Dear One
“My son, do not despise the Lord’s discipline, and do not resent his rebuke, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in” Proverbs 3:11-12 Sr., dear one she’s not pure not dear She hates where you’ve been The things that make you you That’s why you have to…

Release
It is contrary to common practice but with God it is possible…it happens…and it will happen for us. The very people God used to chastise, correct, constrain, and hold Judah captive due to King Ahaz’s disobedience ended up being the same people used to minister restoration, healing, and voyage back to Jericho (see 2 Chronicles…

Refreshing
Its official we are moving from barrenness to fruitfulness…God’s purifying power is healing life and love from the propensity to be unproductive, unfruitful, sterile, and barren. We will no longer suffer miscarriages, still births, or abort purpose as a result of the bad water nourishing our surroundings. God Almighty is the purifying agent causing the…

About Time
I don’t know if it’s the tick tock of my alarm clock…or the inner alarm of my biological clock that has me tracking, thinking and talking about time. Maybe it’s the passing of time or my need to be more mindful of time that is triggering my focus and turning my feelings toward time. All…

Get Away
Before life and love underwent this season of inactivity I was always on the go. It seemed I lived to find someplace to go. One I use to hate the city in which I live and two I loved the freedom of being who I am without the scrutiny, skepticism, and scholarly advice of how…

Private Party
A few years ago one of my favorite singers India Arie performed a song entitled Private Party. The premise of the song was that she was having a private party with herself…celebrating the woman she’s become. There are times as we venture to live and love in God’s likeness that we have to allow the Holy…

Preview Party
The hardest day of the year for me as a child was Christmas Eve. To know you have presents under the tree WITH YOUR NAME ON IT and not be able to unwrap, look at, engage or enjoy them until a designated time seemed like cruelty to me. And to make matters worse my mom…

Catch the Vision…
What can be said, that hasn’t been said before? What can be discussed, and searched out that hasn’t been previously explored? This may be new to other people, but not to you and your God. He is relational and he maintains a loving, living relationship with you. What’s transpiring now is very familiar to you;…

Momma’s Tired
Exasperated by time, failed effort, weary of fun turned old, expired pleasure, meaningless, useless intimate exchanges. A little older, more mature, feeling worn and tattered; like a notch on several belts; beautiful, masquerading elegance, presenting diva, daring, courageous yet needy and vulnerable to the elements of time, trouble, and trials. Working hard, trying to make…

Woman Like
I got my reasons for thinking, feeling, and doing what I do…being how I am. I wouldn’t expect you to be able to relate or speak to my internal torment…you’ve never been nor will you ever know my version of woman and I definitely don’t want nothing to do with yours. Vulnerability is weakness, doing…
