March 22 Poor Oral Health Connected with Risk of Stroke

CTV put out an article recently, “poor oral health could affect the brain later in life.” In the article it notes that previous studies have shown that gum disease, missing teeth, poor brushing and plaque removal can increase the risk of a stroke. Did you know the bible outlines something we are all at risk of and there are no exceptions? In Romans 3:23 it reads, “for all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God.” Romans 6:23 reads, “For the wages of sin is death” but thankfully the rest of the verse brings the solution that has been made available to all of humanity, “but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

March 20 Radioactive Pea

CTV news reported recently of a tiny radioactive capsule the size of a pea that was very harmful that had fallen out of a truck while being transported a distance of 1400 kilometer highway. Imagine trying to find something the size of a pea over a 1400 kilometer highway. It seemed like an impossible task but with the right equipment it was found. Did you know Jesus spoke of a seemingly impossible task in the book of Matthew in which it reads, “And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” Jesus later follows this up in relation to someone rich entering heaven by saying, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

March 17 Expensive Stamp

Recently a rare, mint Canadian stamp dating back before Confederation sold for almost $300,000 at an Ottawa auction. Imagine a stamp to have such worth to pay almost $300,000 for it. In the Bible, Jesus addresses the value of the kingdom of heaven. He shares a story of a man who found a treasure in a field and then went and sold all that he had to buy the field so he could have the treasure. The kingdom of heaven is of infinite worth beyond what we can fully comprehend but we can possess it. Jesus also shared the way into the kingdom. He said in John 14:6 I am the way and the truth and the life, no one comes to the father but by me.

March 15 Debt Paid

Fox News reported recently about a gentleman from a town in Alabama who had passed away, and was well respected, but people were not aware of the extent of his generosity. It was after his passing that neighbors were made aware that he was paying the pharmacy bills for those who could not afford it for the past ten years. Imagine having someone else pay your debt. Did you know spiritually Jesus Christ paid the debt for your sins but in order to have it applied to your life you need to embrace what He did for you in faith resulting in you following after Him. In the book of Romans it reads, “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

March 13 High inflammatory diet found to increase likelihood of depression

CTV new reported recently about a new study published in the Journal of Affective Disorders has found a correlation between a highly inflammatory diet and an increased risk of depression. According to Harvard Medical School a person should avoid or limit high inflammatory foods. Something the Bible directs a person to not limit but rather include mentally in relation to dealing with anxiety among other things reads, “Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

March 10 Vitamin D Lowers Risk of Skin Cancer

CTV news reported recently how a new study revealed a way to potentially reduce your risk of developing Melanoma. Melanoma is one of the few cancers on the rise in Canada. Apparently, those who regularly take a vitamin D supplement are at a lower risk in relation to those who do not take the supplement. Did you know the bible outlines something we are all at risk of and there are no exceptions? In Romans 3:23 it reads, “for all have sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God.” Romans 6:23 reads, “For the wages of sin is death” but thankfully the rest of the verse brings the solution that has been made available to all of humanity, “but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

March 8 1.5 million Fentanyl Pills

Recently border officers in Arizona reported to have seized more than 1.5 million fentanyl pills in just a one-week period. Fentanyl is an opioid drug that is 50 times stronger than heroin. It is deadly! Did you know the Bible tells us that we have all been injected with something that is deadly that has to be addressed? Romans 3:23 reads, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and later on it reads, “for the wages of sin is death.” Death meaning eventual separation from God. Thankfully this same verse that tells us what the wages of sin causes also tells us, “but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

March 6 New Birth

Recently the police in Long Island responded to a call of a woman going into labor at home. When they arrived the mom made them aware that the baby was almost out. Sergent Jon-Eric Negron assisted with the birth and helped delivered his 5th baby as a police officer. Did you know the bible speaks of a special birth that a person has to have in order to enter into a right relationship with God. In the book of John, Jesus is speaking with a religious leader of his day called Nicodemus and he shares something with Nicodemus that we need to be aware of. Jesus said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”

March 3 In Like a Lion and Out Like a Lamb

A saying that is often quoted this time of year depending on the weather is, “In like a lion and out like a lamb”. It is a saying regarding the month of March that has stood the test of time. One of the earliest citations is from a book written in 1732 containing a number of sayings but others have not held up over time. Did you know there is a saying in the Bible about a lamb that has not only held up over time but is just as relevant today as it was nearly 2000 years ago. It is spoken by John the Baptist in reference to Jesus Christ and what He would accomplish. It reads, “Behold, The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!

March 1 Skier Buried from Avalanche

Fox new reported recently about a Utah skier who was buried up to his chest for 45 minutes after experiencing an avalanche. Thankfully in the not too distant future there was an off duty EMT that heard his cries for help and found him and dug him out. What a blessing this man was found and experienced being rescued. Did you know the Bible has numerous blessings to be found and experienced? The key though is to not only read about these blessings but to follow through with what you have read. In the book of James it reads, “But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.”
