CREATIVITY: A JOURNEY
It never really looks like what we think it would. Our answered prayers, I mean. Under-qualified, under-staffed and under maintenance. That's how the Israelites scouted the promised land. Sure, it was destined to be theirs but, oh, dang, the amount of work it would take. Sure, there were pomegranates and figs ripe for the picking; [...]
I chose to do this #paintbynumbers painting because flamingoes remind me of balance even though they look naturally like the kind of animal to tip over very quickly given their skinny legs and fluffy tops 🤚 #noshame It gives me the feeling that even in chaos, I can still find my centre as long as it is built upon [...]
Hey Busy Bee, was thinking about you and just wanted to encourage you. You asked Him for greater job opportunities, now you're so busy you see your office more than your own home. You now have to work into the late nights and even on Sundays. It seems like this answered prayer is more curse [...]
I have often visualised my life in parts through seasons. There are times sunny and bright, some felt like a dry and desert land, others an abyss of darkness, I've had amazing mountain experiences and still others like the harshest winter (which is funny because Malaysia is totally tropical the island breeze). Anyone who has [...]
A young missionary was recently murdered on a remote island off the coast of India while attempting to share the gospel with the most isolated tribe in the world. Some are calling him a martyr. I personally can't help but see him a little more as a trespasser. But what do I know. While this [...]
“God stopped being real to me because He wasn’t there for me when I needed Him most.” I didn’t delve into what she meant, but it gave me a picture of her perspective of this God she trusted that ignored her in her pain and overlooked her in her lowest point of her life at [...]
Who in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most?”Mark Twain That was a quote by Mark Twain that a friend sent to me today, asking my thoughts on it.In short. No.I don’t believe we should pray for satan at all. Especially not for him to [...]
The year is coming to an end. December is in a few days, then it'll be 2019. This year, I did a lot of big, bold things. I also did a lot of small, seemingly unimportant things. Seemingly unimportant but just as significant. It's the things we don't find on social media because who wants [...]
"I refuse to live a life that has already been lived, to be a story already told." The Last Arrow by Erwin McManus is a passionate reminder that each moment we have is not just precious but purposed. The temporary is laced with the eternal through our decisions. Many of us live avoiding death. That's [...]
This trip was really significant. But more on that later. The country first: I had the privilege to visit Sri Lanka last week for a friend's wedding and I have to say I was not disappointed. The people are the kindest, food is tasty, streets are clean, desserts are amazing and everyone sure knows how [...]
