Most of man’s problems arise from discarding God’s ways and replacing it with their own.
God’s ways are always made out of love and wisdom; hence, it is the best decision of humanity to simply obey Him.
Psycho-Spirituality and Christian Counselling
I want to begin by setting the definition that “spirituality”, in the current context of mental health or psycho-spirituality, simply means our relationship to God. So, when we say I have a “healthy spiritual life”, it means that you are in good terms with God.

2017 The Year of Change
Welcome to 2017 and the year of the rooster!
My last log was (shamefully) from a few months ago, and since we still have the new year spirit in our consciousness, I would like to start off with a reminder to everyone about God’s ways to change. Well, first of all, I do agree that 2017 is a year of change. And we are actually making ‘Change’ our main theme here in Grace Counselling Centre.

Dr. Strange – Our Awareness to Spirituality
I like this movie because you can see more of Hollywood ‘s push for spirituality.

Snowball Blessings
Blessings are cultivated
A blessing opens doors to more blessings. It doesn’t just end with one answered prayer. When The Lord sets you up with a big project, rest assured that is only the beginning and this will be your open doorway to bigger and greater blessings.

History, Jesus and the Easter Bunny
It’s that time of year again for hot cross buns and chocolate! Let that Easter bunny hide chocolate eggs around my house and I won’t question why a bunny would do that, who cares? Chocolate is so good! Seriously, what a bunny rabbit has to do with the historicity of Easter, I have no idea and I couldn’t be bothered to Google it either. What Jesus dying on the Cross has to do with Easter I know has something to do with forgiveness, such grace is a good thing as well, but should I question the death of Jesus or leave it unquestioned like the Easter bunny?
Secrets in The Bible
Imagine a world taken over by an evil sadist and all he wants is to see everyone suffer.
God’s heart aches from creation’s groans. We are suffering and we want a way out of this reality. Creation has rejected God and now we cry out for salvation from this counterfeit ruler, this prince of the world.
