Beauty and Love

So I recently saw this video from Dove on sketches of women. They had a facial sketcher sit down and sketch two drawings. One of the woman describing herself, and the other from another person describing the first woman. It was quite amazing to see how different each of these descriptions were and what was…

Prayers for Boston and the World

Honestly, it’s been a bit crazy to hear about the bombing in Boston. The bombing have luckily killed only a few people, but still a few too many, because things like this should not be happening. It’s painful to imagine family and friends just shocked and scared about how their loved ones are doing and…

The Prophesied Messiah

I’ve been digging into Isaiah lately in an attempt to go through the old testament. I’ve never actually gone through Isaiah because I feared that it would bore me to death, and to be honest some parts are quite boring. But lemme say, some parts make reading through all the boring stuff worth it, especially…

One thing about social workers is that it’s a ridiculously tough job and you don’t have regular work hours. Once you know the problems in the neighborhood you can’t separate yourself from…

My Short Experience with the NYC Education System

I’ve always had some thoughts here and there about our education system, mostly from my own perspective of course. In my life, from what I can remember, I’ve been to public school for the first two years of my education, then private for 5, and starting from middle school on public education in NYC. When…

To whom shall we go?

Lord, to whom shall we go? After this many of his disciples turned back and no longer walked with him. So Jesus said to the Twelve, “Do you want to go away as well?” Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life, and we have believed,…

God glorified through Narnia

So a few years ago for Christmas, I got my sister the Chronicles of Narnia book with all of them in chronological order. I’ve never read anything by CS Lewis, and you might chuckle but it’s true! All of you must be wondering, how can you be a Christian and not have read anything by…

Winter Break Reading List

I guess one thing I usually do over breaks is some reading. One book I recently finished and would highly recommend is “In the Name of Jesus” by Henri Nouwen. It’s a beautifully and succinct book on Christian Leadership that I would honestly recommend to not only every Christian Leader but also every Christian. I would…
