I had a pretty great year! This year, I had a million reasons to judge God faithful. I looked back at my journey, and I saw Him fulfil every promise He had made. It wasn’t without its fair share of difficulties, but they all paled in comparison to the goodness of God. How was your […]

“I want a divorce.” Not this again, Michael groaned internally. He spoke softly, almost whispering, so his frustration wouldn’t show. “Baby, we have been over this. We’re not getting a divorce.” Sarah burst into tears, and Michael groaned again. He dropped the copy of The Economist he had been trying to read. Trying because the

It is a Saturday, and I’m sitting in a home fellowship. We just wrapped up prayers, and we were in the sharing session when my phone dinged with an incoming email. I’ve been expecting the email for weeks, so I quickly navigate to my inbox, but I do not open it up just yet. A

Are you a good friend? You know that thing where you only learn about someone after a major public news event? That’s how I met Sam Bankman-Fried. He was once the 41st-richest American, but today he is serving a 25-year term in prison for financial fraud. I’ll leave you to do your own research if

I remember a vivid memory from when I was 10 years old. My best friend at the time, who was also 10, cooked her first meal. It’s a vivid memory for me because growing up as a young girl, I felt there was an unspoken rule that said I had to learn to start cooking

Pregnant with her third child after having a boy and a girl, my mum had hopes that the child would be a boy. In fact, minutes after giving birth, she was still convinced it might have been a boy because in her words “she had no hair.” Alas, the ‘not a boy’ was me. I
I saw an Instagram post recently where the author was sharing that due to global warming and climate change, the earth could start spinning slower and days could get longer. The most liked comment on the post was questioning whether days were actually getting longer and I had to agree because even if it’s true,

2021 was when I first came to the conclusion that I had a paradoxical personality. It just made sense. I could be the most outgoing person you know (as I’ve grown older I’ve really mellowed out) but at the same time, I could easily tire from social interactions. Case in point: during my service year,
