Faith & Newness in Christ

One of the biggest gifts in my life is knowing how much deeper a person could be in their relationship with God. I personally grew up in a Christian home. Hence, religious activities such as going to church was like a must-do thing for me. I also grew up seeing my parents contributing to activities, events, or projects related to the church. Soon enough, it has become a big part of my identity.

And then I was transported into a car, I looked outside through the glass window and I witnessed a rather unusual scene. The road was cracked, forming a wave-like surface and I still saw some cars moving. It looked so disastrous and immediately I was thinking ‘...

Hi there, thank you for clicking on my blog! I would like to share to you some apps and readings that have shaped my faith and how all of them worked together to build my love for God’s Word. I am giving you my thoughts on them and probably some personal story of faith journey into some of the reviews.   Abide Meditations – Free version available with Premium features.   Abide is the first Christian meditation app that I downloaded in my phone and I have been using it for almost a year. I don’t honestly remember the very first experience in particular listening to this app, but their meditation have helped me put my daily experiences/ struggles into Biblical perspective. They take a couple of short verses from Scriptures along with some devotionals. I like how the verses are repeated in different English translations in the meditation to let it sink better and give us quiet time to think. The narrator also help the listener to pray as they go over the verses. With the...
