Reality Check

Reality Check There can STILL be sadness on the mountain top. There can STILL be loneliness with status and popularity. There can STILL be emptiness with material possessions and money. Many individuals spend their whole lives chasing people, status, and things. However, life, peace, and joy does not come from any of those things. Our source […]

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 […]

FEELING INSECURE

GOD’S MOST BEAUTIFUL CREATION You are God’s precious treasure and He loves you so much! You are one of God’s most beautiful creations.

“You shall have no other gods before me.” –Exodus 20:3 I was in a really bad place. My spirit was off, my mood was bothered, and I felt spiritually unfulfilled. It’s as if a ungodly poison was flowing through my spiritual veins. I felt so empty… spiritually lost. I asked myself, “Why do I feel […]

“What is MASKING YOU”

What Would We Do Without Makeup and Weave? Sometimes I wonder what women would do if all the make-up and weave in the world disappeared.
