    Love is

    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…

    Step Up Your Faith!

    Last week I had the opportunity to travel to Dubai in the UAE. If I had to describe my experience in one word it would probably be, breathtaking . With each moment, each experience I was blown away that I was even able to experience it.

One of my favorite podcast is Women Evolve with Sarah Jakes Roberts. I absolutely love her; she is so authentic and relevant. On the show, she joking speaks of a ministry called Mind Your Business Ministries. In this ministry, we focus only on our own business and not anyone else’s. It’s so easy to get caught up in other things and not focus on your own…

    He has RISEN!

    There’s something powerful about someone that would give up their life for you. Man, that’s some strong love. Every time I think of what God did for us by sending his son, Jesus to die on the cross for our sins; I’m amazed. He did that just for me…just for you. Jesus has risen! “He is not here; he has risen!” (Luke‬ ‭24:6‬ NIV‬‬). When Jesus rose from the dead he had all power. As a follower of Christ you have access to that power, no longer do you have to be ruled by fear, sin, etc. What do you need to rise above that is still holding you back?…
