Seeing is Disbelieving (2020)
“ Revealing the truth is like lighting a match, it can bring light or it can set your world on fire.” Wiz Khalifa The loss of an ideal, for me, […]
Jehovah-Jireh
I didn’t want hominy again. In fact I felt like if I had to eat one more bite I would vomit. At nine, I did not realize the reasons behind the third day of having to eat the yellow, round kernels of grit I was trying to focus on chewing and swallowing. I was just tired of it. I wanted […]
The Messenger
I was around seven or eight when I realized that there was two way communication between us and God. I knew we could pray to Him and He would hear us, I just didn’t know He could send messages down to us.There was a Jack and Jill bathroom that separated my moms room from the one I shared with my […]

I am not sure when I first learned about God. I have no memories that exclude Him. Though I was raised in church from an infant that is not where I learned about the character and presence of Yahweh.

How heartbreaking this day has been for her. In my sadness though I have new hope. Hope with the arrest. Hope in the prominent Christian leaders who have chosen […]

If it doesn’t make you angry, If it doesn’t make you want to move or speak, Than you stand with the bigots who slayed him. Your indifference […]
Overcommer
This guy right here is the biggest dreamer you will ever meet. He has big, swiss mountain size dreams. He started writing rap lyrics at 19 as a way to fight through the emotions he had dealing with depression and a physical disability. His lyrics not only woke up something creatively beautiful in his soul they woke up us, as […]

Birthday Breakfast
We made brunch for Tori’s birthday. The whole tribe (and a few adopted members) swarmed her home for a few hours. Ironically as I was thinking about what to say about my oldest I came across a draft in my blog that I had written for her birthday ten years ago. How crazy (and perfect) is time?! To my 16 […]
