As a teenager, in the midst of my struggles for a pure walk, I would stay awake to watch the show called “Midnight Hot” on one of the channels of Cable TV. I only wanted to see the scantily clothed figures on screen. I stayed awake to watch! Fleshly desires kept me awake. I mean- I waited for that hour […]
My Mum once shared a story: When I was still a toddler, my brother was pushing me around in a baby pram. An accident happened. The baby pram stumbled. I rolled out. I fell. I shrieked and went quiet. She was in shock. She carried me to the bathroom and poured water on me. I jerked to life. She administered […]
Just after midnight, I was just settling down to spend some time in prayers and study the Word when I heard the shuffling of tiny feet and an attempt to open a door.

When we were to have our first test, some of my colleagues panicked. I did also. I had to choose between fellowship or studying for […]
Some time ago, I sat in the library as I spoke to a dear brother in the faith. I told him, “The whole matter concludes that ‘I am fighting a generational war that I must win’”. It was not a battle with demons or the devil. It was a battle for strength and inner will to stay on course in […]
