The other night I was talking to my boys and I said, “Sometimes you have to lose yourself to find yourself.”  Of course their reaction was one of confusion.  They laughed and I went on to explain what I meant since obviously they didn’t quite understand what I was saying.  There are times that we…

It’s often when we face difficult situations in our life that we find ourselves to begin questioning if we are even on the right path.  I find myself facing those very same battles at times.  Just yesterday I woke up feeling broken and defeated.  I felt as if everything I had worked so hard for…

How many times have you cried out to God for help?  Those moments of desperation where you turn to God crying and pleading for His help because you know you just can’t do it on your own anymore?  And you felt as if God just wasn’t answering your prayers?  I’ve found myself many times crying…

How passionate would you say you are in your pursuit to reach your goals, dreams or with your walk with Christ?   Passionate to the point that you fully dedicate all your time and focus? When I was writing my first book, I spent countless hours at my desk just writing away when I wasn’t at…

When I show up to the office, I walk in fully loaded, carrying all my bags.  I have my big purse, my big bag with my books, bible, notebooks, mail and then I have my lunch bag.  I’ve been known to even show up with up to four bags.  You would think I was moving…

10 tiny fingers and 10 tiny toes.  I held your tiny little hands so gently in mine.  I was scared and nervous.  I had been waiting for 9 months that seemed would never come to an end.  It wasn’t because I was tired and uncomfortable but because the excitement was more than I could handle. …

A few nights ago I was crawling into bed pretty late and I still wasn’t sleepy.  I decided to scroll through Facebook.  I came across a shared post about a mom telling her story of what her and her husband were facing with their son.  My heart ached for her as I read her post. …

How many times have you heard, “God will meet all your needs”?  For years I would hear this in church.  One of the things we fail to realize sometimes is that we can’t expect God to provide for us ALWAYS and we not do our part.  We can’t sit there praying for financial freedom from…
