Something was missing. As they say in Hebrew, I hadn’t find TRUE shalom. Shalom means completeness, wholeness, health, peace, welfare, safety soundness, tranquility, prosperity, perfectness, fullness, rest, harmony, the absence of agitation or discord according to Strong’s Concordance 7965.

Is your past holding you back from your future?

We live in a noisy world, don’t we? Everywhere we go, we hear people and things making noise.

With tons of information coming at us from relationships and multiple media streams (television, Internet and social media), many of us live our lives constantly distracted and caught up with thoughts and in fact have trained our brains to look for distractions.

Imagine if you had absolutely no fear.

Imagine if you had no fear to pursue the goals and dreams that God put in your heart.

Imagine if you had no fear to pursue your purpose in life.

Last week marked a significant milestone on my journey in the United States.

I officially became a United States Citizen. And it felt really good to start this new chapter of my life with 3146 other New American Citizens who were representing over 140 countries.

If you have been trying to move to the US on your own, you know by now that it’s not easy. It’s can be very challenging.

But I can guarantee that it’s possible to make it in the United States, live our dreams and bring meaning into our lives. I have lived through all phases myself.

I wanted to make a positive difference in the lives of others — more importantly, I was searching the meaning of my own life. The last 10 years have been exhilarating, challenging, rewarding and enlightening. I have changed…and I believe for the better.
