What’s Your Reason?
On Sunday, Pastor wrapped up our journey through the book of Habakkuk. And what a journey it has been. Habakkuk began the book by asking God the tough questions. He then had to stand ready to receive the answer that God had for him. I don’t know about you, but it can be a challenge to hear a response that you did not anticipate. Habakkuk handles it in stride. In Habakkuk 3:17-19, we get to witness a wonderful relationship. Although Habakkuk has been angry with God…although he has been frustrated by the trials and tribulations that have threatened to overtake him, he continues to talk to God. I just have…

Actively Engaged In The Work
Happy Sunday folks!!!! Let me just tell you that I wore myself out yesterday. I got up bright and early to complete my Saturday morning walk with Bible Study Mama and my cousins. The morning was cool. A definite sign that fall was on the way. All the rain the past couple of weeks caused my grass to grow. Even though I had finished my official exercise for the day, I could not pass up the cooler temperatures. I decided to go ahead and mow my yard. If you have read previous blogs, you may be familiar with my love/hate relationship with mowing my yard. It definitely saves me money…

Satisfying My Appetite
My greed, while I was in college, helped start my pitfall into credit card debt. Now when I say greed, I know you are thinking about a materialistic pull to have all the possessions that I want. Like new clothes or home décor. Naw. I am talking about physical greed. Your girl was hungry. I ventured over to Subway with two friends of mine. Side note: I was a lady that lunched throughout my college experience. Back to the story. We pulled open the door, and there, right beside the entrance was a sweet lady with an even sweeter offer. We could get our submarine sandwiches for free. There was…

Jesus In Our Midst
For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them. Matthew 18:20 Wednesday night Refresh Bible study began as it typically does. Pastor gave pertinent announcements and then began to dive into the lesson. He shared the scripture that was the focus of lesson. He started talking about why the scripture was powerful. And then…nothing. My TV was frozen, and the spinning loop began to play on the screen. I closed the app on the TV and went to my phone hoping that I had not missed too much. The good news is that I had not missed a thing. The…

Trading Spaces And Fixer-Uppers
It’s me again. Back with another story of my eternal fight to be every woman. I really think that people should try to do as much for themselves as possible. No one likes a person who does not even try. So, I will try. Against every odd. Bible Study Mama engrained it in me to be as independent as possible. Honey, she kicked me out of the nest while I was screaming to get back in. Now listen, I do not fail all the time. But when I do fail, it is spectacular. Today’s tantalizing tale actually involves Bible Study Mama. When I bought my house, I fancied myself to…

It’s All In Me…But It’s Really Not
I am a pretty independent chick. Asking for help is not a strong point. My apartment in Houston was on the third floor. No elevator. When I went shopping, I was very conscientious. I had no intention of making two trips up three flights of stairs. I would be a bag lady. Weighted down but determined to make it to the top. I had made a quick trip to Target after work. My apartment was missing something. My spidey senses began to tingle when I walked by a bookcase. I had to have it. But that was not the only item that I picked up during that particular quick trip. …
