Operation: Escape to Mexico-Part Two

**All names in the story have been changed. After my failed attempt at launching Live Love Dream in January 2019 and the realization that God had already warned me four days prior during my prayer time that I was going to lose it, I was in utter shock and awe. In shock, because that was […]
I CAN’T DO THIS!

I CAN’T DO THIS! Nope…I can’t. This season God has me in right now has to be the most challenging ever and I don’t think I can get through this. Well…that’s precisely where I was last night…knowing I’d come too far to turn back…but absolutely clueless about how to move forward! Check out this week’s […]
God Told Me NOT to Go to Bible Study!

God wants to challenge you to step outside the box of religion and your own mental reasoning this year and be led by the His Spirit! He wants you to be in tune with Holy Spirit and don’t reject the steps or actions God may have you take to draw closer to Him or reject […]
Who Are You Giving Yourself To?

What have you been offering man that God has been waiting for you to submit to Him? That was the question I was confronted with today and the same question He wants to ask you. Check out the video for more…And I know it’s a bit long but if you can bear with me I […]
Run Your Race…

Just a word for those of you who may be feeling a bit anxious about setting goals for the new year or feeling like you’re running out of time! I pray this is a blessing to you as it was to me. ***Correction: At the 2:04 mark, I meant to say December 2021…Not January 2021…Oops!
What If You Can’t Go?

When the Holy Spirit dropped this title on me I wasn’t exactly sure which way He wanted to go with this. I actually got halfway through another piece when He intervened and took me down a completely new path. I realized that the title He gave me “What If You Can’t Go?” was just a […]
Take it Away From Me, Lord!

As the Lord started to give me what to share this week, something I originally published back in 2009 came up. I mean, I totally forgot this existed until one day I was doing a google search of my name and it popped up. This was my very first attempt at blogging and the first […]
Give Me a Clean Heart…

I love all the new worship and contemporary Christian music but sometimes it’s those “oldies but goodies” that hit the spot. This summer as I was seeking God and desiring to come closer to Him this song came to mind. The adult choir, aka “The Inspirational Choir,” at the baptist church I grew up in […]
Now What?

For the past few days, I had been feeling like I was in a rut when it comes to writing. I don’t know if it’s because I was trying to force myself to be on some type of schedule and not letting the spirit just flow or if this is just part of the process. […]
Tell Them…

Hey Fam! This weekend as I was preparing for the launch of this blog, I sat on my sofa and asked God, “What do you want to say to your people?” I sat quietly for a good little bit to listen for what He’d have to say. As I waited, my waiting turned into worship. […]
Operation: Escape to Mexico

When I moved back to Chicago in the fall of 2018 after a devastating setback, to say that I was disappointed is an understatement. I was angry with myself for being so naive and gullible, but also so needy. I was dazed and confused. I felt like a total and complete loser. I had always […]
What More Can We Do Now?

Hey Fam, Are you feeling challenged or discouraged today? Are you questioning what God had called you to? Today God reminded me that our testimonies are not only to share with others but to encourage ourselves during those times when we may feel discouraged or challenged. Today as I was battling a case of Imposter […]
