How to Trust God Amidst Uncertainty
It took me around 30 minutes to start this piece. I usually know what to say because I’ve gone through the experiences I had written about. But, this one is different. This chapter of my life, I am currently re-living. Like retaking a test I’ve put off for some time, only to face it once…

What’s Wrong With Parroting: How To Live Authentically
I used to have a friend who told me that he stopped going to church because people just mimic each other. This friend of mine loved to figure things out for himself. He loves life. To experience life as it comes. To experience the fullness of it. To live life as authentically as possible. Come…

Don’t Look Back: Lessons from Sodom & Gomorrah and Beyond
I scroll through social media and see a familiar face– he’s at a better place now, it seems. We’re both improving, as we live life separately. I am doing way better now.

have you ever seen the wonder?

An Open Letter To The One I Left Behind
I’m sorry if I can’t always be there for you. When life gets hard and messy– and things just got to give. When schedules are re-arranged– and I’d have to put His call over my life first. I’m sorry if I wasn’t able to put you first. I am also learning. I’m sorry if I…

Not mainly spiritually, but physically and mentally. Not only…
