God’s Love In The Meantime
Sitting in the Caribbean sun, listening to Mary J. Blige—she is truly one of my all-time favorite singers. Her music, her melodies, and her flow speak deeply to my soul. Today I’m listening to her song In the Meantime. The lyrics say: In the meantime, what do you do?When there’s no one left but youAnd…

Thankful
Every year I try to find a way to remain Thankful, in spite of what happens in my every day life. We all face some form of fear or regret, some form of betrayal or abandonment by the people we love, we all face challenge’s and opportunities but it’s not really what we face but…

The Hokey Pokey
Put your right arm in, take your right arm out.Put your right arm in, and you shake it all about.Do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around—That’s what it’s all about! Put your left arm in, take your left arm out.Put your left arm in, and you shake it all about.Do the Hokey Pokey…

I AM STILL PRAYING
“Lord GOD, you are my hope. I have trusted you since I was a young boy. I depended on you even before I was born. I relied on you even in my mother’s womb. I have always prayed to you. You are my source of strength, so I have been an example to others.” Psalms…

Nothing Like Him
Nothing gets me going like a good prayer. A prayer filled with exultation to the Lord has me praising and worshipping Him in spirit and in truth. I’m always in awe when someone prays in a way that gets you excited about our God! Our God is able. Our God is a healer. He helps…

Life
What about those times in your life when you get knocked completely out? It’s rarely the big things that take you down—those, you’ve prepared for. It’s the little aggravating things that end up snatching your power. These small, seemingly insignificant moments can drain your strength in prayer, silence your voice, and stop your songs of…

Here I Sit
As I Sit: A Reflection on Grace, Growth, and God’s Faithfulness As I sat staring at my past, I reflected on my journey. I took out my pain, held it in my hand, and reviewed it from side to side, trying to understand how I survived. I looked at the times I missed the mark—the…

Slow Down
“Slow down. Take a deep breath. What’s the hurry? Why wear yourself out? Just what are you after anyway? But you say, ‘I can’t help it. I’m addicted to alien gods. I can’t quit.’”— Jeremiah 2:25 (MSG) We often think the enemy is attacking us when we face hardships, difficulties, and tests. But the truth…

Ain’t No Need to Worrying
“If you don’t know what you’re doing, pray to the Father. He loves to help. You’ll get His help and won’t be condescended to when you ask for it. Ask boldly, believingly, without a second thought. People who ‘worry their prayers’ are like wind-whipped waves. Don’t think you’re going to get anything from the Master…

She beckoned me
I wrote this in 2013 … I looked across the room and there was a woman looking back at me, she beckoned me to her with a smile and a nod. As I approached the woman I made a few assumptions about her based on my limited life experiences. I assumed she was fairly well…

Yes, you are the one
Yes, you are the exception to the rules.You are the one who messed up so badly that God will not forgive you.Yes, you are the one person on earth whose sins are bigger than the Blood of the Lamb. At least, that’s what the enemy wants you to believe. We Complicate What God Made Simple…

Faith In A Quiet Place

HIS name
Do you ever stop and think about why God has so many names? I was laying here minding my own business at 4:05 in the morning when the Holy Spirit woke me up to tell me it’s because we have to believe in God for so many things. Jehovah Jirah, my provider, when things are…

Muscle Memory
Some of the things we do are automatic—no thought, no planning, just muscle memory. Muscle memory: the ability to reproduce a particular movement without conscious thought, acquired through frequent repetition. I remember when I had a bowling coach who would have me throw the ball over and over again. “Step up to the line, aim…
