SHOES!! I love them. If you were to take a look in my closet you will probably find about 25 pairs. In fact, if you were to visit my Pinterest page you would find an entire page dedicated to them. I was reading a blog post from a friend of mine the other day and she was talking about the shoes she is currently wearing. She stated she did not want to be in that particular pair, but that God currently had her wearing them. She was using shoes as a symbol for a season in her life. I want Read More

Decisions: Paths to Your Destiny
Decisions guide our lives. Have you ever made the decision to serve God? Or to stay active? What about the decision to eat healthily? We all make decisions, yet sometimes our decisions are not based on good information or from the leading of the Holy Spirit. Decisions are often based on information we have in a single moment in time. One of my favorite animated movies is Anastasia. If you don’t know the story you can read about it here. In the animated version, Anastasia comes to a crossroads and she has to make a decision. She is not sure Read More
Basics: Transformed and Chosen
Basics are those things which are fundamental in your Christian walk. Prayer, worship, love, faith, and giving. God is telling us to get back to the basics. Over the past few months I have felt like God is slowing things down. He is telling us to SLOW YOUR ROLL. It’s like a skier going downhill and as the momentum of the downward slop decreases, the skier starts to slow down as well. In this season, God wants us to get back to the BASICS of our faith. Spend more time in prayer and worship; increase your love walk (actively love, Read More
Broken Focus Leads to Disaster: Avoid Distractions
Broken Focus leads to disaster and distractions are dangerous. That’s the message I got from the Holy Spirit this week. As Christians, we need to remain focused on what’s important to God which includes His plans and His people (Colossians 3). Do not allow the things going on in the world to distract you from your purpose or your call. Focus is a game-changer; however, broken focus will lead to disaster. Broken focus is a plan killer. This week and the coming weeks will be very busy for me. My Spring class starts on Thursday, I am working on assignments, Read More
Why God?: Go Ahead and Ask, He will Answer
Why? Has God ever asked you to do something and you wanted to ask Him just one question? Why God? God’s request does not make sense in the natural, but in the Spirit, it makes perfect sense. We are at that time in history when God will be asking us to do some things that appear to the world as foolishness, but as He said, “But God has selected [for His purpose] the foolish things of the world to shame the wise [revealing their ignorance], and God has selected [for His purpose] the weak things of the world to shame Read More
Help! God is Here to Meet that Need
Help! This is the cry from the hearts of the masses. Help is needed and often we wonder where our help will come from. It will not come from the government (No consensus reached). It will not come from your employer (Unemployment rate of 7.9%). It will not come from any person. Help, comes from the Lord (Psalm 34:17, Psalm 121). I was going to write on another topic today, but I thought we could use a clear reality check. We are not a people forgotten (Psalm 10:12). We are not a people without hope (Hebrews 6:19). We are a Read More
