Nature reveals the core of spirituality through its open windows.God can be seen as the calm centre within a hurricane – peaceful, soothing, and the origin of creation’s movement.All of creation orbits this Centre and is driven by it.The Great Paradox:While the winds are turbulent, fierce, and destructive, they also represent the Holy Spirit, guidingContinue reading “Nature – An Open Window to Spirituality”

Living in the Present Moment
focusing on what is happening now, acknowledging my racing thoughts and strong emotions, and noticing those around me are my greatest challenges. The fierce and gentle winds of distraction, along with clouds of worries about the past or future, shift my focus away from the present, pulling me back either into the past or forwardContinue reading “Living in the Present Moment”
Father’s Eternal Waiting
Each day, I begin my prayer by reverencing the space because my Prodigal Fatheris eternally present-waiting, calling, and drawing me, the prodigal son,to return.He invites menot because I am perfect, deserving, earned, or pure, but because Godlongs toembrace me,kiss me,place a ring on my finger,offer me sandals,give me a regal robe,reconcile,heal,and celebrate my daily return.IContinue reading “Father’s Eternal Waiting”
Relay of Life
Our days begin with planning, projects, and programmes, building relationships through discussions, debates, and drives, dialogue.We strive for perfection, but we accept imperfections. We seek completion but acknowledge incompletion.We aim for order, yet we encounter disorder.We hope for calm, but experience chaos.Nothing in life is usually perfect, complete, orderly or calm. Nonetheless, we start, knowingContinue reading “Relay of Life”

Christ, the Gardener
“Those God knew before time, God also predestined us to be shaped in the image of the Son…” (Romans 8:28-30) As I pondered Jesus deliberately calling each of his disciples by name while walking through Galilee, I was struck by his intentional transformation journey with them. He moulded and reshaped his disciples into his imageContinue reading “Christ, the Gardener”
A Toddler’s Grace
“Blessed are your eyes that see what you are seeing! (Luke 10:23-24) Thinking about this passage, I realise there’s a difference between seeing something on the surface and grasping its underlying meaning or significance. I can take a situation at face value, but I can also catch the message behind what I see or hear. Continue reading “A Toddler’s Grace”
The Oil is on the Way
Oh! What a Beautiful Sunday.It is Samuel’s Christening day.Can’t remember when last we had such a celebration.But a small group is at the church waiting in anticipation.We watch, we wait and pray,As we hear, the oil is on the way.Don’t ask me on which road it is passing.I can’t believe this is really happening.One wouldContinue reading “The Oil is on the Way”
God’s Embrace
Have you ever experienced the deep feeling of missing someone? When the opportunity arises to reunite with them in person, you hold them in a timeless embrace. This applies to God. When we distance ourselves from God, His desire to reunite with us deepens as He patiently awaits our return. When we choose to returnContinue reading “God’s Embrace”
