Shall We Pray
Back in the day, old time church we prayed until things changed…we did not let up or ease up when it looked better…we prayed until it was better. Somewhere along the way we lost the art of tarrying. We bought into the whole name it and cliam it phenomenon. I get it human effort doesn’t…

Riddle Me This
Some years ago while learning how to hear the voice of God (via my church’s prayer academy) the instructor told us to close our eyes, picture God and journal what we saw, heard etc. I remember feeling so frustrated with the exercise because I saw nothing but blackness when I closed my eyes, let alone…

Amen
Amen. It is said, when you know better you do better. Spent most of this morning trying to decipher where exactly have I placed my faith. Am I living and loving in faith that one day God will? Or am I living and loving in faith that right now God is? Where exactly am I…

Pressure to Shine
“For YOU cause my lamp to be lighted and to shine;The Lord my God illumines my darkness.” Psalm 18:28 AMP Last week, I received a notification that my godson’s mother, aka my (baby momma) shared a post to my timeline. Preoccupied, I made a mental note to look at it when time permitted.…

Pressure of the Urn
…he will give a crown of beauty for ashes…Isaiah 61:3 Sitting on the mantle of my cognitive awareness, vividly decorated by the details of life and love resides the ashes of mourning. Seared into the seat of my emotions is the confinement of a costly closed container housing the remains of death…all that has died…

Pressure to Forget
I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead (Philippians 3:13 AMPC) I no longer talk to her, and she no longer has welcomed access to speak into…

Pressure to Hope
May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope.(Romans 15:13 AMPC) There probably are a million and one reasons not to continue. A million…

Pressure to Keep Moving
While training to become a Thai Chi instructor two months ago, it occurred to me healing is often the end result of the pressure to keep moving. Moving with the current pain, beyond the present moment into the next with expectation and hope seems to be the plight of all humanity. It’s the pressure to…

Pressure to Begin Again
I like the month of August for a many reasons but mainly because it’s the eighth month of the year. It serves as a reminder that life and love holds the promise of new beginnings. It’s the month if we’re cognitive that we feel the pressure to Begin again. I don’t know that…

Pressure To Gather
“When they had all had enough, He said to His disciples, Gather up now the fragments (the broken pieces that are left over), so that nothing may be lost and wasted.” (John 6:12 AMP) One would only have had to enjoy playing with building blocks as a child to know the value, validity and variety…
