As a teenager, I didn't really understand God. I didn't understand the depths my journey with Him could take me to. My sister and my mother would sit at the dining table and debate about armageddon and the anti-Christ and the details of prophecies in the Bible and occasionally I would hear his name; [...]
Today, I published my first interactive devotional book: Rise & Go Up This being interactive means most pages have actions as a result of you, the reader, clicking or hovering. Click on the pic below to read online. This was on my to-do list since Jan 2018 and it took a lockdown to get it [...]
Mark Twain famously said, "The two most important days in your life is the day you were born and the day you find out why." Everyone has gifts, talents and abilities. How we utilize them daily is what gives us meaning or purpose. When I was young, it felt like I could be anything, as [...]
I was told a long time ago there was a study done about 3 kinds of people; people who live for the moment, people who live for the future and people who live in the past. The study showed that majority of people who believed in some form of higher being or eternity would tend [...]
I just finished planning my to-do list for the week and .IT.IS.PACKED. So much so I'm just wondering how much margin am I leaving for what's really important. Because busy isn't necessarily productive and productive isn't necessarily effective. At the same time I have spent my fair share in the last few months really having [...]
Can you stand? Often the moments we experience move in waves. Ups, downs, storms, deserts, valleys, mountains; we know and can picture this. What we don't know is the timing of each rise and fall. So it messes us up the second we think we have it all figured out -WHAM! Bam. Kabloom. Rug. Under [...]
Did you know: It is estimated that a human is never more than 10 feet away from a spider—ever. Spiders can be caught by the hand, yet they're found in kings' palaces. No matter how atas you think you are, you'll find cobwebs in your castle. Because that's what a spider does. It instinctively rests [...]
I…don’t have the best history with plant, meaning they usually die in my hands fairly quickly. It didn’t matter what methods I tried, and I wanted to keep them alive, but they chased after the soil more than my affections. I never gave up though, because I like plants, yes, I know, the irony isn't [...]
It never really looks like what we think it would. Our answered prayers, I mean. Under-qualified, under-staffed and under maintenance. That's how the Israelites scouted the promised land. Sure, it was destined to be theirs but, oh, dang, the amount of work it would take. Sure, there were pomegranates and figs ripe for the picking; [...]
I chose to do this #paintbynumbers painting because flamingoes remind me of balance even though they look naturally like the kind of animal to tip over very quickly given their skinny legs and fluffy tops 🤚 #noshame It gives me the feeling that even in chaos, I can still find my centre as long as it is built upon [...]
