Until We’re Appreciative
It’s the “little” things about life and love that one is most appreciative. The smallest of detail that makes a gesture special, signature, significant. One would have to be paying close attention to execute this easily. We like it when people notice and care enough to give us what we like not so much what…

Until We All Eat
Usually I’m the caregiver, the one expending effort, energy and enthusiasm about the time I spend with my family (especially my nieces and nephews). This pandemic has forced me to find ways to stay connected, productive and apart of my their lives. So I thought this is the perfect time to teach them how to…

Until We Know
As a youngster I watched very little television, I wasn’t allowed to listen to any secular music, go to the park, mall unattended, hangout over friends houses. I was busy learning how to care for others, going to church, reading or singing. So more times than not I find myself asking questions that people burst…

Grace
If we live and love according to our understanding of right and wrong we will miss, mess up and make a mockery of love. Trust me I was an expert at this. This was my specialty. I was unwilling, unfeeling, unforgiving and unyielding in the manner in which I lived and I loved. I lived…

Fully Persuaded
I live and love in awe of the faithfulness of our God. The Word states his heart is that none be lost. Engrafted into the plan, purpose and provision of God are opportunities of faith…chance after chance to get and do right. It is never the love of God that fails us but it is…

Fully Present
Living and loving in the moment is challenging. Often times our bodies are present but our hearts and minds are elsewhere. Think of all the missed opportunities to experience God in a fresh and exciting way. We can learn from everything …what to do or what not to do. Living and loving actively present makes…

Preference
Every gift doesn’t come in the perfect package, is not the end result of a passionate presentation. There are some GIFTS received opposite preference that changes life and love for the better. It does not feel or look like it but life and love is gifting us with what we need to appreciate the blessing…

Persevere
While in the throws of panic, pressure, pain and pending outcomes my heart confidently trust that GOD is working it all together to bring about the new thing breaking forth. When we have nothing else, when everything seems to be falling apart and it becomes evident we are not in control life and love forces…

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…
