Inflation Pies
My favourite kind of takeout food costs three times more than what it was twenty years ago. This price increase is called inflation!

There is nothing like feeling a deep sense of certitude that we are where we are supposed to be. I believe it is engrained in the human heart, to live a particular calling and mission with its various adventures. It comes down to this: God wants us to be alive and to thrive.
How can we invite Mary more intentionally into our lives this month? This could be a good question to ponder: for she wants us to be close to God and to her son Jesus. She wants us to discover God’s wonderful plan for our lives and for our summer. And she wants us to experience the peace and joy that comes from living in union with God.
We got married during the pandemic and trucker convoy. We share about our preparation and wedding day experience!
Leadership is about growth. We are a work in progress. We never fully arrive at developing our character. One way we can be intentional with our development would be to construct a personal growth plan.
In every area of life, the law of growth is at stake. This means that life is geared towards growing. Yes, this law does have its limitations: growth itself has an expansion, peak, and eventual decline. Yet this law protects nature from falling into an abyss of greater misery and sorrow. There is more to growth, more to life.

Even during the present holiday cheer we can find ourselves troubled. It could be from pain that comes from losing a loved one, family dynamics that are really trying and tough, or the current pandemic. I do not have to go lengths at writing about this and would not like to depress you. For we already know what the world is capable of—sadness, despair, and a valley of tears. This piece is meant to uplift you, for it is in sadness that there we find our joy, quoting a poem from Khalil Jibran.
