Dear Daddy, Thank you for always hearing us. We are grateful for your ever-presence hope, love, and faith. Daddy, we pray for mercy for our world. Mercy, Lord! We need your forgiveness in this trying time. Forgive us all where we are unconscious of our sins. Forgive us for our known sins and wrongdoings. Father,Continue reading “A Prayer for Today (1)”

Get Over It !
How do people get along in a crowded house without stepping on to one another’s feet? How do mothers keep calm when they are stuck with their little children in their home for days? What did spouses do to contain their anger? Everyone has a right to get angry. However, no one has the powerContinue reading “Get Over It !”
Those Who Have No Control (3)
I grew up in a home where violence against women was justified. You are told your spouse needs to beat you to show he is in charge. If he did not, then it means something is wrong. Hence, every woman I knew as a child had endured mild or severe intimate partner violence. From generationContinue reading “Those Who Have No Control (3)”
Those Who Have No Control (2)
There are two categories of residents in any country: (1) those with homes, and (2) those WITHOUT homes. We call them the “homeless”. While we are worried about the length of days we are going to spend in confinement, do we ever take a second to think about these homeless people who have nowhere toContinue reading “Those Who Have No Control (2)”
Those Who Have No Control (1)
We have ghost towns. Children tucked away from the world like sardines. The adults enrobed in their inner worlds of future uncertainty. No movement, no contacts, and even time seem at a standstill. In all these are people in mourning, but no one is talking about them. They are those whose loved ones passed awayContinue reading “Those Who Have No Control (1)”
It’s Payback Time!
Jesus’ reaction to what James and John said was a perfect example of why revenge is a sin. On the other side of the spectrum were the two sons of Zebedee James and John who would take no nonsense from anyone. As a result of their brashness attitudes, they ended up earning from Jesus ChristContinue reading “It’s Payback Time!”
Prenez Soin De Vous
David was a busy king. From a shepherd boy to a fugitive running to protect his life from King Saul, to his eventual days as King of Israel. There were lots of events (such as fighting wars outside of his kingdom and within his household) in his life that by the time he retired, heContinue reading “Prenez Soin De Vous”
When Gratitude Is All You Need
Thank Him for His goodness. Open your mouth and praise the Lord! The Alpha and Omega! Prince of Peace, Lord of lords, Lion of Judah, Emmanuel, El Shaddai-God Almighty. He is bigger than what people are saying. He is afraid of no one, and no one dares challenge His power. There is none like Him.Continue reading “When Gratitude Is All You Need”
Love est un Cadeau Divin
Jesus Christ first loved us when He wholeheartedly chose to push aside his comfort for our sake. He has everything but abandoned them when He put us ahead in the decision-making process of salvation. That is a love that cannot be bought in any supermarkets or sperm banks. The same love of Christ is whatContinue reading “Love est un Cadeau Divin”
The Evil Called Social Distancing
Already with increased globalisation, Individualism has overtaken collectivism. The more the availability of eased online social platforms, the more we see people locking up themselves, individually in their virtual world where they only control their existence. Sadly, the current Coronavirus help create an intense aspect of the individualism, which is, Social Distancing (SD). I understandContinue reading “The Evil Called Social Distancing”
The Victims of Abandonment
Did you hear about the mass death of the older people in some Spanish deserted retirement homes? Do you have cases of spiral abandonment of the older ones during this time? Well, I have one to share with you. Last week, my 90-year-old neighbour’s sons came to move him out of his house into aContinue reading “The Victims of Abandonment”
Jehovah Sees
When in 1993 Lionel Peterson and his gospel band sang the song Peace, little did he know we would need the assurance from its textual form. A quick click on the weblink or turning on the TV or radio brings nothing but frightening stories of countries after countries locking down. Apart from the physical manifestationsContinue reading “Jehovah Sees”
Watch Your Mouth !
Everyone has something to say about this Covid-19. However, many people are buying into the negativities of this pandemic. You become what you feed yourself. In other words, your mouth produces your existence and everything you are or will be. What is your language in such a time like this? Are you resigning to theContinue reading “Watch Your Mouth !”
God’s Appointed Time
The story of Ruth began with unhappy tales that end well. A marriage to Mahlon was necessary for Ruth for her to get to her destiny. There was no child between them, and worst of all, Mahlon died within the space of ten years after his father’s death. If Ruth had not married Mahlon, sheContinue reading “God’s Appointed Time”
10 Positive Facets of the Covid-19
1. Spiritual Growth: Life is a battle. A newborn cries the moment he or she steps out into this world because of the journey of life ahead of them. Both the terrific time and then wrong time requires spiritual warfare. A busy time means lesser time for intensive spiritual activities. However, being lockdown means moreContinue reading “10 Positive Facets of the Covid-19”
