Shifting the Atmosphere
Many times, when God is exalting us, he performs a shift in our lives. When a shifting occurs, there is a change in position, an unexpected movement, and often times, the removal and addition of people in our lives. In the process of a shift, we are often confused and have many unanswered questions. People, we assumed would be in our lives forever, unexpectedly leave and the ones we least expect become our primary supporters. During a shift we sometimes lose things that are important to us and become increasingly distraught as it seems as though things are getting worse opposed to better. It is important to remember, that when…

Enough is Enough!
I am through with it all! I am done! I can’t and I won’t continue to live in this manner. I have decided that enough is enough! The fear that has kept me in captivity for years will no longer have its hold. The enemies of procrastination, consistent tardiness, and complacency no longer have a place in my life. The constant doubt of who I am and confusion concerning my purpose have to go. Why? Because enough is enough! The idea of settling and accepting less than what I desire in my heart, is no longer an option. I refuse to live by the boundaries that have been established around…

Joshua had been given the appropriate time needed to mourn the death of Moses and now it was time for him to go and conquer that land of promise. Many times God has…

I Am Worthy!
It has been almost a year that I have been on this writing journey. I remember when I first embraced the idea that God had called me to write and how nervous and unsure I was. Although people, primarily my husband and my mom, had been telling me about my writing for years I refused to accept what they were saying. One reason is because I honestly did not feel that I had a passion for writing and I was really unsure of myself. When I decided to go ahead and launch out into the deep I had many doubts. I wondered whether or not I would be able to…

Take Your Power Back!
There are so many times we run behind things and people that are either not meant to be in our lives or choose not to be. In some cases they are meant to be in our lives, however, they often mistreat us or discourage us whether it is intentionally or unintentionally. We must remember that although people may say and do hurtful things to us, these things can only tear us apart if we allow them to. We have the power and we must take it back! We have the power to keep pressing and keep believing in ourselves even when others do not. We have the power to overcome…
