On this 7th day of the New Year
On this 7th day of the New Year I will only care, concern, and consume myself with those things that are life giving. I will intentionally intensify in prayer, praise, and proclaimation of the Word as it relates to pursuing and maintaining purposeful relationships. I will begin the process of evaluation and introspection so my…

Today 1.5.22
Today I will disregard the success of yesterday. I will lay to rest the testimonies of old and live and love in the present. Today there are new opportunities, new mercies, and grace for what is embarking upon my now. Today does not have to compete with yesterday…it will not be compared to yesterday and…

You cannot peruse Facebook, Instagram, Tik Tok or any other social media platform without being inundated with footage or depictions of current “challenges”. It’s definitely become a thing. A lot of these “challenges”are presented like a (dare) or (what do you have to lose) ultimatum. And many of “us”buy into or rise to the occasion…

“Just Let Me Cry” ~Violet Burns Crosby
My niece Violet was crying and her mother was trying to help soothe her by asking an assortment of questions and offering possible fixes or alternatives to what she thought/felt would appease her.

It Will Make Sense
Moments when life and love start to make sense help us appreciate the times when we dared to trust God and hoped against hope when it made no sense. We are so glad we didn’t give up, throw in the towel or forfeit. God is so faithful, so gracious and true to His Word. God…

Coming
I don’t know about you, but I am living and loving for what’s coming. This pandemic, political unrest, and racial protesting has set us up, forced us even to consult, consider and conceed to the will of God. It encourages us to focus all our energy and prayer on what’s coming. Despite the bouts of…
