Decisions

Giving honor and praise to God for coming up on the one year anniversary of this blog site. If you have not read my About the Blogger page, then let me tell you this site was birthed specifically after praying to God about what He wanted me to do next with my gift of writing. […]

Do You Still Believe?

Do you remember the song Say Yes by Michelle Williams featuring Beyoncé and Kelly Rowland? As I was riding in my car this past weekend, this song started to play. I had completely forgotten about this CD in my disc changer, but I immediately became inspired by the words and started to praise God. Do […]

There’s Power in Going to the House of God

I have heard so people say they don’t need to go to church, or they can watch church on television. I’m not shunning anyone who chooses to watch sermons on television. I enjoy Christian networks and several television programs myself. This blog is not about that…who I am speaking to is the person who has […]

Brokenness

Sometimes in life we cause our own pain (e.g., we stay at a place or with someone longer than we should, we ignore God’s warnings, we hold on to something longer than we should, etc.), but what happens when someone else’s brokenness or lack of responsibility falls upon you? What are you supposed to do? […]

Who Do You Trust?

My family and I went to see The Lion King on opening day. It was quite enjoyable with many applauds at the end of the movie. Though many have seen this storyline played out either on Broadway, in a cartoon, or on film, I couldn’t help but see the true life experience in the story […]

Who are you going to believe…God or man?

When you are tested, who do you believe…God or man? I previously listened to a sermon, which was very powerful, where the minister said sometimes believers walk around like folks with No Hope. Why is this the case, though? Is it because deep down the person believes God will supply all their needs, but truly […]

Do you know what time it is?

Greetings everyone! I pray this post finds you all well. Do you know what time it is? In Chapter 3 of Ecclesiastes, the title in NIV is A Time for Everything. Verses 1-8 says: 1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: 2 a time to be […]

Love Thy Neighbor – Testimony

Happy Friday everyone! I would like to share a testimony with you that occurred yesterday. It’s a true testament to the verse love thy neighbor. Granted your neighbor is not just someone in your neighborhood but showing love and kindness to others as you would want to be treated. In Matthew 22:33-40 Jesus replied: “‘Love […]

You are my strength

Hello everyone. I pray that this blog post finds you well. I recently learned some sad news about my friend’s dad this week. It was at that moment I was reminded that we have all experienced challenges in life that may be heart-wrenching. Your situation may not be mine and mine may not be yours, […]

Feeling Incomplete? Wondering why…

Recently, I went for a power walk in my neighborhood when I came across three tree stumps. I immediately thought, Wow, I wonder how many people are walking around in this very same state – feeling incomplete. Looking for their situation to change in order for them to feel whole, waiting for a person to […]

God does Speak – EXODUS

Allow God to part the Red Sea in your life today. Seek Him and Listen to what He has to say about your situation (Godly Wisdom). You’re probably wondering if I follow what I write in my blog; in last week’s message I recommended reading Exodus to get an understanding of how Moses felt when […]

The Importance of Fellowship

I used to be apart of a writers club. No matter how much writing I was able to get done throughout the week (God has blessed me to publish two books), I felt more energized to start writing again after attending a meeting. Being in the presence of other writers revived my desire to write […]

Matters of the Heart: Revenge

In my Bible Study Group we’re reading the Book of Ezekiel. As I was praying on what to write this week, the verse in Ezekiel 5:13 caught my attention. I’ll let you grab your Bible and read it for yourself, but this verse struck me when God said “Then my anger will cease and my […]

Be Careful Who You Talk To

Have you ever been told, “Be careful who you share your personal business with…everyone is not your friend?” I know I have been told this growing up by my mother and grandmother. Even with their words of wisdom and that nudge deep from within that would let me know when someone didn’t have my best […]
