Early Morning Stress Stream
I’ve been writing almost every day to give my mind something to do. I’ve spent the last 5-6 years working on my emotional intelligence, recognizing (or rather having friends and mentors alike point out) that I do not engage my emotions as a normal person of my age should.

Love never fails. That’s it. That’s the prophetic word for the day.
Man. Y’all tired of reading yet? I have never been one to sit around and tell folks what the Lord SAID; the Lord don’t talk to me like Hw be talking to some of y’all. 🤷🏾♀️ I’m still working on the obedience part, still working on being slow to speak, still working on not by […]

I answered a prompt cuz I’m bored
What do you complain about the most? My hair. She hit perimenopause and became unruly in a way that makes me rage. Nothing satisfies my hair. It won’t lay down or stand up or stand still or do the same thing all at once. It’s absolutely frustrating. Okay bye.

Spencer Adventures (The Lord is near to the Broken-hearted)
I woke up expecting to hear the shower or Bishop GE Patterson or quiet sniggly laughter this morning. It is Saturday, the day for Spencer adventures. The day I have known for years as the day to get up to some foolishness. I would know the foolishness was afoot because he’d come home with fresh […]
