And be not conformed to this world…be transformed…prove what is good…~ Romans 12:2 As we all know it can be difficult to “not” conform to this world. If we feel as if we don’t “fit in” it’s probably a good thing! Conforming to this world means putting many “things” in higher priority than God. Those […]
I’ve been so richly blessed by so many wonderful and unique messengers throughout my journey. I’m still amazed and humbled by the sheer magnitude that God delivers to each of us when we are willing to serve Him. So this is just a post to say “THANK YOU” to all of those out there who […]
My mouth is filled with your praise, declaring your splendor all day long. ~Psalm 71:8 A righteous tongue speaks to those in a sovereign way to enlighten those who choose to hear the messages of Saints instead of sorrows.

Letting go of […]
“What will they think?” Do you ever ask yourself this question when you contemplate a stronger commitment to God’s plan for your life? Who are THEY?….really, I wonder. Who are “they” that make us so afraid and intimidated to follow God’s loving plan for us? How did “they” become more powerful than God in our […]
The heart knows where to lead us once we recognize the process of letting go. Pressures of our conscious and unmistakable memories keep becoming our nemesis. Every day is another opportunity to make a decision about our calling and hear the voice so deep within us that we must act today, not tomorrow. Prepare a […]
We’ve all heard the saying “thank God for unanswered prayers”, right? Well, the same goes for closed doors perceived as missed opportunities.
