Yesterday I listened to young man sharing his journey of faith. He mentioned that it was a tough day for him but he was learning how to push through when things don’t go as he expects. I started to reflect on my season and the lessons I’m being taught currently. There are times when weContinue reading “What If”

Now I Know
Over the past 30 plus days, I’ve struggled with some respiratory challenges. At the tail end of this journey, I got some relief these past few days- I haven’t coughed once. Without a doubt, I truly have a new appreciation for the gift of ‘breathing’ freely and independently. For over a month I’ve dealt with insomnia, lackContinue reading “Now I Know”
Live Simple
Too often we complicate life. We engage in battles not meant for us to fight. Hold on to baggage that cause us to walk bent over. Rather than pursue healing, we keep open wounds that cause us ongoing pain. The emptiness in our soul leave us aching and searching for things that cannot satisfy. WeContinue reading “Live Simple”
Troubled One
If impossibility was a person, many may say we’ve met. Sometimes she shows up at the most unexpected time. For many, she’s that unwelcomed visitor that comes to discourage and distract. It’s good to know there’s One who is never surprised. If we trust Him – His plans are perfect. Trust this: For I knowContinue reading “Troubled One”
Why Me?
That’s a common question we ask when hit with tough twists and turns in life. Why me? Here’s something to chew on – Why not you? Why not me? Often, I’ve read the Psalms and wondered what the writers were walking through when they wrote those life-changing words. Words that years later still comfort, inspire,Continue reading “Why Me?”
Shattered Pieces
Have you ever heard a song, smelled a perfume/cologne or seen something that unexpectedly evokes some unwelcomed emotions in you? It can come upon you like a rushing wave, toppling you over at the most inconvenient time. These emotions are like broken glass. Even after you sweep carefully, there may be shattered pieces lying around.Continue reading “Shattered Pieces”
Final Moments
I’ve been reflecting on those who had the opportunity to be near Jesus during His final moments. The soldier whose ear he healed after it was slashed by one of Jesus’ followers [Matthew 26: 51-52]. What an act of mercy and grace! The soldier didn’t ask for healing or even believed for it. Many ofContinue reading “Final Moments”
The Day After
This is the day after ‘Good Friday’. I imagine the plethora of emotions that drenched the heart and minds of Christ’s followers. His earthly mother probably cried until there was nothing left. I wander what thoughts ran through her mind. The questions she dared ask God. The memories of her son flooded her mind –Continue reading “The Day After”
It is Still You
Reflection is part of my growth and healing process. It helps to keep things in perspective for me. When I wake up with $20 in my bank account, and my bills are paid I certainly have a different outlook. I have learned to put on my garb of gratitude. When I know where my imperfectContinue reading “It is Still You”
We Made It!
I had to squeeze in one last post for 2022! This year came with many great moments and some others that pulled the best and worst out of me. Cried some tears, faced one of my greatest fears – had to stop and BREATHE a time or two. I stayed committed to this blog andContinue reading “We Made It!”
