I Am Beautifully Made

https://youtu.be/80s7evMjReI This weekend was as busy as every other weekend but I had a few hours of uninterrupted time. It was during that time that I came across this song.

Thankful, Grateful & Truly Blessed

On the 27th, I posted: We can focus on what we don't have or we can focus on what we do have. Life may not look the way we want, but we should love ourselves and appreciate the fact that we have been given one more day to get it together...one more day to make … Continue reading Thankful, Grateful & Truly Blessed →

The Law of Sacrifice

Today, I received a great reminder about the law of sacrifice while going over a John Maxwell book study with my team. In life, I will have to give up some things, places and people.

God’s Plans

Coming off of a turbulent weekend, I found myself in deep thought multiple times today. I had to pull myself from this deep sadness and I didn't know why.

Divine Discomfort, Pt. 2

When I wrote the 1st blog about Divine Discomfort, I didn't realize that it was only the beginning of my discomfort. Lately, I have been under attack: my name and my character.

Love: Say it, show it, cherish it ❤

The sermon: Tonight, I listened to a sermon on love and what it means. Condensed version: When you truly love the Lord and love others, you give your all. You give them so much more than bare minimum. You give your very best. You love at your maximum capacity.

Love is…

Love is a word that tends to be overused and misused today. People can barely know one another, meaning within 1 hour of meeting or texting, and claim that they love each other. People will talk about one another behind their backs yet will quickly tell the same person they talked about that they love … Continue reading Love is… →

Late In the Midnight Hour…

As the new year approached, I committed to growing deeper in my relationship with God; making stronger connections with fellow believers; sharing more and encouraging more; sharing my testimony; and believing deep down in my soul that greater is here. I will honestly tell you that trials & tribulations caused me to shy away at … Continue reading Late In the Midnight Hour… →
