I’ve been sitting with this thought all week: Do I really reflect the image of Christ, or do I just say I do? It’s easy to wear the title “Christian” and go through the motions, church on Sunday, a verse here and there, a kind word, a reposted Bible quote. But when I look intoContinueContinue reading “Open the Eyes of My Heart”

Want to Know? Just Ask
There’s something comforting about knowing that we don’t have to have all the answers. In fact, God never expected us to. Life will always bring questions…big ones, small ones, heavy ones. “Should I take this opportunity? How do I handle this situation? Am I in the right place? What is God calling me to doContinueContinue reading “Want to Know? Just Ask”
You Are Still the One for the Work: God Still Has Need for You
Have you ever sat in silence, reflecting on your life and whispering to yourself, “Maybe I missed it… Maybe I messed up too badly this time…”? If you have, you’re not alone. I’ve been there. In fact, more times than I’d like to admit. Moments where I let fear speak louder than faith. Days whenContinueContinue reading “You Are Still the One for the Work: God Still Has Need for You”
What Are You Doing With What You’ve Been Given?
One of the most sobering and motivating parables Jesus shared was the story of the servants and the talents in Matthew 25:14–30. If you’ve read it before, you know it’s not just about money. It’s about stewardship, purpose, accountability, and what we do with what God has entrusted to us. In the parable, a masterContinueContinue reading “What Are You Doing With What You’ve Been Given?”
Freedom Looks Different When You’re Free in Christ
As we celebrate Juneteenth, the day the last enslaved people in the United States finally received word of their freedom, I can’t help but reflect on the layered reality of what freedom truly means. As a Black woman in this world, I know all too well that freedom isn’t always experienced equally. The truth is,ContinueContinue reading “Freedom Looks Different When You’re Free in Christ”
The Blessing of Obedience
There’s a kind of peace you can’t find until you’ve fully said yes to God. Not a partial yes. Not a yes if He shows you the full plan. But a complete, surrendering, heart-willing yes. Seven years ago, I walked away from a career I had built with stability, security, and predictability, teaching. I hadContinueContinue reading “The Blessing of Obedience”
“Do This In Remembrance of Me”
Every time I hear the words “Do this in remembrance of Me,” my mind goes to communion—the bread, the cup, the cross. That sacred moment of reflection that reminds us of Christ’s sacrifice. But lately, God’s been stirring something deeper in my spirit. What if that invitation wasn’t just for the table? What if itContinueContinue reading ““Do This In Remembrance of Me””
“Watch the Little Things: The Small Foxes That Spoil the Vine”
Song of Solomon 2:15 (KJV)”Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.” Have you ever had a moment where everything seemed to be going well, your plans were laid out, your heart was in the right place, intentions were pure but somehow, things slowly started toContinueContinue reading ““Watch the Little Things: The Small Foxes That Spoil the Vine””
