• Vanity: The Endless Game of Hide and Seek

  

  An Examination of Ecclesiastes 5 “a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together.” (Ecclesiastes 3:5, ESV) Remember the childhood game of hide and seek? One person hides while another searches. The objective is simple: find the person hiding. And once we find them, we celebrate. We’re victorious! And the game…

• The Parable of the Grievous Man

• No Perfect Conditions: Picked, Pruned, and Processed

  

  There are no perfect conditions. In their 2000 hit “Ms. Jackson,” OutKast reminded us, “You can plan a pretty picnic, but you can’t predict the weather.” Imagine choosing the perfect day for a picnic with someone special. You check the forecast, carefully select their favorite foods, and arrange a beautiful setting adorned with tulips and…

• Homeless, Existing & Living on the Street

  

  Consider having to live on the street. Can you even imagine the concrete being your pillow and the wind your blanket? I can. I know all too well. The lowest point might be having to defecate outside and use the bushes for what Charmin toilet paper was purposed for. Or maybe being a woman experiencing…

• The Encounter at Remnant Ministry: Am I Trippin’?

  The day was, June 24, 2026. I had an encounter. Or maybe I was just stoned. Though some believe marijuana is a drug, I believe it’s a natural plant which grows from the ground for the benefit of healing;  Though, marijuana being considering a drug or a healing plan isn’t the subject up for debate.…

• Women Who Cry

  (Written June 3, 2025) I saw a woman cry. It made me want to cry too — but I didn’t. Not physically. I wish I could cry out to Jesus, but I feel like my tear ducts have been soaked up. I’m all cried out. I used all my tears in the last season of…

• Chopping Wood: The Appraiser

  At first, I thought I was still in what Pastor Sarah Jakes Roberts calls the “dangerous prayer.” As discussed in previous blogs, the prayer is this: Father God, Please remove from my life anyone or anything that cannot stand in Your presence. Strip away everything that is not of You, so that all that remains…

• Tabitha, Arise: Your Life Matters

  (Old to me, new to you. From July 28, 2025) It’s no coincidence that I just completed a personal three-day fast, much like Esther before she approached the king, risking her life to save her people. It’s no coincidence that in this same spirit of boldness, my three-year-old daughter, without prompting, often grabs my face…

• Holy Ground: Public Repentance

  It’s like someone who cannot swim. God pushed me into the deep. “I was pushed hard, so that I was falling, but the LORD helped me.” (Psalm 118:13, ESV). He pushed me so that I was falling into the deep end of the pool. I guess this type of repentance and pruning is me learning how…
