Like Before

We’ve been friends for a very long time. Part of me feels like we were a lot closer than we are now, and I’ve been saying that I would like us to be close again. I could lament how busy life is, and how there is so much to get done, but that’s an excuse. I could make time; but I’m afraid I’m splitting my time. There…

Satisfied

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.”  – Steve Jobs ** It has been a good week. Productive, powerful, eye opening. Eye opening because I realized in real time that …

Something's Gotta Give

When you know something to be true, your actions reflect your belief.   I consider my walk with God and how challenging it is on a day-to-day basis. How challenging it is to practice even in the community of faith that I’m part of. I think people make this journey so much harder; but I also believe they make it…

If You Know, You Know

For the foolishness  of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness  of God is stronger than human strength. 1Cor1:25 *        Be grateful for the open door. Be grateful that you are able to walk through the door to possess your possession. It is a privilege that some have been for days and years been praying for…

Fight or Flight

Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua1:9   **      I remember I was going through a hard time when I first began this blog. My life felt  meaningless; it felt as though I had built myself up only to have life utterly crus…

Seen

"People who add value to others do so intentionally. I say that because to add value, leaders must give of themselves, and that rarely occurs by accident."  John C. Maxwell **       It being the end of the month I was hoping to have something insightful to write. Something aspirational. However, I’d li…

Winter Arc

“It’s not about perfect. It’s about effort. And when you implement that effort into your life. Every single day, that’s where transformation happens. That’s how change occurs. Keep going. Remember why you started.” – Jillian Michaels **** ** I recently stumbled on a not-so-recent trend for self-improvement and prod…

Choices

May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears. Nelson Mandela **   Don’t ever say that you do not have a choice.   It’s either you are afraid of making the choice that you want to make because you don’t want to face what comes with standing up and being true to yourself.   Or you’re afraid to lose more than you …

Commanded Blessing

Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.  Isaiah 64:4 NIV ** *   As I was driving today Holy Spirit reminded me that I was, at that moment, living the promise of the word. He reminded me that what He whispered into …

Dissonance

The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; He delivers them from all their troubles. /Psalm 34:17/ *      I wish I’d known how to protect you better. I wanted to, but I didn’t know how. I didn’t know how because no one showed me how. I, too, needed protection but I didn’t know where to find it. I could only separ…

In God We Trust

Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;        he will answer him from his holy heaven        with the saving might of his right hand. Some trust in chariots and some in horses,        but we trust in the name of the LORD our God. | Psalm 20:6-7 | ~ **   There’s a Kdrama that I’ve just finished watching, wh…
