Yesterday, I wrote about a short story about my relationship with God growing up. It started off very oppositional and foreign, but has eventually become more natural and familial as I’ve gotten older. I’ve now gotten to a point where I want more. The question is how do you build a relationship with God? AContinueContinue reading “My Christian Life as A Love Story (Pt. 2): Relationship with God”

My Christian Life as A Love Story (Pt. 1)
I like who I’m becoming and God is an inseparable part of that. As I’ve been developing, I have been trying to figure out how to explain to people who Christianity as a religion is flawed like all religions but Christianity as a faith is more than church on Sunday, it’s a love story everyday.ContinueContinue reading “My Christian Life as A Love Story (Pt. 1)”
Curses & Swear Words
When I was a little child, I was outstandingly pure. I was the little boy who constantly told my grandmother and other family members about their language. I even remember the first time I swore, under provocation of classmates, I cried for 20 minutes because I felt bad. Now that I’m part-sailor, I wonder, shouldContinueContinue reading “Curses & Swear Words”
Childhood Bible Stories: Jonah and the Whale – Running Away from God
Jonah is one of the stories I remember hearing about as a kid and mentally mixing with Pinocchio. All I ever remembered was someone got swallowed by a whale for acting foolish.

Singlehood
Singlehood and solitariness. My initial conversation with God brought me to a point of frustration with the way I interacted with the world. I felt so dependent on others for my motivation that when I didn’t have them, I collapsed. Why was it so hard to look in the mirror and love what I saw?ContinueContinue reading “Singlehood”
