I was riding down the road the other day and I saw a billboard that read, “After you die, you go to meet GOD,” then it was followed by a 1-800 number. My guess is that it was an evangelistic effort to encourage people to live differently today. While the intent is good, it falls... Continue Reading →
A perspective I have been enjoying recently is the idea of the Lord inviting us into His greater story by making us letters read of all men, as Paul writes about in the book of 2 Corinthians. The question is, are we willing to be a chapter in His story (history)? Can He use us... Continue Reading →
I read an article recently written by a Black woman, and her subject was why she no longer wanted to be identified as a “Strong Black Woman”. I am so grateful that my Heavenly Father has blessed me with sister love, which compelled to read it. To summarize, she stated that the pressure to always... Continue Reading →

Then there are the horrific fates often met by people fleeing these atrocities. And then there is this beautiful Super Flower Blood Moon that I watched with my youngest son last night. The timing in the... Continue Reading →
Christ called the Pharisees blind guides because they esteemed the gold in the temple above the temple itself, not understanding that it is the temple which sanctified the gold. This level of blindness is still present today among those who call themselves guides today. Christians are called to be moral guides today however they suffer... Continue Reading →
In order for us to be reconciled to GOD, the differences between us and GOD have to be removed. YAHWEH is already perfect, so we are the ones who need to change. In fact, we need an infusion of His essence so that we can even begin to understand Him. The carnal man by nature... Continue Reading →
The resurrection of Christ introduces the dawn of a new day for man. Christ is called the “last” Adam by the Apostle Paul in his letter to the Corinthians.
