflect on the covenants we’ve made with God, and how those covenants can give us strength as we move through the different stages of life. So, what exactly is a covenant? At its core, a covenant is a sacred promise or agreement between us and God. In this agreement, God promises to bless us as we commit to follow Him and keep His commandments. Our relationship with God is built on these sacred promises, and He wants...

Stepping Into Bravery: Why We Need to Stop Waiting for the “Right Time”

We all know that feeling. That urge to step out of our comfort zone, to do something bold, something different. Maybe it's traveling alone, meeting new people, or simply taking a leap of faith into the unknown. But more often than not, we hesitate. We let fear, doubt, and the idea that we're not ready hold us back. But here’s the truth: bravery doesn’t come when you feel ready—it comes when you choose to take that first step anyway. Take me, for instance. One of my biggest dreams is to travel solo, to step outside of everything I’ve known and experience the world on my own terms. For years, I’ve been waiting for the perfect moment. I’ve been waiting for the time when everything aligns—when I have the money, the right travel companions, or the perfect circumstances. But you know what? That moment may never come. I’ve come to realize that the fear of traveling alone is only a part of the equation. The other part? I’m waiting for permission. Permission from the universe, permis...

Tired of Starting Over: When Love Feels Like a Never-Ending Cycle

Image
The Weight of Always Beginning Again There comes a point when love starts to feel less like an adventure and more like a cycle—meeting someone new, getting your hopes up, putting in the effort, only to find yourself right back where you started. It’s draining. It’s disheartening. And sometimes, it makes me question if love is even worth the effort anymore. I know I’m not alone in feeling this way. Every time I open my heart, I’m giving a little piece of myself. I invest my time, my energy, my emotions, hoping that this time, maybe, it’ll be different. But when things don’t work out, it feels like I’m standing there—back at square one, trying to pick up the pieces of who I was before, but not quite feeling like myself anymore. And here's the kicker: It’s not just about losing someone. It’s about losing the version of me that still believed. The one who was ready to try, to take a leap, to hope for something real. That’s the hardest part—the quiet kind of heartbreak that no one t...
