Trisha Sales is a 30-something full-time IT consultant, wife & mom. She self-published a collection of poetry, Heartstrung, back in 2014. She became a Christian at the beginning of 2016 and is now writing about Jesus and the love of God. When she is not developing or writing code, she whiles away admiring art and literature. In other crevices of the internet, she is also now known as Mrs. Bel.
My husband and I decided to follow The Bible Project’s Read Scripture reading plan that goes through Genesis to Revelations in a year. We started this month of November and are already reading through Exodus. Revisiting these Old Testament books (Genesis and Exodus so far) has been refreshing to say the least and we both are taking note of observations or reflections that we didn’t seem to have had when we read these books before.
I played the role of an exotic dancer back in high school.
We were in our senior year and one of our major requirements for our Music class that year was to do a small musical production. The heads of the class gathered and they turned to me and said, “You’re going to be Mimi from Rent.”
How is it that in the Presence of God, there is fullness of joy? Because in His Presence, there is light. And Jesus is the “true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world” (John 1:8) “The Light shines on in the darkness and the darkness did not understand it or overpower it or appropriate it or absorb it [and is unreceptive to it].” (John 1:5, AMP)
The world that we live in today is so far from what God had created in the beginning. It is heartbreaking to see the stark contrast of how the Garden of Eden was painted in the account in Genesis to all of a sudden having natural disasters, war-torn countries, and hearing the cry of the oppressed and victims of injustice.

I’ve been bogged down with work ever since most of the states started imposing stay-at-home orders to slow the spread of COVID-19, mostly because I have gotten involved in a project that built a contact tracing app for one state. Because of the immediate need, […]
