I’m a teacher! Why and how I switched careers in my later thirties :)
When God Redirects! It all started with some discontent. Ain't nothing like a lil holy discontent to mess up your life 🙂 . Allow me to take you back a bit. I quit college in 2006 because I was pregnant and single and I just couldn't manage the tragedy that was now my life. My …

I’m A Prophet… Now what? From revelation to acceptance.
I know, I know. I can hardly even admit it to myself sometimes. I can hear y'all saying, "well how she went from being a journalist to a prophet..." Same thing I ask myself. I'm a teacher now too... But hear me out. I'd stopped blogging because I was getting weary and confused. I graduated …

To 20-year-old me: “I saw the end.”
Dear sweet broken-hearted girl, You are so smart and talented and brave. And above all else you are beautiful. You are a beautiful soul. No one has ever told you that. But if they did, you probably wouldn't accept it. You spend all your days avoiding mirrors just tearing yourself apart. Your not as petite, …
While You Wait… (Be of Good Courage)
Remember.... This resurrection life you received from God is not a timid, grave-tending life. It’s adventurously expectant, greeting God with a childlike “What’s next, Papa?” God’s Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are.

Why Can’t I Find A Good Man? – Confronting Brokenness and Wrong Thinking.
I usually don't like to talk much about relationships - romantic relationships to be exact. I'm single and quite enjoying my season so I try to focus on learning to be present and thankful, while maximizing where God has me. I am quite enjoying the gift of Keciah. I have peace. I have joy. But all around …

God, Is That You? (Hearing God pt. III)
Part III - Ways In Which God Speaks I'm way overdue. I know. I've been procrastinating, finishing college (yay!) job hunting, prepping for graduation and the works. Let's just say the past month has been quite the roller coaster ride (in a good way) and I've been enjoying every minute of it. So didn't nobody …
God, Is That You? (Hearing God Pt. II)
Part II - Conditioning and Positioning Ourselves to Hear From God. So as promised (although I'm a little late but who's watching?) here's the second installment of "God, is that you?" Now I'm no pastor. Or teacher. I'm just a girl who likes to blog. I'm definitely not the resident expert on the Bible or …
