Daily pearls from the shore🫧 The Game Changer What is that one thing that you feel desperate to change in your family? What is that one thing that you would want to change for your generations to come? What would you do if you got that opportunity? Ruth was a Moabite widow with a background of belonging to a cult tribe and with a pain of loss and loneliness. But her one decision changed the course for her future generations. She was no longer a Moabite and became part of the lineage of King David. (Ruth 1:16, 4: 14-17) Esther, an entrapped, orphan teenage Jewish girl in the harem of a king, who found favour and became queen. She had a decisive moment that changed the destiny of Jewish people who otherwise were doomed to genocide. (Esther 4:14-16) Rahab, a harlot in Jericho with rejection as her only status, took one God-given opportunity to save her clan. She decided to rescue the Israelite spies, knowing God’s favour was upon them. That decision led to her leaving prostitution. She gave birth to a son, Boaz, who was later in the lineage of King David. (Joshua 2:8-9, 12-13) These women didn’t come with extraordinary physical strength or remarkable skills. Their faith was the courage they wore and risked their own lives to save others. Your one decision can change the whole course for your generations and communities. Something very deep that instills courage, no matter what, and gives you the boldness to do something that may look risky and would need extraordinary courage. You don’t need to have a soldier’s training, the strength of Wonder Woman, or extraterrestrial powers to operate. You need a divine decision that can give you a jump start. The crux of the story is that you can be the next Ruth and Rahab who can change the lineage for generations to come. You can be the next Esther who can seize the opportunity to nail the oppressor and save communities. The question is: Are you settling for comfort, or would you rise with courage? Are you staying captive or are you setting captives free? Are you going to stay a victim, or are you going to raise an army of rescuers? You can be the next Ruth, Rahab, or Esther. You can be the game changer. You can be the one who pivots the course. You can be the next one in your family or community who can change the course for generations for freedom and victory. Maybe it’s time to stop numbing that inner voice and start figuring out your divine assignment. Some might still be captive because of one decision you would need to make. If there are things that keep you from moving forward into your destiny, reach us to help you overcome your fears or hurdles and be the change that you want to see.

Daily pearls from the shore🫧 You are summoned! “But now, this is what the LORD says, “He who created you, Jacob, He who formed you, Israel: DO NOT FEAR for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.” (Isaiah 43:1) This is a deeply personal conversation. It is not addressed to a crowd. It is not for someone who is very holy or righteous. Or someone who is doing the right things. THIS IS FOR YOU. These are the words God is saying to YOU. “Do I even matter?” Are these the words that loop in your mind? Yes, YOU MATTER. More than you know at the moment. "Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; YOU ARE WORTH MORE THAN MANY SPARROWS” (Matthew 10:29–31) In Jewish markets, the sparrows were sold cheaply as food because that’s all the poor people could afford then. The story of the sparrows states that, even as insignificant as sparrows were considered for value, the birds mattered to God. How much more HE values you as creations made in HIS likeness. Some of us struggle to find our worth. We tend to wonder if we matter at all. Sometimes, people around us make us feel less valued; other times, we ourselves start believing that about ourselves. We tend to measure our worth based on what the world around us has taught us. We attach it to our achievements, success, status, assets, looks, relationships, intelligence, performance, or efficiency, even to the point of what others would say about us. Till all these are working positively for us, we feel worthy. The moment these things disappear, we feel good for nothing. Because we connect worth to all these things, but that is not what true worth is. That is where the whole mess starts. Such feelings can lead people to many low self-worth issues, such as eating disorders, depression, addictions, toxic relationships, sabotaging behaviours, and many other unwise choices. The feeling is not the issue issue but the belief about what determines your worth. “Since you are precious and honored in my sight, and because I love you, I will give people in exchange for you, nations in exchange for your life.” (Isaiah 43:4) But notice what God thinks and says to you. Since you are PRECIOUS, HONOURED in my sight; and because I LOVE you.” God is not looking at your status, achievements, perfect figures, or even good actions. He simply states