The diamond is within and we are without. It is part of our being, but we are looking everywhere else except there: hence the misery, hence the frustration, hence the despair. Look within, look into yourself, and the kingdom of God is yours. We have never lost it, not even for a single moment. In […]
Stress is nature’s design to keep us safe in our survival battle. It can garner all your attention and strength in no time when you are faced with trauma, toxins, or fears and anxieties. But it was meant to be ad hoc. Just to face the battle. But imagine stress all the time as undercurrent […]
To me, prayer has nothing to do with words. It is a silent gratefulness; it is utterly silent, but a deep gratefulness.
