The Meaning of life
We often struggle to identify the values and beliefs in our lives. Sometimes life is full of promises and surprises, at other times, life seems meaningless.

Seven Days of Prayer
My grandfather visited us to spend time with us. One of his main agenda was to pray for me for seven consecutive days. I have always kept it private. However, this time I want to share it with you. Unlike before, my health was not in its best shape. It was getting worse; it rocked
