• Unlikely Provision

    My technician and I still laugh about it today. The timing was crazy! We were short handed and she needed the upcoming Saturday off. All week long, I tried. I reached out to our team, but no one could cover her shift…and we still had no solid leads with the technician job posting that had […]

  • Potato Marykutty

    In Titus 2:5, Paul encourages older women (that’s me ) to teach younger women (that might be you) how to ‘stay busy’ or as some translations put it, ‘maintain a home’…and girls, part of maintaining a home might involve a little cooking.  But don’t worry…the recipes I post are always simple & do-able.  Today, we […]

  • In the Zone

    My husband has this playlist. And every Sunday morning (like clockwork) we listen to the same set of songs as we get ready for church.  A couple of Malayalam worship songs (that’s his native language) and a three minute mini sermon titled “That’s my King.”  He says it gets him in the Sunday morning worship […]

  • Binu’s Easy Chicken Biryani (with a Hack)

    My son will be home from his first year of college at the end of this week, Yay!!?…which means I’ll be making all of his favorite dishes over summer break. Fettuccine Alfredo, Chinese stir fry, South Indian beef fry, chicken curry… But today (since he’s not home just yet),  I decided to make one of […]

  • Talkin to Jesus

    It was 6am Saturday morning, and my younger son had an all day track meet. He ate a quick breakfast, and threw a few Gatorades and a couple of Cliff bars into a bag. But before walking out the door, he walked into our guest bedroom.  My in-laws were in town for the weekend and […]

  • The Chapel

    When I was a freshman in college, my friend and I discovered a little chapel on campus. It was a beautiful glass building with wooden pews, red carpet and a piano to the side of the stage. It even had this particular smell.  After exams, that chapel was our haven-a little getaway before we started […]

  • It was just so Strange

    It was the strangest thing.  The year was 1999. I had just gotten married, moved across town & I was in search of a new job, closer to my new apartment.  I made some calls and sent out my resume. After some time, I received a call back from a district pharmacy manager. He was […]

  • Staying Committed

    I went up for every altar call, called every 1-800 prayer line, I fasted, I prayed.  I needed a breakthrough.  It’s funny how committed I can be when I’m desperately in need of God to act on my behalf.  And then there are times when life is good and I can barely make it to […]

  • Your Struggle

    Your struggle is not against flesh and blood. Yes, I’m talking to you.  If it weighs you down. If it causes anxiety in your heart. If you’re losing sleep over it.  It’s not about flesh & blood.  If it causes division. If it’s tearing apart your church, your family or you.  It’s not about flesh […]

  • Kerala Beef Fry

    In Titus 2:5, Paul encourages older women (that’s me) to teach younger women (that might be you) how to ‘stay busy’ or, as some translations put it, ‘maintain a home’…and girls, part of maintaining a home might involve a little cooking. So, if you are looking for an easy South Indian beef curry/ beef fry […]
