Upgrade your plan
From time to time, I’ll receive a text message from my phone service provider, offering me the ability to upgrade my phone plan. I always decline, because there’s nothing appealing or interesting about it, let alone beneficial. Because I’ve been such a loyal customer and always pay on time, I assume they are doing whatever…

Positioned for the position
Sometimes it’s best not to gripe and complain about our situation, because more times than often, God is using that position to get us ready for the next one. I work in higher education and have done so for the past 13+ years. Loving what I do is a complete understatement, as I’ve never been…

I saw it
When God commissioned me to write my latest book, Surviving the wait: How I learned to be still and wait on God, I understood the assignment, I just didn’t know why it was given to me. As I struggled for months to relive what I had been through and am presently facing, I often questioned…

Better than the former
Where you once lacked, God is about to bless you abundantly. Everything that you’ve lost, was taken from you, or withheld from you, God is going to give it back, plus so much more! I’m pretty sure you may feel what you’re up against contradicts everything I’ve said, but don’t believe the lies. What’s coming…

The End
This year has undeniably been the worst year of my life! Every emotion across the spectrum, I’ve experienced, with most of them being on the bad end. Hit after hit, I’ve taken nothing but losses, and came very close to losing my mind. There were days I didn’t know if I wanted to live or…

Give it to God
I can remember looking through some photos on Instagram, when I cam across an image of God and a little girl, holding onto an old, torn, stuffed teddy bear. She loved the bear and wanted to hold onto it, because she had it for so long, and couldn’t dare part with it. Meanwhile, God was…

Grace taught me
I don’t get mad, nor do I get even. Instead of allowing things to fester, and worry about how to “get back”, I just sit back and watch as things unfolds. Grace taught me that! As I continue to grow, I now understand that everything nor everyone, deserves a rebuttal, let alone response. It doesn’t…

I was used
I’ve gone through a lot, but I did it all for you. I didn’t intentionally mean for things to happen as they have, because if the decision was mine, it would’ve never been made. Excuse me if I sound bitter, but I was used to make things a little bit sweeter for you. Do you…

A better place
June 13, 2021, was one of the worst days of my life! My mother called and informed me that my father had passed. Although I was extremely sad, I wasn’t the least bit surprised, because 2 years prior, God had informed and prepped me that his time was coming to an end. The day before…

Created for better
Have you ever sat and said to yourself, “I shouldn’t be doing this?” Perhaps it’s just me, but I’ve always had the feeling there’s so much more to me than what I am, and whatever it is, I should be doing. I’m not quite sure what though, but for quite some time now, I’ve felt…
