Embracing New Beginnings
18 “Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
19 See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland.”
Setting Our Priorities
It’s a new year, a fresh start filled with hopes and pursuits. As we embark on this journey, it’s essential to set our priorities straight, and what better way to begin than by making God our top priority? In 1 Chronicles 16:11 we are reminded, “Look to the Lord and His strength; seek his face always.”
How Do You Trust God?
– Psalm 31:14 ESV
In order to trust God in God you must have confidence in him. You have to believe in his word, in his strength and his ability to sustain you. You can not doubt him. Do you have confidence in God?
Prepare Your Heart for Christmas
The Christmas Holidays are always a busy time of year. I don’t know about you, but I have a calendar of events and a long To-Do list that keeps me running. I’m busy with decorations, shopping, gifts, and holiday celebrations. This year, I wanted to be intentional about reading God’s scriptures and praying during the season, so I decided to add seven scriptures and prayers to my To-Do list.
Four Ways to Be an Authentic Women
When I first realized the gravity of the pandemic, I have to admit I was fearful. I was not sure what to believe. Things seemed out of control. As a woman of faith, I knew God was in control, but how could I protect myself, my family, and my friends? It did not take me long to grasp I was not in control. God’s word is clear in both Matthew 6:25-34 and Philippians 4:6 ESV, “Do not worry” and “Don’t Be Anxious”.
The Blessing of Prayer
I have discovered one of the greatest benefits of prayer is the relationship that I have built with God. I have come to know that it does not matter whether I am on my knees, in worship, walking or driving; what is important is that I am communicating and listening to Him. He is my best friend and prayer is how I talk to Him.
Love Yourself!
– Romans 5:5
On Valentine’s Day, there is a heavy emphasis on relationships and love. I’m challenging you to remember the most important form of love in our lives is “SELF LOVE.”

Are You Speaking Self-Love?
Are you speaking self-love? As I was thinking about celebrating love in February with my dearest ones, I began to ponder self-love. What is it? Do I love myself and create a practice that brings me happiness? Am I investing in a self-love routine?
One-Lane Road
The first quarter of 2020 kicked off with a bang. As a Type A personality, I was on cruise control and enjoying the ride. From my perspective, the detour seemed to be just a narrowing down to a one-lane road ahead. I only had 50 miles to go, so not a big deal. Detours are usually only a few miles, or so I thought. Suddenly, another detour appeared with a flagman waving a sign for traffic to slow way down. Then the traffic stopped! Now, I am at a crawl. That detour sign read “COVID-19”.
