To my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, I don't know what it was that made You step down from glory and clothe Yourself in flesh, but I'm glad you did. I don't understand why You loved me, knowing who I would be and what sins I would commit, but I am glad You did and... Continue Reading →
What is the power of prayer? Many things go into prayer, the greatest ingredient is faith, but faith misplaced is also the biggest mistake.

I remember my friend once explaining to me the Jewish idea of peace.
