Unrecorded Series 2: Unrecorded...but proven.
Part 2 of the Unrecorded Series! I hope it resonates with you
The unrecorded life of Jesus was a crucial season for character cultivation. Throughout this period, Jesus accumulated a significant number of experiences, challenges, and interactions all contributing to refine His character and strengthen His commitment to His divine mission. It was a time when His actions were purely motivated by His love for the Father and His compassion for humanity, rather…

Unrecorded Series 1: Unrecorded…but known.
This is long overdue, sorry! But here it is, I pray the Lord will speak to you through this. Keep seeking!
Jesus came down to the world for one reason: to fulfill the calling of the Christ. But isn’t it interesting that the majority of His life here on earth isn’t spent doing what the long-awaited Christ “must” be doing (i.e., miracles, healing, ruling)? The people are waiting for Him to rule and reign over their oppressors. The King that will reign in the greatest kingdom of all. However, opposite…

Lessons I learned from being in uncomfortable situations
Enjoy my journey into discomfort, inspired by the book "The 5AM Club"
The place where your greatest discomfort lies is also the spot where your largest opportunity lives. The beliefs that disturb you, the feelings that threaten you, the projects that unnerve you and the unfoldment of your talents that the insecure part of you is resisting are precisely where you need to go to. The 5AM Club by Robin Sharma I picked up a new book to read at the beginning of this…

Remain here..
“My soul is very sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and watch. “ Mark 14:34 (ESV) In the most intense moment of Jesus’ life that His sweat fell like drops of blood at Gethsemane, the only thing that He asked was that the three people in His most intimate circle would join Him and stay with Him. We are in the middle of a war where hundreds and hundreds are dying by day, children, babies, and…

My mother takes care of my hair.
My mother takes care of my hair. I didn’t grow up with a lot so paying for someone else to cut my hair was not that much of a plausible option. From I was young, my mother would cut both mine and my sister’s hair. Sometimes, she would cut it too short than my liking, in which I will be found either frowning or crying, but she would always say it was for the best. Sometimes, she would cut it in…

Reflections on Worship: A Widow's Offering
What did the poor widow feel as she released the two small copper coins from her hand? God said worship me and the poor unnamed widow said yes. But what did she feel while at it? I bet she felt ashamed for bringing so little. As the noise of the large sums of golds and coins echoed all over the temple, I bet she felt unworthy to even enter in. I bet she felt insignificant and unwanted. I…

Unrecorded
Have you heard of the phrase “Pics or it didn’t happen”? According to Urban Dictionary, this is a phrase used primarily on online forums stating that the person refuses to believe a person’s claim unless it is shown by a photograph for proof. How about receipts? Nope, not the paper one. Receipts is slang for “proof” or “evidence,” often used to call out someone for lying or to show someone is…

Psalms on Poems: Chapter 104
Sharing something new!
You made the vast and wide sea, Teeming with tales and untold mysteries. Would it be that You’re telling me, You’ll meet me in million discoveries? You made the strong branches of trees, Where birds rest their tired wings. Would it be that You’re telling me, I can rest when the birds sing? You made the mountains high and lofty, Where wildflowers bloom untouched. Would it be that You’re…

Reflections on Worship: Abraham
What did Abraham felt as he lifted his hands to stab Isaac? God said worship me and Abraham said yes. But what did he feel while at it? I bet his heart isn’t leaping with joy. I bet his heart isn’t feeling grateful. I bet though he wasn’t able to eat that day his stomach felt like emptying itself with what taste like a bitter bile. I bet he felt sick. I bet he felt like every ounce of what…

Part 5: John the Baptist’s life away from the spotlight
Part 5: John the Baptist’s life away from the spotlight
Meditate on: Matthew 3:1-4 (ESV) 1 In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, 2 “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” 3 For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah when he said, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness: ‘Prepare the way of the Lord; make his paths straight.’” 4 Now John wore a garment of camel’s hair and a leather belt around…

Part 4: Paul’s life away from the spotlight
Meditate on: [Gal 1:11-18 ESV] 11 For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel. 12 For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ. 13 For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it. 14 And I was advancing in…
