The Wait is Over
The truth is we will always have to wait for God to move in our lives. Waiting refines our faith. What Iām taking about is the Wait we put on ourselves when God shows us a vision. I have the tendency to say, āI am going to be patient with the Lord. Iām going to wait for Him to give me the resources.ā Itās easier … Continue reading The Wait is Over
Stay Connected
ļ»æ Complacency as Merriam-Webster describes is,” self-satisfaction especially when accompanied by unawareness of actual dangers or deficiencies,” with an accompanying example as, “When it comes to safety, complacency can be dangerous.” Christians sometimes become complacent and comfortable. We walk through life “knowing” that we are in control. We do what we want to do and when we want to do it. Everything must happen according … Continue reading Stay Connected
Let it Go
Lately, I have been feeling jaded. I’ve been feeling lost and confused with the constant yearning for more. Out of this emptiness I have been seeking and asking for too much of my loved ones to fill a void that only Jesus can fill. When my actions seem overbearing, I realize that only the Father can bear all. Sometimes we look to humans or earthly … Continue reading Let it Go
Something’s Missing
āSearched all over couldnāt find nobody. I looked high and low, still couldnāt find nobody. Nobody greater than You.ā Life is indeed a journey. We go through life trying to find our purpose, pleasing others, making mistakes, and we find ourselves looking in all of the wrong places for love and acceptance. However, we find that weāre still empty, feeling a hollow void that is … Continue reading Something’s Missing

āConfess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful resultsā (James 5:16). Itās easy to give God praise when all is great in our lives, but can we praise Him when all hell breaks loose? Iām learning that I need Godās strength the most … Continue reading Phone Home
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
As We Travel
Life is a journey. It is a ride. It is a roller coaster of what’s expected and the actual happening. A spiritual conquest. Talking with God. Listening to Him. He leads however, sometimes our feet fail to follow. He is He who holds tomorrow. Our quench for now falters our patience and we begin to walk a path of self satisfaction, which often leads to … Continue reading As We Travel
Give up or NAH?

He won’t let you down; he won’t leave you” (Deuteronomy 31:6, The Message Translation). Life can be difficult at times. We may find ourselves in situations that may weigh us down, making it hard to … Continue reading Give up or NAH?
A Father’s Love

Leprosy was a disease that was very much … Continue reading A Father’s Love
The Journey of Life
When I first went off to college, I was excited, yet terrified. I couldnāt believe the moment I had been waiting for had finally arrived and I would officially be experiencing life on my own. I was homesick at first, but I slowly began to adjust to college life. I remembered my morals and vowed to continue to follow them while I was away. I … Continue reading The Journey of Life
