Things Above

As I speak with people and to myself, more often my language is centered around the Lord. I purposefully plan and look for opportunities to talk about him, his word, and share my testimony. I especially love it when I finish reading a chapter of the bible and then immediately have the chance to apply…

My church still has the decor of Resurrection Sunday adorning the church.  Most people would probably say “Why is that still up? Resurrection Sunday was several Sundays ago?” If someone did ask me why, I have a ready answer. It’s because the power of the Resurrection still lives on.  “I pray that you will begin…

It’s so special when you can pour out your heart on paper. Transforming the beats and aches of your heart into words. It’s even more beautiful when you can put those words to music and touch the hearts of the listeners.  I thank God for gospel music because of how it ministers to me and…

We usually have a few deliveries per week, so we created a tiered snack cart for our delivery drivers and put out a cooler that has cold drinks inside. Most of the time everyone takes a snack and a drink, but recently some have been declining.  One day I was preparing to put out the…

I was in Wegmans with my dad and we were standing in line chatting as we waited to be checked out.  He points and shows me the gift cards that are hanging up because he knows I love gift cards. My response was, “I would love one of those.” We continued to talk, checkout and…

Pastor Robert Madu is such a fun, authentic and relatable pastor. My watch later and history tab on my Youtube account is full of his sermons. There are so many sermons I could share with you, but this one really set my spirit on fire and I was having conversations about this sermon hours and…