that He considers you PRECIOUS, HONOURED, and HE chooses to LOVE YOU. This is your creator, who is Almighty and Powerful, declaring His love for you. The very fact that HE calls you HIS (… You are mine; Isaiah 43:1) gives you your worth. Your worth is in HIS LOVE. He further goes on talking about giving nations and people for your rescue. He is going strong in declaring HOW MUCH YOU MATTER TO HIM. No random person will be willing or offering to pay any price for you except the one who would love you endlessly. I understand some of us never really experienced A LOVE LIKE THAT. Sometimes, it becomes difficult to believe that God would love us at all. But GOD SAYS totally something else: "Can a mother forget her nursing child...? Even if that were possible, I would not forget you! See, I have written your name on the palms of my hands." (Isaiah 49:15-16) "I am your Creator. You were in my care even before you were born." (Isaiah 44:2) God’s words are not mere talks, but He went on to give His Son as ransom for our transgressions. If that is not LOVE, then I guess we do not know love at all. "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8) While you think you are unworthy, God has other ideas about you. "I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness." (Jeremiah 31:3) “...Know the truth, and truth will set you free.” (John 8: 32) We have been living and believing wrong all along. Maybe it’s time to question those negative thoughts about your worth that have made you believe any less of yourself than you are. Maybe it’s time to believe the TRUTH. Maybe it’s time to TAP into HIS LOVE and know how much YOU ARE WORTH to Him. If you struggle to figure out the steps moving forward, we would be privileged to assist.

Daily pearls from the shore *QUESTION: 5/2/12/7/2/7/0/153 =?* A few people got stranded in a no-man ’s-land without having access to basic needs like food, etc. Apparently, there will be some time before help arrives. Now, hours pass by, or maybe a day at the most. Everyone needs food, etc. No one really has anything to eat except one person with some snacks. What do you think can happen? What would you do if you had a sandwich or a pack of chips, knowing the uncertainty of the situation? No judgement. It’s only human to think for yourself and keep the little you have for yourself. It happened in the past, too.  Many people, including five thousand men in addition to women and children who were accompanying, went to the event. The event continued for more than one day. Everybody was getting hungry and lethargic. There were no food courts or food trucks in the proximity. It was getting dark again. The speaker asked the organizers and the team to make a plan for the people to have food. The team started brainstorming as there was no provision for food for so many people. Then a little guy showed up who heard their conversation. He offered his lunch of five loaves and two fish. The speaker asked for an update on arrangements. The team informed him about the situation and the little food they could arrange with five loaves and two fish. The speaker took the LITTLE FOOD and looked to the heavens and prayed. Then he asked the team to start distributing food. (Matthew 14: 16-19) Matthew 14:20 states, “They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.” They *numbered 5000 men, plus the women and children.* *The Speaker was Jesus.*  Another time, Jesus had a healing crusade going on near the Sea of Galilee. Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion for these people; they have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry, or they may collapse on the way.” His disciples answered, “Where could we get enough bread in this remote place to feed such a crowd?” “How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.” Then He took the seven loaves and the fish, and when He had given thanks, He broke them and gave them to the disciples, and they in turn to the people. They all ate and were satisfied. Afterward, the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was *four thousand men, besides women and children.* (Matthew 15: 32-39)  Trying to catch some fish, the disciples were burnt out, struggling all night, only to catch none. Jesus showed up and asked to cast the net on the right side. Peter and the disciples ended up catching a huge *fish numbered 153, and their net was still intact* . (John 21:10-11) What’s the maths here? 5 loaves and 2 fish, 7 loaves and 2 fish, no fish and 153 fish and 5000, 4000 and more. 12 baskets full left over, 7 baskets left over, and the big fish and net not broken. I may not know the maths, but I know Jesus. This is Jesus and His provision. This is His economy, and I am still in the preliminary years of graduation in His kingdom. I know ***only ONE LOGIC here- HIS NAME IS JESUS. I just know he can work with NOTHING, ANYTHING. And EVERYTHING*** Just bring it, and the rest is His responsibility. *ANSWER: (5/2/12/7/2/7/0/153)*JESUS= ∞.*
