Pickles, Chocolate & Desires
I know, the title is a little funky but we like to have fun over here. I want to give a S/O to Priscilla Shirer because she said something that has played over and over in my mind for days. It was powerful and practical. She was speaking on the Candace Cameron Bure podcast and…

Happy New Year!
If you’re reading this, you have something to praise God for. Happy New Year! We have been kept for another year and have been chosen to enter into 2025! Let’s pause to thank God for his faithfulness and promises. One of the many new things I tried last year was cycling. I joined the Cycle…

Life Lessons from NYC
At any point in time, we are living an answered prayer. For a while, I’ve wanted to have a New York Christmas and this year I was blessed to do so. Everyday spent there was packed with activities. I walked over 32,000 steps which was about 13 miles, I visited several popular and iconic places,…

What a privilege to gather with family. What a privilege to stay home. What a privilege to have someone call you on the phone. What a privilege to have dinner to cook. What a privilege to have a house to clean. What a privilege to be overwhelmed with plans. What a privilege to have a…

Mighty Hand of God
On many occasions, I’ve asked God to speak to me while I’m asleep because I can’t be distracted, I can’t busy myself with something, I’m just completely vulnerable and open to Him. On October 26th, I had the most realistic and jarring encounter with God. Specifically, a vision of His mighty hand. The message was…

In God We Trust
I hope you still have your joy! The joy of the Lord is your strength. This is a good time to realize the difference between joy and happiness. Happiness is based on results, outcomes and circumstances and therefore ebbs and flows with the turns of life. Joy, however, runs deep and is anchored. So count…
