Prayer of the Day: Ash Wednesday

Posted on 23 February, 201223 February, 2012 by Sivin Kit

O Lord, protect us in our struggle against evil. As we begin the Lenten journey, make this season holy by our self-denial.

Posted on 20 October, 201020 October, 2010 by Sivin Kit

I’ve found a new kick in blogging. I used to do some regular links from The Micah Mandate. So a decent return is nice. The media, violence and partnership 20 October 2010 | By Vinoth Ramachandra Recently we saw a pitiful demonstration of the power of the Internet, coupled with the way global media corporations…

God In Charge

Posted on 20 October, 201020 October, 2010 by Sivin Kit

HUMILITY, a word related to humus, which means “the earth,” is the notion of being grounded in the reality of who one is before God; it is God who is in charge of our lives — not the other way around. – Daniel Wolpert Creating a Life with God ~ God In Charge Just when…

Raising the Heart and Mind to God

Posted on 9 October, 2010 by Sivin Kit

If I have ever neglected Sacred Space and make a return, I’m always delighted by a needed surprise. Today it is the following: The catechism definition of prayer is useful: the raising of the heart and mind to God. Not that we need a definition. Prayer is something we do in our own way. We…

Random Thoughts in the midst of Bible Study in Sibu

Posted on 22 June, 201022 June, 2010 by Sivin Kit

The nice thing about being in a conference is the rhythm of a schedule.  I don’t need to worry what is going to happen next. The conversations during the meal times are usually unexpected and interesting. So far, I found myself engaged in topics such as young adults today, the ups and downs of secondary…

The Empty Self

Posted on 17 June, 201017 June, 2010 by Sivin Kit

A Pool of Tears

Posted on 22 July, 200913 February, 2010 by Sivin Kit

EACH TIME I SPEAK or teach or gather together in some other way with folk from our local congregation, I am aware that each one of us sits next to a pool of tears. Each one of us carries in our hearts personal wounds as well as the wounds of the nation. Each one of…

A Good Day

Posted on 19 July, 2009 by Sivin Kit

With so much disturbing news these days, is it too much to pray for at least one good day? And then savor it fully. One for the evening, and for the week ahead.

Instruction Manual for Life [cc]

Posted on 28 May, 2009 by Sivin Kit

The whole 8 minutes is worth every second. Jonathan Brink‘s words below kind of lead me there: "Perhaps we will find ourselves drawn to the author who believes in us enough to leave so many pages blank (HT: Aaron Loy )

Praying for the Enemy

Posted on 17 May, 200917 May, 2009 by Sivin Kit

BECAUSE GOD INTENDS OUR ENEMIES TO BE OUR ALLIES and friends someday, Jesus insists that we pray for them. Such universalism is a challenge to any age. People find it far easier to write off individuals, even whole groups, as evil than to maintain a sense that we’re all in this together and need to…
