I thought I’d leave this blog for good after I wrote my last post (“Trial Testimony”), feeling that since writing, God had failed me. Through the insomnia that began this past April, I was so eager to make a testimony of what God could do. And he indeed healed me for some months, May to…

I have been waiting till I could speak in total retrospect about what I have been going through these past couple of months. Yet again, I didn’t know what exactly I am waiting for… a feeling? A situation? A sign? The fact is, there are days, still (most days actually) that are still hard, and…

I’d like to meditate on this passages based on three main themes:  God sends Moses and Aaron again to Pharaoh saying that he has made Moses like God to Pharaoh and Aaron his prophet. As such, Aaron would be the messenger, the spokesperson before Pharaoh. God works through people, even though he has the power…

“Then the LORD said to Moses, ‘Now you will see what I will do to Pharaoh: Because of my mighty hand he will let them go; because of my mighty hand he will drive them out of his country.’” (Exodus 6: 1) Coming back from Canada, I feel I can finally breathe again. I experienced…

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things will be given to you as well.” Matthew 6: 33 Event-wise, 2024 was the year of Paul’s birth (May 31st) and Lebeca’s baptism (October 13th). By the grace of God, Paul was born very healthy at 3.5kg and 53cm. Though I suffered a…

I’ve made a decision to pray before eating each morning. Before looking at my phone, before playing with my kids, before anything, pray. The Lord convicted me two days ago that I need to pray in this last month of 2024, and pray with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength believing that God will…

“Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” Exodus 3: 5 A reflection on Exodus 3 Moses had gone from being a prince in Egypt to a nameless shepherd in the desert, and there he encountered God personally. It was an extraordinary encounter on a very ordinary day in…

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body I live by faith in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself up for me.” Galatians 2: 20 Unless my ego dies first, my faith will die. My ego…

The other day, I found myself so confused about my faith, faith in God, faith in general that I literally texted my parents, my spiritual mentors, “What does it mean to have faith in God?” It felt like such a basic question for one who has claimed to have it for the past 15 years,…
