Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

by Gilian, in category Reflections, Thoughts

Every morning, my family watches an episode of this Netflix series called BAKING IMPOSSIBLE where a baker is teamed up with an engineer.

The Tree VS The Rock

by Gilian, in category Thoughts

8-yr old son: God should have used a tree. You can get water from a tree. Me: That’s why he used a rock. Getting water from a tree is too easy, any man can do that, but getting water from a rock? Now that’s something supernatural. Something extraordinary. So, when you think things are already… Read More

Follow the Teacher

by Gilian, in category Journal, Reflections, Words

My four year-old started enjoying the How To Draw videos of Art for Kids Hub. In each video, a kid is with an adult and the adult shows how to draw step by step and the kid follows everything that the adult says. While watching one of the videos this afternoon, I noticed that he… Read More

Eyes On You

by Gilian, in category Journal, Thoughts, Words

“But our eyes are on you.” Such a powerful line. There are times when we reach that place of not knowing what to do just like King Jehoshaphat in the book of 2 Chronicles. Whenever we don’t know how else to face our problems, remember how Jeshoshaphat showed his faith in God by showing HUMILITY-… Read More

5 Reasons Why You Should Not Be Afraid of the Book of Revelation

by Gilian, in category Journal, Reflections, Words

I did not understand everything at first, but it was not as bad as people said it would. I think it is because these people have focused on the judgement (for the wicked) part in the first few chapters that they have not cherished the last part—my favorite!

Lying Lips

by Gilian, in category ASCENT, Thoughts, Words

Deliver me, O Lord, from lying lips, from a deceitful tongue.  Psalm 120:2 The cause of David’s distress was lying lips Have you ever experienced being in trouble just because fake news spread about you? Or because someone talked behind your back and spread lies about you? It caused you sleepless nights, right? This is exactly… Read More

Ascent 2021

by Gilian, in category Journal, Reflections, Words
WAhbah Crater, Saudi Arabia

This year’s one word is ASCENT. After the crazy things that happened in 2020, this year is about rising up once again. It is about picking up the broken pieces of our lives and laying them once again before God so he can put it back together, but this time a better version of ourselves.… Read More

Sitting Beside The Master

by Gilian, in category Journal, Thoughts, Words

When the pandemic started, schools had to adjust to different set-ups for classroom. Some still cater face-to-face for those students whose parents are both working, and others who choose to stay at home can attend virtually. For our sons, we chose the virtual classes. My youngest son is 3 and is turning 4 tomorrow. I… Read More
