Hey everyone, if you have been following my musings on which book of the bible, I was dwelling on to study next, I am excited to say that I will be digging into the book of James. The book of James is an intensely practical one, focusing on the application of our faith in the... Continue Reading →
Sacrifice of Praise
Today I breakdown Hebrews 13:15. This verse encourages us to praise God continually. Through scripture especially the Psalms we see verses that calls for us to praise the Lord through all circumstances. Psalm 113:3 “From the rising of the sun to its setting. The name of the Lord is to be praised.” Psalm 34:1 “I... Continue Reading →
Be with God
I share with you all a snippet of my faith journey this past couple of weeks. I have been seeking the Lord to lead me to a book of the Bible to study next. Regarding my Bible reading plan for the year, it consists of both structure and a lack of it too. And by... Continue Reading →

Honey Garlic Soy Salmon
Bursting with flavour is how I would describe this recipe. A beautiful balance of spiciness and sweetness with the rich sharp flavour of garlic and soy comes together to create a beautiful and balanced blend of flavours.
