One area that I have always struggled with in my walk with God is a lack of faith. I have the ability to memorize scripture, make endless biblical connections, teach, lead, and disciple others, recite the gospel, share the gospel, and all sorts of other “spiritual” things. But believing that God can and will doContinue reading “Desperate Faith”

On Belonging
Hello all, Long time no write! If you have not yet guessed, today’s post is about belonging, or the times I’ve felt a lack thereof. What is actually quite interesting is that for those who know me, I am generally regarded as a pretty sociable person. Some of my friends have even had the pleasureContinue reading “On Belonging”
There Is An Arbiter Between Us
Hello everyone, Happy Easter weekend! It has been a while since I have written, but I recently finished the Book of Job and thought its concept of a mediator to be profound. No better time to get back into it than on this sombre day before the resurrection of our Lord. To begin this post,Continue reading “There Is An Arbiter Between Us”
Show Me My Mortality
Hello all, For today’s post, I wanted to start with a story. A couple of months ago, while on a drive home, I was told that my cousin had passed away. I wasn’t super close with them and hadn’t seen them for a few years but the suddenness caught me a bit off guard. IContinue reading “Show Me My Mortality”
On Humility
Hello all, Today I wanted to write on the topic of humility. It’s a topic we’ve been exploring at church during our Sunday school and it’s a topic I feel that I myself may need a reminder of for myself as well (because it’s better that I humble myself than have God do it 😩😩).Continue reading “On Humility”
A Tale of Two Marriages
So a few weeks ago, I was having a discussion with some of the youth at our church. We were planning a dating workshop and one question that came up was regarding the biblical stance on dating versus something like an arranged marriage. Two things here are important to note: Rather, the primary concern thatContinue reading “A Tale of Two Marriages”
The Lord is My Inheritance
Currently, I find myself in a season of waiting. And with all seasons of waiting, there is much uncertainty that comes with it. There are so many things in my life I’d like to see change in and with but the answer that I often find God giving is “not now” or “not yet.” AndContinue reading “The Lord is My Inheritance”
Hope for the Pessimist
Some of you may be surprised to hear this but at my core, I am actually a pessimist. Not necessarily at some conscious philosophical level but with regard to the lens through which I view the world, my innate or instinctual response is that things just won’t work out. Whether it’s the world at large,Continue reading “Hope for the Pessimist”
In Vain and In Vanity
Did you know that the words for vain and vanity both come from the Latin word “vanus” meaning “empty” or “without substance.” We could also use words like “void” or “pointless” or “vacant.” Each of these definitions convey a similar meaning—that something has been wasted. It could be a waste of time, a waste ofContinue reading “In Vain and In Vanity”
How Beautiful Are the Feet of Those Who Bring Good News
Hello everyone, Recently, I read through Isaiah and really enjoyed it. So I just wanted to share some of the things I read! On another note, this is my first post in a while that is going directly into a text head-on instead of a topical piece so I am going back a bit toContinue reading “How Beautiful Are the Feet of Those Who Bring Good News”
