Bringing resonance to your faith

By skarafanda | Apr 10, 2023

A Resounding Faith   I don’t use all the keys on my piano each time I play it. Some of the notes are too low or too high to be overplayed. The ear can only handle so much of the extremes in variance before it exhausts its listening capacity.   But that doesn’t make the extremes less important. It simply means they need to be used in moderation in order to make…

Moving from repentance to being one with God

By skarafanda | Apr 2, 2023

Repentance and Penitence Repent: Sincere regret or remorse. Penitence: the action of feeling or showing sorrow and regret for having done wrong.   We often think about repententing of our sins. Something we did that turned us away from God. But sometimes we can repent because we never truly understood how we missed the mark. Our world is so divinely complex that we cannot know all the answers. We don’t know how…

Living like ghosts

By skarafanda | Mar 14, 2023

Remember when… Remember when we used to talk on the phone so long that our neck hurt? When we spent hours talking to our best friend or crush?

Can we talk about it?

By skarafanda | Mar 9, 2023

Can we talk about it? We should talk about it. We probably haven’t talked about it before. We probably thought it was taboo. We don’t talk about things like that. We might offend someone if we talk about it. We might make someone angry if we talk about it. We might get angry if we talk about it. We definitely can’t talk about it without getting angry. We might lose a friend…
