Sunset
“He has made everything beautiful and appropriate in its time. He has also planted eternity [a sense of divine purpose] in the human heart [a mysterious longing which nothing under the sun can satisfy, except God]—yet man cannot find out (comprehend, grasp) what God has done (His overall plan) from the beginning to the end.”…

Pressure Of the Big Screen
I enjoy going to the movies. Visual imagery and a great storyline (executed correctly) strengthens/stretches my own creative flare/flow. I frequent the movie theater to break up the monotony of everyday occurrences and to attempt some type of balance in my enjoyment of the literary world. On most occasions, words in and of themselves can…

Investments
“Early investments grow over a lifetime ” (AntTBri). I believe in planting seeds, making deposits… interpersonal investments of time, talent and treasure. Especially, possibly excessively in terms of our children. It is always my hope that the seeds of love and attention will nurture a solid, stable and steadfast foundation to grow upon. People comment…

DARE
It is no secret, nor is it a badge of honor that abstinence is my choice of life and love while I’m single. When people ask me “how do you do it” or advise that God understands we have needs” my response always throws them because it is not laden with Scripture although it is…

Queen
Having had, displayed, lived and loved from a heart posture likened to Michal (King David’s wife) I’m cognitive of my motive of saying and doing lest bitterness, grudges, hurts, disappointment and entitlement rule me once again.

Just A Man
Listen in on any womans prayer and it is very likely her petition includes “God give me a man after your own heart” or “make him a man after your heart”. The imagery that accompanies that assertion and assessment is the stuff fantasies are made of. We picture the perfect man who says and does…

It’s Really A Heart Issue
“A good man out of the treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good and a evil man man out of the treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil…for of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” Luke 6:45 (read 43-45 for the full flavor) Ever notice how much…

Struggling With No?
We’re quick to give lively witness when God says yes to our petitions of prayer. We boast and relish in the favor of God’s love. Not so quick to share the challenges, confussion and complexities of our struggling to accept, agree and acclimate to God’s No. Does God’s no mean we are not favored or…

Where You At?
Absentee fathers and mothers inundate our homes, churches and communities. The issue isn’t limited to physicality, presence or provision. It is housed in the comfort of justification. The foundation of our practice rest upon our desire to escape the problems, pressures and pains of growth and maturity…that of our own and those persons connected to…

Go For It
A lady at my church was walking by and heard me ask my friend’s son when he was going to take me on a date (in jest may I add) and she told him “tell her never…she’s high maintenance…you see the way she dress…you don’t want to have to work that hard to keep her…
