* Sorry this is one day late. Thanks to some for pointing out that I failed to send it out yesterday! =) We don’t like to make commitments because they take away our freedom. Once we commit ourselves to something, we are stuck with that decision and are not free to do other things. So, […]
Evil. What images come to your mind when you hear that word? Mass murderer like Hitler? Child rapist? Sandy Hook shooter? Yes. They are certainly evil. But what about a college student seeking a career for her fulfillment? What about a man seeking for a wife that will make him happy? What about a mom […]
I’ve heard before a nation falls, the last vice it will get into is calling what is evil, good and what is good, evil. I cannot prove historically or biblically whether that’s true, but it must at least indicate that that nation is in such dire moral depravity that God would be righteous to judge […]

I was rereading the beginning part of C.S. Lewis’s “The Weight of Glory,” and I must say I found myself being thrilled to by bones! So much so that got goosebumps and sort of a “high!” Let me quote one part to you… “I read in a periodical the other day that the fundamental thing […]
Is it just me or do you also find yourself saying, “Well, at least I have….”? It could be, “At least, I have my family,” or “At least, I have my health,” or “At least, I have roof over my head…” Usually, we say this to console ourselves when things are going bad or to […]
What traditions of yours have changed since you came to know the Lord? They may have been family tradition, friendship tradition, national tradition, church tradition or personal tradition.
