How Do You Actually Let Go of Your Worries?

Last updated on: October 23, 2026 at 2:09 pm By Jocelyn Soriano

Have you ever felt so worried you couldn’t even sleep? Worry doesn’t always look like a panic attack. Sometimes, it finds its way to us through overthinking or being unable to let go of a certain thought. What if this or that happens? What if something goes wrong with my job? What if my children meet bad influences at school? What if my insurance can’t cover my medical expenses? Even Christians can struggle with worries and “what ifs”. Even though... Read more

What Was the Sin of Judas?

Last updated on: October 21, 2026 at 11:21 am By Jocelyn Soriano

Whenever people talk about betrayal, the name of Judas can’t help but come to mind. After all, who could ever forget that terrible act of betraying Jesus with a kiss? He may not have been the one who ordered His crucifixion. And he may not have been the one who scourged him, crowned him with thorns or nailed him to the cross. But it was through his betrayal that Jesus was handed over to all of those who wanted to... Read more

6 Ways To Prevent Resentment From Breaking Our Relationships

Last updated on: October 13, 2026 at 12:47 pm By Jocelyn Soriano

Resentment is like rust that gradually destroys our relationships. And one day, the smallest fault can be the final trigger to break it apart. Some sudden explosions of anger happen this way. They don’t seem proportionate to the harm done. But it is the product of many years of resentment. With resentment, we find it more difficult to forgive. It colors every fault with perceived malice. It makes us doubt even one’s good actions. How do we prevent resentment from... Read more

When It Is Okay To Judge People

Last updated on: September 17, 2026 at 9:38 am By Jocelyn Soriano

Is it okay for us to judge other people? What does the Bible say about judging others? While most of us may have been familiar with Bible verses urging us not to judge others, we may have also asked questions like: “But what if some people are doing something really bad?” “Is it fair just to leave others alone instead of correcting them?” “Some things just don’t feel right deep inside.” If we stopped judging others in all situations, lawlessness...

Is Forgiveness Unfair? Why Gratitude May Be the Key

Last updated on: September 17, 2026 at 9:41 am By Jocelyn Soriano

Have you ever felt as though forgiving someone is unfair? After all you’ve been through, should you just let it go? What about that voice telling you that you didn’t deserve what happened? Forgiveness sometimes feels like that. There are days when the pain comes back and you feel as though you’re starting over again. There are also times when it would take all the effort you could muster to surrender it all to God. What Does The Bible Say... Read more

Why the Quantity of Our Prayers Matters

Last updated on: August 17, 2026 at 11:41 am By Jocelyn Soriano

We may have heard some people say that when it comes to prayer, quality is more important than quantity. After all, it is the sincerity of our hearts that counts at the end of the day. Why pray frequently when you pray absentmindedly? In a way, these sayings point to something real. We should never exchange sincere, heartfelt prayers for frequent yet empty prayers. But what if we could pray wholeheartedly more often? Could there also be something powerful about... Read more

Why We Need The Silence In Between

Last updated on: September 10, 2026 at 10:19 am By Jocelyn Soriano

I am writing this on a rainy day when I can’t seem to force myself to do what I planned to do. Although I’m feeling a bit guilty about it, I can sense that I would also feel a little guilty if I simply let the day pass by the way it always did. There is something about today’s rainy weather that invites me to pause, to rest, to simply bask in the silence of it all. Of course it... Read more

What Happens To a World Without Truth?

Last updated on: August 17, 2026 at 11:47 am By Jocelyn Soriano

You may have heard someone say, “Leave me alone. Don’t impose your truth on me.” In today’s relativistic world, subjective truth is gradually becoming the norm. “I have my truth and you have yours,” some people say. But what does it mean? Why call it truth at all when it can change depending on our whims and desires? Isn’t truth a reality we must all share and live in? What happens when the truth can no longer be found? 1....
