What’s it like to have been in seminary for 6 months (and running)? How Do you rate your faith? I wish there was some way to assess all that. And this isn’t about me alone, it’s mainly God’s domain, yeah? So you don’t assess. Ha ha. My difficulties have mostly been with time and people. [...]

Some people make you feel very uneasy. One of the reasons is that sometimes that relationship is not defined. When people fall in the regular categories of friend, brother, sister, best friend, neighbour, uncle, aunt, your friend’s parent, teacher, senior, pastor, and the like. But when some people blur those boundaries I am at a [...]

Beauty, you kill me Everywhere I turn, you invade me There’s a rush and a turn , a glance And a churn, I wonder how and why You beat me. And you just do. I’m caught in the glance, Appreciation lies in the detail Where glance, a second, or a third is not enough And [...]

God’s doing it again. He doesn’t need my boat to come and calm the storm. He opens doors, brings opportunities, takes me places I can’t imagine going myself. all of this inspite of acting disinterested in what He seems to be showing me in very very subtle ways. The subtle God. Mind you. He doesn’t [...]

Two options have I before me: Do some theology now and study further in Psychology/ Counselling later. Enroll on a Ph.D Psych programme and do a bit of theology later. Theology figures in both places, because when you set out for the Lord, you ought to have a clearer understanding of the troubles in clearly [...]
Pendulum

If you have been following what have been writing in the past few days, you can see my thoughts oscillating like a pendulum. Trust in God Doubt. Faith. More faith. Uncertainty. Struggle. Fatigue. I am in that [...]

“Surrender don’t come natural to me I’d rather fight You for something I don’t really want Than to take what You give that I need” I end up joining Big Daddy Weave in their confession through their song ‘Hold me Jesus’. I’m back to square one. Exactly where I was when my parents showed their [...]
Matters of the heart.

Since I have been reading a bit more of living as a Christian and spending some good time in quiet time, many questions have sprung up. It’s a good sign. My kind of Chritianity isn’t about taking what your parents, Church, Sunday School and VBS gave you, alone. O strongly believe that the walk with [...]
Now what?

I am terribly confused. What exactly does God want me to do? Am I doing all the right things I’m supposed to in finding out His will? Am I sitting back and waiting for God? Why can’t I hear Him speaking? Why isn’t a clear direction pointed out? Every time I think I have a [...]
