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 […]

Rest for the Rest
The word for this year that the Lord gave ME is REST. And look what popped up! Specifically, In my Spirit I saw these words: If you do not Rest, you cannot RESET for the REST. #TheGreatReset Many of us struggle with rest because rest as a concept has been tied to the physical act […]

“Things I Left Behind” : A Year End Reflection
“Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:13-14 KJV The 2022 version of this thing […]

Acknowledging WHY I eat
Notice how none of these things include being hungry? I wish the fat would melt away and the pain would go away and the habits would correct themselves but I know better cuz I’m carrying the fat of it all. 🤦🏾♀️ Some things. They don’t require a professional to tell you or show you. Some […]

You got me going in circles
Last night, I finally dreamed again–not the regular dreams that people get that we usually don’t remember. No, I saw a dream from God. And this is the part where you leave if you don’t believe in God. Or don’t. Cuz maybe you need to believe in God. Anyway. When I was little, it happened […]

Being myself in the Lord
My Memories preaching to me TUH DAY. 😭👌🏾 August 6, 2017 TestimonyforToday: have you ever seen someone else and wished for some aspect of their personality? I have. My husband always points out all the women of God who are what he calls “sweetly saved”. And they ARE sincerely sweet. Give you the warm and […]

There can only be one “ME”
confession: The hardest lesson that I’ve ever had to walk out was that I could never—SHOULD NEVER expect anybody else to be “like” me. Lemme explain. I have been hurt over and over again because I expected people to think the way I think, love the way that I love. I move without guile yet […]

The Messiness of Motherhood
Being a mother is learning about strengths you didn’t know you had and dealing with fears you didn’t know existed. Nishan Darwar When they say “parenting doesn’t come with an instruction manual,” that’s such an understatement. At least it was for me! Even with the unsolicited but absolutely necessary and exceedingly appreciated advice from my […]

Boundaries
I almost forgot! I’d actually meant to “press” someone else’s work and forgot that I never actually did it; I had saved it, thinking I’d scheduled it instead. What I had meant to do was leave a little blurb on their original post before I shared it because to do otherwise seems rude to me, […]

The Pressure to Perform
I don’t know when it happened or how but… I found myself stuck like chuck a few months ago. Like, on complete and utter pause trying to figure out why I was so miserable, so tapped out. I wanted to tear my hair out! But the Lord is nothing if not merciful and kind, so […]
