This morning I had the opportunity to watch/listen to the sermon of the #royalwedding, and oh what a treat it was. The Most Rev. Michael Bruce Curry reminded us of the power of love! Scripture tells us, “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres (1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NIV).” If we all walked in love what would this world be…

Evolving
I started my blog about a year ago obeying the call from God to share my story, my story includes my experiences, life lessons, as well as revelations along the way. The purpose of Bridgette Breaking Barriers is to encourage others to break barriers in their own lives, while I am transparent in the uncomfortable moments of my life. The process of starting the blog was a big leap of faith for me, as I’m a very private person, me moving forward is a testament to my evolution as a woman. To think of where I was to where I am now, I’m truly grateful, but I’m even more excited…
