When someone goes through something bad you always hear people trying to give them advice that time will heal them but is that even true? I would have to say that it is 100% wrong advice because time never heals. It is what you do with that time that makes healing possible. If you have bad things happen to you in and you never deal with what happened thinking that time will eventually heal your … Continue reading
What do you do when things don’t go as planned? You move forward, I hope. You can’t allow things that happen to change who you are, because who you are isn’t that particular situation but who you are is in Christ. When you are in Christ you can roll with the punches as they come. Some of those punches may sting in life, but you still have to move forward in Faith. Here is an … Continue reading
Sometimes when God calls you, you have to burn your old life. What would you do if God told you that he had a better direction for you but you had to quit what you were doing and follow him? That is exactly what Elisha did! He burned his plows, cooked all his meat, and then followed Elijah. 1 Kings 19:21 – So Elisha turned back from him, and took a yoke of oxen and … Continue reading
So many people work so hard at protecting their identity from identity thieves, but they forget the biggest thief of them all and that is satan. He creates lies that you believe and steals who God called you to be. Remember, do not allow who you think you are to stop you from becoming who God called you to be. If you are a Christian then you are worthy of his love. There is nothing … Continue reading
A lot of people believe that being vulnerable means that you are weak, when in reality the opposite is true. It takes courage to be vulnerable. You will never live your true self until you can be vulnerable. I have to be honest, I don’t know any other way to be as I have always been that way. I was watching an Oprah Show on OWN and she was interviewing Dr. Brené Brown author of … Continue reading
I was watching one of the Oprah Super Soul Sundays Shows on OWN and she was interviewing Dr. Robin Smith, author of the book Hungry. She talked about being emotionally anorexic and I was like now that is a powerful statement. So, I then thought about being spiritually anorexic using the same analogy. What do people who are anorexic do? They starve themselves because of a lie that they believe within themselves that they are … Continue reading
There are so many people who believe that following Christ keeps you in bondage and they just want to be free but that is so far from the truth. Bondage comes when we sin. We will be the most free when we are living fully for Christ. Any choices you make that involve any kind of sin create a bondage within your mind and soul. It is this bondage that will tear you down. Many … Continue reading
As I look at my life, I am 41 years old and I have to ask will my life even matter when I am gone? My goal is to make the changes I need to make so that I leave my footprint in this world. Are you leaving a footprint? Will your life even matter if you died today? I hope you really think about that question because we all can get so bogged down … Continue reading
As I look at life and the people around me I hear many people say that my life is good enough. What people don’t realize is that a good enough life is the enemy of God’s purpose because God’s purpose is the best possible way to live. If you know without a doubt that you are living within God’s purpose for your life then that is awesome! Keep doing what you are doing but I … Continue reading
When I say the word prison what do you think of? You think of a cell that holds people who have done things wrong right? But what if I told you that many people who have never done anything wrong are in their own prison because of their past? This prison may not have bars but it is just as powerful. I talk a lot about the past in my articles because I believe our … Continue reading
