Fasting is one of those Christian disciplines that…tbh as the kids say…a lot of people avoid. It’s the slap-your-face kind of sacrifice. The kind that you immediately feel and feel specifically, and that’s why…I dare say…most of us don’t do it unless we feel like we have to do it. Like when the Church calls […]
One Word 2014: Ready
I was writing in my journal when God impressed one word in my heart: ready. I didn’t even know about one words or One Word 365 until I got on my bloglovin feed after my journal writing time and saw these posts about one words. The word “ready” have been bugging me and I realized that […]
Farewell to 2013, Hello New Year

For a while, our kidmin has been trying to get a tree but they run out. This year, I […]
