Something’s Missing
“Searched all over couldn’t find nobody. I looked high and low, still couldn’t find nobody. Nobody greater than You.” Life is indeed a journey.

However, we find that we’re still empty, feeling a hollow void that is … Continue reading Something’s Missing

Remain humble. “Do things for the work of the Lord and in the name of the Lord. Give praise to God for everything happening in your life. Your ego can be a prison to you.

Our Deepest Fear
“We ask ourselves; Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine.” Marianne Williamson Continue reading Our Deepest Fear
The Serenity Prayer
God grant me the serenity To accept the things I cannot change; Courage to change the things I can; And wisdom to know the difference.

Sunshine and Rain
The sun will not always be shining in our lives. It storms and rains from time to time. It is through those times when life’s most meaningful and tender lessons are taught to us. It is in our storms where we strengthen and enlarge our faith. We are shown the bigger picture. We can then understand that it is not about us. Selfishness becomes selflessness. … Continue reading Sunshine and Rain
