 Hey guys it's been a very long time! I truly missed writing every other day but life's demands have been too great on me lately that I've not had the time to do some of the things I love. I've finally gotten a hang of most of my responsibilities plus I have help so I am back to stay! To catch you guys up on some major events that have happened in my life; I have been blessed with the exceptional gift of a daughter! whew! This blog just got more interesting because I have a ton of things to write about motherhood but not today but definitely in the days to come. I have a lot to share, God has been so good! Back to our topic, what you believe or receive over your life or that of your loved ones (as I recently discovered) will be what becomes your/their reality.  A few hours after giving birth to my daughter, I was sitting on the bed, overwhelmed and tired yet somehow with a full heart and feeling so blessed at the same time. While sitting down, the hospital pediatrician ...

 I struggled with the title of this piece.  The goal is to get you to understand that every season of your life is authored by God.  Even the ones you do not like or seem to be burdensome.  Acts 1:7  He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority There is a time for everything. There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens..  + Ecclesiastes 3:1 This does not take away the fact that sometimes, a season may need to last a little while and due to our decisions, it tarries for a very long time. Remember the story of the isrealites, and how they tarried in the wilderness for 40years because of complaining!  Personally, I've learned that staying in sin, living in disobedience can keep you in a "wilderness" for a really long time. You cannot be dishonest in your dealings and expect the superatural blessings of God. You cannot keep fornicating and expect ...

  I've been super busy with growing a business and managing my family- hence my short absence. But I am back for real! Today, my topic is a little bit personally inspired but one thing I've always promised you, my dear readers is to be totally honest and in the light of that, you learn and God alone be glorified. This blog is so personal and my desire is that the multitude come to christ via my words. My truth in ink. I am a dreamer and quite recently I added a DOER to my list. I dream of something? I begin to work towards it intentionally.  Now, there are times I get bored but the holy spirit has helped me to remain faithful to my garden even when I loose that first excitement that comes with a starting a new project or a love attraction. As I go through life, I realise that every season we go through is for a reason and notably to prepare us for something we prayed for or a season God so desires for us.  Again, I digress... to the topic at hand. Ten years ago, I applied...

When you search for the synonym of forgiveness you will find these words among others: reprieve, amnesty, mercy, exoneration, pardon and condoning.  Forgiveness does not always come so easily especially if someone you hold in high regard hurts you. Personally, forgiveness did not used to come to me easily. My default mode on dealing with betrayal and hurt was to run far away from the person or detach myself emotionally from the person. This solves nothing. Some people jump over it, ignore it or sweep it under the carpet and live in complete denial. Such people wake up one day and blow things out of proportion over a very small offence. They have been holding it all in and then one day, the proverbial "cup don full" happens! Some say they have forgiven but continue to talk about that betrayal or hurt every chance they get. Others NEVER forgive, this results in years and years of malice. Forgiveness is being aware that someone wronged you and granting them mercy or repr...

Happy new month!  I'm so excited that we have the gift of a new cycle. A time to start all over again, a time to go back to our mood board and restructure. How do you start your month? Do you just go into the month with no plan or direction  OR are you part of the lot that makes all the plans BUT few days into the new month, you're back into old habits. This used to be me.  It's almost impossible to drag our "flesh man" (our physical body) to do the right thing because it LOVES to be comfortable.  I've learned that if I want to see changes in my life, I have to do something differently. Especially positive changes. I remember this one time I had a business, just before I moved abroad temporarily and the sales were increasing almost daily! I struggled with consistency and this affected my business negatively. Today, I would post, interact with customers and do the right thing. Tomorrow? If I'm not feeling it, I just blank out. Whe...

The Dictionary defined insecurity as a lack of confidence in one's self.  Simply put, self doubt. I struggled with this for a long time growing up and I know I am an authority in this area. I can tell you how to deal with it and how to be completely free, all glory to God. Jesus worked some fine wonders in me and I am thankful! I use to struggle with insecurity in these areas: My weight. I've always been chubby and big boned. Growing up, I had people that would comment on this in jest. I hated it and I wanted to be so trim and perfect until the holyspirit dealt with it. I have the most beautiful figure, straight legs, hips and fat in the right places but because I fed their words into me as the truth... I TRIED to be someone else. I would exercise till my knees almost gave up. I would take weightloss pills. I would take detox teas. I spent alot of money... until Jesus took the wheel. - The holyspirit helped me through this. I learned to see my body thro...

When we get to the root of your heart, where does your hope reside? Who do you trust? A lot of times we put our hope in the wrong things and when it fails, we begin to question everything we believe in. I've been there. I remember one time, I was in a relationship and I totally replaced my partner (at the time) with God's place in my life. In short, I fixed my eyes on this guy and his ability to handle everything. I remember I started about four businesses and made life defining decisions, not because I had prayed about it and trusted that God was in control but because I trusted this guy. He was a highly efficient guy. I remember during our short relationship, one time I was having my covenant time, the lord asked me to leave him and I refused. Long story short, he left me with no explanation whatsoever and I was left to handle everything by myself! Tough few weeks of my life because my total dependency was on him. When I got down to prayer, the lord showed...
