1 John 3:1a – “Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!” Growing up without a father sure wasn’t easy. When I was a toddler, I perhaps didn’t even know I needed a father, but not having a father to teach me to rideContinue reading “Father’s Day!”

Judging others & our standard for it
Apology I’m sorry if I have ever given the impression on social media that I’m very righteous or very holy or very religious. That has never been my intention. I have no righteousness of my own(Philippians 3:9). I have no good apart from God (Psalm 16:2) I am still a sinner just like everyone else(couldContinue reading “Judging others & our standard for it”
Prayer before Post
Something I wrote during the 2nd Covid-19 wave. Thought about saving it in my blog “When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan.” – Proverbs 29:2 I get it! You might be frustrated at the situation right now. You feel helpless. We want the lockdowns to end, weContinue reading “Prayer before Post”
Loki – TV series
Loki – TV series I used to never understand how people liked reading books more than watching a movie of it until about 4 years back I started getting involved in Bible studies. I don’t like comparing tv series, movies, etc to anything biblical but here’s an observation. So many people have been going crazyContinue reading “Loki – TV series”

Isn’t it harmonious when all the musicians in a group are singing/ playing instruments in theContinue reading “Music”
Good Friday
“There is a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of each man which cannot be satisfied by any created thing but only by God the Creator, made known through Jesus Christ.” Pascal(yeah, the science guy) Most people ask, if God is real, why doesn’t He stop evil? May be cause if He did. He’d start withContinue reading “Good Friday”
Such were some of you (1 Cor 6:11)
ReminderSuch were some of you – This one line needs to be a constant reminder to all believers of what they were saved from, how God saved them, how God’s Amazing Grace found them. “And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the nameContinue reading “Such were some of you (1 Cor 6:11)”
Nice Guys Finish Last
The Race They say nice guys finish last, but that’s only cause you think they’re running the race from your perspective. They’re not running the race most of the others are in, they’re not in the rat race of the world. They are in fact in another meaningful race where they’re far ahead of othersContinue reading “Nice Guys Finish Last”
Hardship – Relationship
Hardships make relationships stronger! Growth :“The sweetest songs of earth, have been sung in sorrow. The richest things in character, have been reached through pain.” – J.R. Miller. I would not exchange even a single moment of hardship and trial of my past for a moment of happiness. Growing in holiness is more important thanContinue reading “Hardship – Relationship”
