It’s my last week for my media detox. In the short time I have shut down social media and television, I have found more peace and acceptance than ever before in my life. I am just allowing whatever it is, letting it be and that is how peace comes, being drama free. I am soContinue reading “Detox Day 24”

Lord Hear My Cry
From May-August of 2021, I cried more than I ever have in my life. I cried daily, I had cries of pain from grief and losses. My heart and soul were suffering. When I went on my healing journey and attended The Potters House church in Dallas Texas, I cried the entire service. If myContinue reading “Lord Hear My Cry”
Testimony Service
When I was a child growing up in church three times a week, we had a part of the service that was called “testimony”. It was basically where anyone could stand up and share something great that happened to them, a blessing they received, or some wonderful news. After the person told their story, everyoneContinue reading “Testimony Service”
It’s Like Shifting Gears
Some years ago, I downloaded the Kindle app on my phone and with good intentions, I bought some books but never opened or finished them. One of those books was Instinct by one of my favorites, Bishop T.D.Jakes. This week, I realized I had on my Kindle but only had read a couple of chapters.Continue reading “It’s Like Shifting Gears”
Highlights from The Awakened Brain
I’ve set a new record. I finished a book in 2 weeks. First, let me say I’m not a reader. I’ve always had trouble focusing and reading comprehension has never been my cup of tea. I’m a hands-on learner so handing me a book for instruction is never a good idea. So maybe I setContinue reading “Highlights from The Awakened Brain”
It’s A Wonderful Life
Remember the Christmas movie that is a favorite by many, A Wonderful Life? If you’ve seen it then you know that Clarence, the guardian angel takes George down memory lane to show his life in flashback. I don’t know who my Clarence is but I’ve been having flashbacks of my life and I’ve been shockedContinue reading “It’s A Wonderful Life”
Breaking the Cycle of Normal
As we enter into the new year and we say the same thing we say every year “new year, new me”, let me talk to y’all about why the “new year, new me” doesn’t work most of the time. We all have dysfunction. Yes! I have dysfunction and you have dysfunction. You don’t have toContinue reading “Breaking the Cycle of Normal”
The Staircase
In April of 2019, I received a call from a doctor in Nashville, TN to tell me my mother was being put on hospice. That was on a Friday evening before my son graduated from college. The following Wednesday, May 1, my job let me go due of my position was being eliminated. With tear-filledContinue reading “The Staircase”
Joy Comes In The Morning
I’ve heard that verse my entire life. I never really thought about it until recently and I want to share with you how I interpret it for me and maybe for the Psalmist David. For me, it speaks that when we are in a bad place rather than dealing with grief from a loss orContinue reading “Joy Comes In The Morning”
Practice What You Believe
Day 15 of my media detox and I’m 1/2 finished with 2 of my books, “Experiencing God” and “The Awakened Brain”. Both talk about spirituality, one from a religious view and the other from a scientific view. A lot of the views are parallel especially one and that is faith. Since I’ve been reading andContinue reading “Practice What You Believe”
