Trusting God with Things We Don’t Understand
“Lord, I don’t understand why you seemed okay with this.” This is what I cried to the Lord when I had that season of not getting what the Lord wanted to show to me. I don’t see why His understanding does not align with mine when all I could see is, “this is the right…

When Our Expectations Fail Us (what can we do?)
Expectations are part of our every day lives. Most often than not, our failed expectations towards something or people will drive us crazy if we cannot deal with them in a way that glorifies the Lord.

The Pain of Losing Someone
Losing someone dear and close to us (probably) is the most devastating and painful experience that we could ever go through in life. We lose someone we love in situations like divorce, miscarriage, betrayal, relational separation, and the most painful is death. Sometimes, it will just come so sudden that we feel unprepared.

The cold water that’s touching my feet as it swayed back and forth teasing me to catch its little waves was a picture of rest and joy. This is what I loved being in that place. I am free to stare at the never-ending horizon. I never liked swimming by the way. I just wanted…
