My Darling Daughter, Youths are impatient and eager to grow up fast. They crave independence and can’t wait to get to that age when they can start living by their set of rules.

However, three years ago, I began to notice a change in his behaviour towards me; he was being a bit distant from me and did not pay me much attention as he used to. I thought this was as a result of pressure from his work and that it would be a passing phase, but I was wrong; it went from bad to worse. He takes care of his children…

HEBREWS 10:19-25; PSALM 24; MARK 4:21-25. Reading 1 Heb 10:19-25 Brothers and sisters: Since through the Blood of Jesus we have confidence of entrance into the sanctuary by the new and living way, he opened for us through the veil, that is, his flesh, and since we have “a great priest over the house of God,” let us approach with a sincere heart and in absolute trust, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed in pure water. Let us hold unwaveringly to our confession that gives us hope, for he who made the promise is trustworthy. We…
Watching the fireworks as it blasters tonight, Comes with lots of memories. Memories of the good, the bad and the ugly. Memories of lost love, lost hope and lost happiness.

…Continued from last week. “Are you asking me out?” “Yes. We could go to the mall right after I see my friend.” “Do you mean like a date or something?” he asked a little disconnected from my enthusiasm “Are you not interested?” noticing his lack of excitement. “I just don’t think that wouldn’t be a good idea for now. I felt a sudden rush of heat down my spine. The sound of those words shattered my confidence. Was I too forward to have asked? I was embarrassed. “Do you have a girlfriend?” I continued. “No I don’t,” he replied “So…
