Don’t look back.

The reason some can’t move forward is because they refuse to let the past go. They still have the same mindset they had ten, twenty, thirty years ago. You have to let go of what was, in order to fully appreciate the present. If God delivered a person from a situation, why would they want…

January nights: Dance of the Northern Lights

Hi everyone! I’m back with another sleep story! I’m hoping to create a sleep story every month (fingers crossed). Anyway, lately I’ve fallen in love with the idea of experiencing the northern lights. From what I’ve read, it’s wonderful and celestial. I’ve created a sleep story of what I imagine it may be (at least…

A good deed a day.

Happy New Year  So, yesterday I was inside of a store shopping. Another customer asked if I could get an item for her. I am maybe a couple of inches taller than her. I actually had to get on my tip toes to get the item myself. Shubricca said, in my head… “You don’t work…

Part 2 Burger and fries, and steak and potatoes. Some people live for that happy ending, but I’ve learned to be content with a happy medium.

Part 1 Third graders are brutal “I haven’t always been this way- despised by society, broke (in more ways than one), inadequate, and discarded… like toilet paper after a good sh.” “Shhh, Ms. Angeles said, interrupting Aspen. “You can’t use that language Ms. Lewis,” Ms. Angeles said. “Oh, my bad. My bad kids,” Aspen said….

I choose to believe.

I choose to believe the opposite of what I see. I choose to believe that God is working on my behalf. You see, I’ve taken two too many loses, but I believe that through Christ, I win. I’ve been waiting for a breakthrough for so long, but I choose to believe that God’s grace is…

Before you give up, listen.

Are you tired of moving two steps forward, only to be pushed two steps back? Does it feel like you’re stuck between a rock and a hard place? Are you at a point where you feel hopeless when it comes to fulfilling your dreams. Maybe you feel as though you can’t catch a break, and…
