For this reason, I have always been determined to fight for my peace because I knew my sanity and overall well- being depended on it. This became even more important and intentional after I got married. You see. IContinue reading “Protect Your Peace”

Hope
Over the past three years, I have reflected on my decision to leave the classroom often and have no regrets.

IContinue reading “Hope”
The Great Comforter
Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Grief can be a tricky thing. It’s unpredictable and comes in waves.

Believe For It
For the past 3 years, I’ve been in a time of waiting. At times, I’ve become anxious because of the uncertainty. However, God has constantly reminded me of His promises and plans for my life.

Release It!
My husband and I have always had the most interesting conversations. It is a mix of thought sharing, production, and revelation. It’s like what I am saying pulls things from him and him from me. Every time we end a conversation, I’m always left feeling empowered and challenged at the same time. I know thatContinue reading “Release It!”

A Prayer for Teachers
Dear Lord, We thank you for those whom you have called to teach our children. We thank you for strategically placing them in the classroom to help shape and mold our children as they prepare to live out their divine purposes.

Peace in the Noise
Over the past few weeks, I have been enjoying vacationing with my family. I have taken in the beauty that unfolds with changing landscapes and temperatures. I have experienced everything from the bright sunshine of Florida to the mountains of AZ and Vegas. I have viewed them on land and from the air. Either way,Continue reading “Peace in the Noise”
