Praying for my Grandma…

My grandmother died August 26, 2009.  Her passing away is another death encounter in our family that I have experienced in a matter of a decade.   As I have written, death is not an enemy. It is neither a friend.  It will always remain a mystery.  And death no matter how it will come, [...]

I miss Jesus…

I can feel it so clearly how much I miss Jesus. The connectivity which I claim I have with Him is elusive to me these past few days. And I miss him terribly. I know when I feel I am connected to him because I do not fear. I know when I am linked [...]
