Don’t stand a chance
When I was younger and in middle school, certain individuals would bully me because I was overweight, dark, extremely poor and looked the part. It did not matter my intelligence or friendliness; all they saw was no brands and no money. Although I was constantly ostracized, it was always verbal and not physical. They knew […]

Unanswered Prayers
On yesterday, I proposed a question; “Is God deliberately not answering my prayers?” I’m sure you too have asked yourself the same and the response is yes. Often times, God deliberately won’t answer our prayers for several reasons: What you’re asking for is not of God’s will. It doesn’t matter how good you think it […]

Ask yourself
Have you ever thought to yourself “Why am I doing this?” Or did you just do it without thinking? Do you give thought to why certain events occur and you end up in them? Maybe you can’t understand why you’re met with such opposition, and others aren’t. Perhaps you’re struggling to stay afloat, while so […]

Double Portion
I’m a person that enjoys food, particularly meal sampling, and if it’s something my palate has taken complete interest in, I want more of it. In fact, I want a double portion of everything. It’s not long before I realize I’ve bitten off more than I can chew (no pun intended). Because of my poor […]

Time’s Up
Today marks my 6-month anniversary at my new job and the end of my new employee probationary status. I’ll be honest, I anxiously counted down to this day because God is about to really go to work in my life. I know you’re probably saying, “God didn’t have to wait for anything because He can […]

Next Stop
I’m no stranger to public transportation and with the constant price gauging of gas, I’m strongly considering going back. As a kid, I remember riding the city line bus to just about every place my family and I needed to go. I can still hear the chain rustling as I dropped it in the meter, […]

Everything’s New
This is a new month so I’m expecting everything to be new! New blessings! New opportunities! New deals! New relationships! New Note takers! New doors! New money! Re(new)ed mind! I ask for big, because I’ve been proven to handle little. To whom much is given, much is required. And right now, I’m requiring God to […]

Looks deceiving
You see mounds of debt, but what you don’t see is God working behind the scenes to wipe it away. You see danger and adversity, but what you don’t see is God fighting them both on your behalf. You see a way out of no way, but what you don’t see is God is the […]

Snakes in the garden
God sees what you’ve planted and pretty soon, He’s going to allow you to reap the harvest. When you do, be sure to look out for the snakes in the garden. The enemy not only watched you sow your seeds, but he knows the size of your harvest and doesn’t want you to have it. […]

God is Something
“I was about to board my flight, but something told me to get off.” “I was inches away from being in a bad car accident, but something caused me to swerve.” “I once dated a guy who I thought was the one, but something told me to let him go.” “I was about to sign […]
