There are days when I sit quietly with my coffee, thinking about how much energy we pour into picturing God and Jesus in our minds. As someone who has walked this faith journey for years, I’ve come to a peaceful realization: maybe it’s better that the Bible stays silent on the exact
Have you ever wondered why the Bible says nothing about how tall Adam and Eve actually were? In a world obsessed with measurements, appearances, and records, the complete silence on their physical height feels intentional. Instead of giving us numbers or descriptions of their stature, the text focuses sharply on their creation in God’s image, their purpose to steward the earth, and the choices that shaped humanity. This silence is not an oversight. It is an invitation to look deeper.
Habang naglalakad ako nang tahimik sa Park dito sa Bangkok, napansin ko ang isang simpleng bulaklak na unti-unting bumubukas. Walang ingay, walang drama, pero may tahimik na ritmo ng paglago na parang may nakatagong dasal sa bawat petal.

There are mornings when the world feels too heavy, and yet, stepping outside into the quiet embrace of nature suddenly softens everything. I remember one such dawn last year, dew still clinging to the leaves, birds singing their first notes, and a gentle breeze whispering through the trees. In that moment, a quiet realization settled in my heart: being at peace with God and nature isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about resting in the truth that He is in control. Divine Wisdom gently reminds us that we cannot fathom the full scope of what God has planned, and that His will, not ours, will ultimately be done. This isn’t resignation; it’s liberation.
