Rest your sole
Last week was one of the busiest weeks I’ve had in a long time and in the process of me making sure that everything was in order and everyone was taken care of, I neglected myself. I found myself going to bed past midnight most nights, not getting enough sleep, having groggy mornings, missing meals,…

Empowered to Empower
Yesterday, during one of my many talks with momma, I told her how the things I’ve longed prayed for are coming to pass. I’ve always been a huge encourager and have loved and embraced this position wholeheartedly. One of my dreams is to attend a women’s conference or symposium of sort, where I got the…

Outgrown
Last week, I had the pleasure of flying to Texas for a work-related event. I was so excited to finally visit the state I’ve felt God has called me to move to (just not yet). Nonetheless, as I went through the TSA preliminaries and boarded my plane, I was all too happy to be seated…

Thank You
As I was in prayer this morning, I felt a huge sense of gratitude and praise. Not just to God and Jesus, but to the many others who’ve helped me as I went through some of the biggest storms I’d encountered. During the times I didn’t know how I was going to make it, they…

Don’t stop talking!
“I guess you’re supposed to be holier than thou, now, because all you seem to do is talk about God,” is a statement I’m often met with. “No, I’m not, but now that I have your attention, I’ll never stop talking about Him,” is usually my response. I’ve mentioned this before, but it needs to…

Get up!
Talitha Cumi (meaning get up) are the words God spoke to the asleep little girl. But as the people would have it, they all laughed at Him because they presumed, she was d**d and didn’t think He could bring her back to life. Does that sound like you? Many people have written you off because…

Only if you let them
I have a pretty positive attitude and have been very jovial these last few weeks. Just about all of my days have been sunny and on the days it didn’t shine as much, I trusted the days ahead would be better. Prior to God changing the trajectory of my life, attitude, and character, I used…

Backpedaling
When my sisters and I were kids and had the opportunity to ride a bike, I can remember how we used to backpedal, which sent the bike into a backwards motion. Although it was a little difficult to do, it was fun in the moment. As I was preparing this post, I had one thing…

Peaceful Goodbyes
Everything or person, I’ve had to say goodbye to, was not as hard as I’d imagined. In fact, I’ve had some of the most peaceful endings, because I knew I was on the brink of new and wonderful beginnings. Yet I also knew that cutting those unfruitful ties were long overdue. It didn’t matter if…

Standing Alone
It’s not easy being the lone ranger in town, but my days of desperately seeking validation and acceptance are over. I don’t need to follow the masses or go with the flow to fit in, when I was called to stand out. It doesn’t matter if the majority is going one way or the other,…
