Live like Jesus: Pray in the morning
Thursday morning I woke up with my heart beating out of my chest. I checked the time and it was 2:48am. Suddenly, the memory of my nightmare flashed into my mind like a movie playing from beginning to end. In my dream, I’d woken up early to meet God at church. I was clothed in …
Jury Duty
This week I was on a Jury for a DWI case. Coincidentally, and as I mentioned in last week’s blog, I recently went to an addiction treatment center’s luncheon featuring guest speaker Brene Brown.

What if things don’t go your way
This week I faced a setback. I applied to a writing program and I thought I got in, but turns out they didn’t have open positions for the track I was interested in (which I wish had been made clear before I applied but I digress). I must admit I was disappointed. I shut down …

Why I Believe in God: He Answers My Prayers
I don’t think anyone can ever fully understand why I believe in God. It’s physically impossible for a single human being besides myself to understand, but in short, I believe in God because he answers my prayers. One day, in my senior year of high school I took a leap of faith and started praying …
Life update: Church retreat, Joy after heartbreak, Big, Small World
Hello people! Long time no see! I took a bit of a break from the blog last month and focused solely on spreading the gospel via social media. Last week was ‘Giving Glory to God’ month at my church. For the entire month of October we focus everyday on giving glory to God. This can …
Why is it so hard to believe in God?
Sermon Notes from the pulpit: “If you think only standing in your position, you can’t see others and you can’t see the Lord, God, and the Holy Spirit. The earth spins at a rate of 1660 km/hr (400m per second). Yet, you can’t feel it even though you are living on the earth because the …
