Separated, not Forsaken

I haven’t been active on this blog for a couple of years and a number of reasons. In 2018, it ceased to be an avenue where I could express and explore my faith with sincerity and vulnerability. But besides that, something else, something big, was going on in […]

The More I Think About Hell…

Lately, the more I think about hell, the more I question the idea of God. It’s a strange thing for a Christian to say, especially one who once held strongly and taught much about hell previously. But the truth is, I haven’t felt much like a Christian, in […]

All Suffering Is Borne From Craving

We Don’t See It That Way…

Dear Lord, I’ve been reading about Your prophesies through Isaiah concerning the Hebrews. I know You were very upset with them for disobeying Your commandments. I know You only promised them Your protection and prosperity if they obeyed. But they forsook You and went after other gods… You […]

You Are Too Much

Today, Lord, I just want to declare That You are indeed enough for me. In fact, Lord, You are too much! In You, I have all that I’ll ever need, Much more than I should ever want… Lord, I have tasted and I have seen That You are […]
