James 4:13-17. It's always good to start your Friday off by having your toes stepped on. Our life is just like a fog in the grand scheme of things. We have such a brief amount of time to make a difference for Christ before we fade away. "We know what we ought to do" but… Continue reading Friday’s Thoughts

Practice Ephesians 4:2
Over the last week, I have written and deleted several posts. I had so much on my heart yet I couldn't find the right words with which to say them. I have been and am frustrated over the political climate in our country. I am over the moon in love with my niece, nephew, and… Continue reading Practice Ephesians 4:2
Happy New Year!
Well, it's 2017! Can you believe it?! 2016 seemed to fly by. It's amazing how when you start measuring your years by the little ones in your life how quickly time passes! The general consensus on Facebook seems to be that 2016 was a very hard year for many people. It was a pretty average… Continue reading Happy New Year!

Single in the Church

It simply is what it is. You've just got to roll with the punches and go with the flow. I've… Continue reading It Is What It Is
Trust the Process
“Trust the process. God hasn’t brought you this far to suck the wind out of your sails.” These were the words I tapped out in a quick reply text to a friend a few weeks ago as she begged me for prayers over a situation that she was guaranteed wouldn’t be a problem. I wasn’t… Continue reading Trust the Process
Something More
"Stop hoping and start hoping!" - Dr. John Avant My pastor shared this point two weeks ago in his message about God's song for our country.

It’s Our Problem
I'll be honest, I want to look the other way. I want to hide under my pillow. I want to close my eyes because I do not have the answers to what is happening in our country. This isn't something that you can slap an "this is the end times" band-aid on ... that works… Continue reading It’s Our Problem

"The path to hell is lined with good intentions." That's the statement a friend of mine made to me a little while ago today when I asked him on how you know the difference of walking in the flesh and walking in the Spirit? I shared that it's not my desire to walk in the… Continue reading When Good Intentions Are Wrong
