God‘s wisdom – my comfort
If you have ever read the book of Job, i wonder what stuck with you. Maybe it’s the manner in which Job deals with immense, sudden grief, or how his friends attempt to offer reason and wisdom – or maybe, how all of it seems to be happening on the backdrop of a curious scene that takes place in heaven between Satan…
Reflections on the heart of Christianity
“At the heart of the Christian message is God Himself waiting for His redeemed children to push into conscious awareness of His Presence.” – A. W. Tozer A thought-provoking book I’d like to recommend: A. W. Tozer’s “The Pursuit of God”. What is more, it’s the reason I am sitting here, sipping some ginger tea on a rainy Sunday, desperate to share…
The straight, narrow, and… hard
Every once and while there will be a verse I stumble over during a morning devotional only to have it show up again during the day or week in some other shape or form.Sometimes it will be something encouraging, sometimes an answer or clarification, and sometimes a nagging feeling. The latter of which leads me to my blog. Mostly I write here…
Imago dei
Trusting God to take this writing and do his work, I will allow myself to jot down some thoughts in obedience and leave them in their imperfect form in my blog.Inspired by the very concept I’d like to share with you today. I got a fresh perspective on my Christian walk a couple weeks ago through a Bible study I had been…
Creation Tales of Today and the Lies They Tell
An Essay Introduction The Big Bang Theory[1] and Darwin’s Theory of Evolution[2] both have proponents and critics in the scientific world today. Critics argue based on fossil findings or complexities that beg for an intelligent design rather than pure chance and natural selection[3]. Recently this theory of intelligent design has gotten attention, with scientists like Stephen Meyer bringing forth scientific evidence that…
My worth
What we allow to define us and where it leads us Has a fleeting thought of losing something ever put your mind into panic mode?It’s not like anything has happened yet. It’s just a thought. But the storm it unleashes inside alarms you to the reality that you have attached a significance to this something. So much so, that it triggers anxiety…
New, Exciting, just not this…
Getting to the root of feeling stuck and waiting on God’s “bigger” and “better” Have you ever felt stuck. I mean really stuck in life. The kind where all around you there seems to be this beautiful momentum but your life is just on hold or at most a slow progression in some unknown space. Maybe you have just come out of…
There’s got to be more to life
Longing for that freedom in Christ It started with a simple question. “How do you see God?” Then gradually a group of teenagers started to express with a deep sense of reference their frustration. Some expressed a sense of vast distance between them and God, while others felt a heavy weight regarding the expectations they felt were in place. Still others expressed…
Don’t look back!
What we can learn from Lot’s wife – approaching the new year. New Years is usually a time I reflect on the year gone by and all that has happened. This year is certainly no exception. While my ponderings take me through the highs and lows, there is something beautifully different this year. My mind does not linger as it used to,…

Sara Groves – The Word:
I’ve done every devotional
Been every place emotional
Trying to hear a new word from God
And I think it’s very odd,
that while I attempt to help myself
My Bible sits upon my shelf
With every promise
I could ever need
I think it’s time I rediscover
All the ground that I have covered, like ‘Seek Ye first’ what a verse
We are pressed but not crushed,
perplexed but don’t despair.
We are persecuted but not abandoned
We are no longer slaves
we are daughters and sons,
and when we are weak
we are very strong
And neither death nor life
nor present nor future
nor depth nor height
can keep us from the love of Christ
And the Word I need
is the Word that was
who put on flesh to dwell with us.
In the beginning….
