The last week or so I’ve been feeling out of sorts, not really sure how to describe what I was feeling but I felt off. I was feeling like something was missing or I was not doing what I should be doing (and perhaps I wasn’t, shrug). We all have a purpose here on this earth, for some they know sooner than others. For me, I believe I have an understanding of my gifts and how I am to use those gifts while here, but am I truly walking in my purpose? How about you? Do you know your purpose?

This past weekend, I had the pleasure of celebrating the legacy of my grandparents with my cousins. Last week, my grandparents would have been turned 100 years old and in honor of their legacy, we created a documentary spotlighting each of them.

Nowadays we have passwords and codes for everything. We have a passcode for our phone, passwords to get in our computers, passwords for our Netflix account :); everything has a password. The other day I used my mom’s password to get into her account and I instantly thought of the word, access. Our passwords, passcodes, etc give us access to our devices and accounts. Because I had the correct password for my mom’s account I was granted access. As Christians, we often forget about the access we have.
