Resurrection Sunday: The Lord is Risen, Alleluia

Good Friday belonged to men; they could do what they wanted, and they did their worst – they nailed Jesus to the Cross. But Easter Sunday belonged to God. Men have no part in it, except to watch in awe and amazement at the marvelous things God was doing. Men condemned Jesus to death, but […]

Silent Saturday: When God Seems Silent

It’s been a day since Jesus died. The Holy Bible doesn’t tell us what was it like to go through the silence of Saturday, to be in the unknown, to have doubt, fear of persecution etc. We all have been in that place. To worry about tomorrow. The why question looms in our minds. Why […]

Worst Easter Ever

Worst Easter Ever! Why wouldn’t it be? Celebrating the resurrection of the Lord Jesus under Covid19 Lock-down. It seems really bad. We can’t go out to church on Holy week (Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Easter Sunday). We can’t wear our newly bought clothing, can’t go out to a restaurant, can’t meet family and friends nor […]

30 Years 30 Lessons

Bye, bye Twenties! Hello, Thirties! I believe aging is the process of accumulating God’s faithfulness. As I step into another year of His faithfulness, I want to share lessons that I’ve learned over the course of these years. Though most of this is an outflow of Christ-Faith over the last 10 years.

New experiences, new friendship, new adventure, new joys, but also new tears, new sorrows, new detours, new hardships, new challenges. […]

The Great Power Struggle

The word ‘POWER’ is made up of just five letters but the weight and the strength this word carries is felt most by those who either use it or are under authority of someone who posses it in immense quantity. But power, in more ways than another becomes abusive or healthy in the hands of […]

The Power of a Whisper

**Phone Ringing** +3754 calling… – I answer: Hello Papa. That’s a phone call I receive few times a week. My dad works in a foreign country, and he uses some VOIP (voice over internet phone) number. Every time the number changes to something new. In fact it even shows other foreign phone code numbers. One […]

#TheXmasStory: Why Were The Wise-men So Wise?

All this just for that one special day in our calender called Christmas. When we mention Christmas to little children their eyes light up with joy because […]
