the moment that makes the difference

Some things you can’t write even though you really wish you could. Some things you can’t speak even though they suffocate you and threaten to cut off the oxygen supply to your heart. Some things you have to find another way. In these moments, I’m thankful for my Father. To Him, I can write. To...

My wailing mother…

When you said, “but i prayed all night”, I realized I was getting to see the humanity beneath your cape. Because sometimes, even Superman needs help putting his cape back on.

WHY I WRITE…

The last time I took up these pages to write was………. TWO YEARS AGO!! Wow! So much has happened since then. But then again, this was never meant to be a space about life updates. Writing and reading words to me is therapy. The first recipient of the gift these pages bring is ME. When...

Losing Ezra

I wrote this piece since June of 2022 but only just realized that it had been sitting in my drafts. So, Time to release it! From me to you, a very intimate piece… I’m lying in bed with my husband. We’re cuddling and everything is really great. He asks me: “What’s wrong?” I say: “Nothing!”...

Worship As a heart posture

Do we even understand what it means for worship to be a heart posture? My heart bows down in reverence to You. I acknowledge that You are my Creator. That before I was here, I was with You. That You formed me just for this. That You imagined all my days and what they would...
