“I said, let days speak and many years teach wisdom.” -Job 32:7 1.

When my words consistently speak God, but […]
Singles and Social Distancing
DEAR SINGLES, I want to encourage you. This is a very vulnerable time for so many, including singles. This season of social distancing, isolating, and lack of human interaction can birth feelings of loneliness. It can also ignite deep desires and yearnings for closeness. As well as tempt you to dwell on dark thoughts of […]
Healthy Whole Healed
Sometimes the depth of our dysfunction and sin can be so great that when healthy/godly relationships or healthy/godly patterns try to enter our lives, we push them away. When we become so comfortable in dysfunction and sin, being ‘healthy” and “whole” becomes very uncomfortable and foreign to us. But who ever said the road to healing, the road to wholeness, the road to healthy, and the road to holiness would be easy? What if the discomfort we are avoiding can be the very path to our redemptive healing?
Grown Wounded Child
Time does not heal all wounds. Sometimes time further reveals the wounds that haven’t been attended to or dealt with. Wounded children don’t grow up to be adults, they grow up to be still wounded children. No matter how old we get in earthly years, we will never out-grow being a child to God. Our healing is found in our Heavenly Father who created and made us. Don’t believe me? Read more to find out.

Oh to Be Like Little Children
It’s amazing how little children have the ability to ignite your soul in a way that no one else can. On this particular day, I worshipped with the brethren at Lekki Church of Christ in Lagos, Nigeria. It was truly a site to see. To be able to be amongst God’s people and worship God in […]

Bloom Gracefully
“As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him; for He knows how we are formed, He remembers that we are dust. The life of mortals is like grass, they flourish like a flower of the field..”-Psalm 103:13-15 One of my favorite places during my […]
Limitless
One of the first stops of my vacation was the world renown city of Dubai. I was beyond excited to enter it’s terrains. I was completely taken back by it’s ultramodern architecture and it’s luxurious atmosphere. Hundreds of skyscrapers lined it’s many streets. Dubai had almost everything imaginable! If there was something you wanted to […]
When THE FACE Comes Off
There is a saying that is referred to as, “Putting ON FACE.” It’s a new millennial phrase that refers to the ability to pretend or make sure what others see on the outside is the made-up, happy, best version of ourselves and of our lives. I believe it’s a phrase that has become a toxic epidemic […]
