Ask, Seek, Knock [from the Archives]

Sometimes the old things come back to teach us again. This is a message I really think I need to share again with you all. It is a repost from 2009, in my early blog days. Enjoy. Greetings, Matthew 7:7-8 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it [...]

What is so magical about midnight?

Why do we stay up until the middle of the night… merely to stay up to the middle of the night? Why does the world go insane because the year increments by one? Why does it matter that the second hand ticks that one time? Why is it special? Why is that one minute passing [...]

A Rant For You

What is the meaning of life? Why are we here? Does it matter? Should we give any thought to anything beyond ourselves? Why should we trust anyone but our own selves? What is there beyond what we see? Are there hopes, dreams, possibilities beyond what we can ken at this moment? Is there hope beyond [...]

Christ in Pain

When the chips are down. When the rubber meets the road. When all hell breaks loose, literally. When “things don’t quite turn out.” When your life is wrecked, devastated, turned upside down. When your heart is torn into shreds and fed to the dogs. When the worst thing you could imagine… happens. How is God [...]

Prayer Vs. Bible Reading: Which is Better?

Prayer is a beautiful, amazing, powerful thing. God’s Word is an even more beautiful, amazing, powerful thing. Or is it the other way around? Or… does it make any sense either way? I don’t think it does. I often hear people extolling one or other of these glorious things over the other one, and although [...]

Mastering the Art of Singletasking

Multitasking is a common buzzword right now. And it is both decried as having a viciant and virulent effect on our capability to function with facility, and as being the prime panacea of production. Which is right? Well, honestly, I don’t think either are right. I think multitasking has its place, and I think it [...]

Eccentricity, Mathematics, and Peculiar People

I am eccentric. Quite so. In fact, almost invariably so. And I quite like it. Now, when most people notice my eccentricity (and they do), they generally comment on how weird it is, and then make some comment about fitting in or having to still be able to communicate with people or something along those [...]

A little writing… what is love?

What is love?   The first cry of a newborn child, echoing in her mother’s heart like the ripples of a new fountain, which never cease to tremor and fill her life with the simple joy that now, she is a mother.   The beauty of a rose on a hillside, the grass nestling it [...]

I Want to Forget

I have a pretty bad memory. Honest. Yes, I’ve trained it to be able to memorise things rapidly and securely, but I needed to do that because my natural memory is so bad. I’m so bad I can forget the topic of a conversation halfway through the third sentence. I’m even having a hard time [...]

How being sheltered improves your socialization

Wow, I am really sorry guys. Yesterday was a pretty tough day for me, and I completely forgot about my poor blog. So I hope you’ll forgive me and read this, even though it’s a day late. I remember about three and half years or so ago, I was riding in a car with Bro. [...]
