Confident Expectation

What do you expect to happen during or after or because of something? What do you expect from me? Am I expecting an answer back from you? Are you still expecting me to start talking and not ask another question? I expect that you’re starting to get confused where I am going with this. IContinue reading “Confident Expectation”

Reflection Rabbit Hole

What do you enjoy most about writing? What to write about, C.S Lewis wrote about his “Meditation in a tool shed”. I believe this is the beauty of writing. Stepping out of the experience to look in.  Retrospect or introspect.  “Forget the past and look forward to the future” Do they go together? Is oneContinue reading “Reflection Rabbit Hole”

The only thing to fear…

I remember when I was a little kid, I cried to my grandma that I didn’t want to die. I don’t exactly remember what stirred up this emotion. It could have been something I saw or heard, but the fear of death was instilled in me. Throughout my life, this fear has had certain stages.Continue reading “The only thing to fear…”

Who knows?

What will your life be like in three years? “Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mistContinue reading “Who knows?”

Malachi 3:8-10 “Will a man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In tithes and offerings.Ye are cursed with a curse: for ye have robbed me, even this whole nation.Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and proveContinue reading “Malachi 3: 8-10”

I pray to be praising…

What would you do if you lost all your possessions? Possessions on earth will only weigh one down. Not that we shouldn’t possess anything or that we have to draw a boundary of enough and too much. I believe the most important aspect is our connection to such items. We can enjoy our possessions butContinue reading “I pray to be praising…”

Malachi 3:2-5

The second verse starts off with two rhetorical questions: “But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth?”. These two are asked to enforce the notion like in Psalms: “Every one of them is gone back: they are altogether become filthy; There is none that doeth good, no,Continue reading “Malachi 3:2-5”
