We place our focal point of prayer widely on the external avenues of our life and seldom on the internal avenues of our hearts. We've accustomized ourselves to a watered-down version of prayer that seeks promotions and safe travel instead of softened hearts and humility. Why? It simply comes down to our capacity of awareness.… Continue reading believers don’t know how to pray

A Place to Remember
The orangey-pink of the morning sky reflected off the lake's glassy water. I couldn’t help but stare in total awe at the beauty of the creation of the creator who painted it.
The Error Signal of Faith
Humbly using concepts in both faith and science to see the glory of the one who created both.

Alas I knew no thing at all was wrong You left me thinking all was well with you. So with normality I went along… Continue reading Forgive This Hurt
