I'm Back in a New Way!

This year I want to use this blog in 2 different ways.

 1) To reflect on PAST feelings, triumphs and defeats. Last year I made several videos about what was going on in life. Now I want to start posting them!

 2) To share something I am CURRENTLY learning in the Word.

 I hope that this is a blessing to others in their endeavor to please God. 

 Psalm 84:5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you,
    in whose heart are the highways to Zion.

But as months passed, and conversations looped, and counseling continued to be refus...

Happily Ever After?

 I was speaking with a friend the other night, and she commented that she didn’t remember the last time I was so happy. The reason she couldn’t remember was because any sort of happiness I had experienced previously had been so fleeting. She and I had met at the end of 2020. My whole life had gone through restructuring, so 2021 seemed promising.  Purposeful but painful is what 2021 turned out to be. Rather than height to height, 2021 traversed heights to valleys. What was hopeful collapsed. What was stable shifted to shaky. And what was foreign and unknown became my safety zone. I went from the familiar streets of DC to the mountains of North Carolina. I went from being one of many almost everywhere I went, to one of the only African Americans in the area. It was hard. Injustice was real, and the marriage I had been hoping for had imploded. 2022 brought new everything. New job. New place to live. New title: single mom. Constant change in which I found it hard to find more than...
