    Stay In Your Lane

    I have about a 35 – 45 minute commute to and from work each day. In an effort to make good use of my time (and to not focus on the fact that I’m in traffic when it happens), I started listening to podcasts. 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…

    This morning as I was checking my social media pages, I saw a post I posted a few years back honoring my grandmother on her birthday.

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for everything that you continue to do for us and through us. I pray that this blog not just be a release for me, but that it to be a way to touch your people in a way…

    Move Forward!

    Let’s talk about how God will place ideas in your heart, it’s easy to think of ideas, the hard part is actually putting those ideas to paper and to action. God truly has blessed me with the gift of ideas. I can come up with all types of ideas, but when it comes time to putting those ideas to work, I get stuck or get consumed with other things that take my focus from the vision God gives to me. I believe that God is calling his people to more in 2017. He wants me and you to be and do more, this includes all parts of our lives, work,…
