We have all felt the pain of broken relationships. Such moments have been some of the least enjoyable times of my life but they have been some of the most powerful. It has been during these times that I have been reminded of the ever-present love and comfort of God. I have experienced His faithfulness.ContinueContinue reading “The God Who Stays”

Step by Step
I’m so far behind. I turn 30 this year and let me tell you, I won’t be making any “30 under 30” lists. Many of you can quickly see how unhelpful lists like that are. However, I did live my late teens and early twenties with a sense of big dreams and big ambitions justContinueContinue reading “Step by Step”
Rest for Your R.E.S.E.T.
As I think about R.E.S.E.T…REST has been heavily on my mind. I was exhausted at the beginning of the school year because I’m an educator. Preparing the classroom, professional developments, lesson planning, adjusting, and getting to know my students had me ready for at least one day off! LOL. I was looking forward to beingContinueContinue reading “Rest for Your R.E.S.E.T.”
Worthy
I haven’t always felt that I deserved the best of things. In a strange way, I felt it was being haughty or selfish to expect the best of everything. Life’s journey had whispered and told me I should just be grateful for what I did have. The truth is I wasn’t living my “best life”ContinueContinue reading “Worthy”

Eventually, I had to get it together.ContinueContinue reading “A Pitier or A Praiser: Which One Are You?”
Dirty Feet
“So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, and poured water into a basin. Then, he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him…After washing their feet, he put on his robe again and sat down and asked, “DoContinueContinue reading “Dirty Feet”
Bloom
What is a bird who can’t spread its wings and fly? Or a man who lies down in defeat and just wants to die. What becomes of an eagle that never gets to soar? Or what about a lion in the jungle who is afraid to roar? What sense does it make to be pregnantContinueContinue reading “Bloom”
Awakened
There once was a sister, Who found herself a mister. And you’d think she’d found a pot of gold. But some how she got it twisted, Or she just altogether missed it, Because she had to give up her soul. Unhealthy patterns started, And she left herself unguarded, Then, she became consumed by lies. DistantContinueContinue reading “Awakened”
Fear or Faith
“The Bible says that God “has not given us the spirit of fear (2 Timothy 1:7). Fear is not from God; it is the devil’s tool to keep people from enjoying their lives and making progress”. Fear causes a person to run, retreat, or shrink back. The Bible says in Hebrews 10:38 that we areContinueContinue reading “Fear or Faith”
