Disturbing Incident Experienced By Nemi At His School

Nemi doing her homework 

Last night, during dinner, my son Nemi was in tears, expressing his unwillingness to go to school. Concerned, we immediately probed the reason behind his distress. To our shock, he revealed that one of his teachers had not only shouted at him but had also resorted to physical aggression, hitting him twice with her hand. The first blow struck his back, and the second landed on his lap.

Naturally, we sought an explanation for such unacceptable behavior from the teacher. Nemi explained that he couldn't finish rewriting Thai letter activities in his book within the allotted time. Although he had diligently worked on the task and was close to completion, he couldn't keep up with the pace. The news filled me with anger, and I felt an intense rush of heat in my head. No teacher should ever treat our son or any student in such a manner.

The Keys Of The Kingdom Of Heaven

I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. — Matthew 16:19

This reflection came to me while I was heating my coffee and gazing at the sun emerging from the hills.

We don't have to live defeated lives enslaved to fear. We have been given the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven—resources, protection, and power—to unlock whatever is held captive or withheld by the devil.

In our house, we possess keys for our main door and rooms. Without these keys, we cannot enter our house or rooms. These keys are known only to our family and not to anyone else. Just as my family can't enter our house whenever they want unless they have the key, because we are family, their authority to come and go is based on their relationship with their parents. This is also how the Kingdom operates. Our Father in Heaven has entrusted us with keys and given us authority to release His power here on earth, to bless and bring life wherever He has placed us.

Parenting: I Am Afraid Of Going To School

By Ianpassion

Nowadays our eldest child is acting indifferently towards her schooling. She behaves somehow opposite from last year that seems she enjoyed learning.

During school days (Monday to Friday), just this past few days every morning, after taking her meal, while wearing her uniform, and when she knows she is heading to school,  then she starts crying heavily. She does not want to go.

Relativism: Is There Really An Absolute Truth?

By Ianpassion 

We are now in a society that if we are not careful enough we will be swayed away. 


A relativist says that what is true to you can be false to me and what is true to me can be false to you. This happens when the sole basis of our values is omitted, the absolute truth is replaced with reasons, and respect to multiculturalism and diversity at the expense of compromise and apostasy. 

Fears Took Over My Life

My life changed when I encountered the Father’s love. I was like the eldest son in a parable of the prodigal son (Luke 15:11-32). What I understood work is the benchmark for approval. 


I used to believe that if I work very hard and go to bed late then the Father would love me. I thought I would be accepted if I performed well and produced impressive results.
