Have you ever believed the lie that you needed to clean yourself up before coming to God?

In my latest blog post, You Don’t Wash Before the Bath: The Scandalous Grace of Jesus, we are exposing this lie. Here’s⤵️ a preview🫣

🛁 The Gospel Isn’t for the Clean—It’s for the Dirty. You don’t wash before the bath.

And you don’t purify yourself before coming to Jesus. That’s not the Gospel—that’s works wrapped in self-righteousness.

Truth bomb:
📖 “While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” — Romans 5:8

Jesus didn’t wait for us to get it together.
He moved toward us in the mess, not after it.

Consider the woman caught in adultery that stood guilty. And yet, Jesus, the only one with the right to condemn chose mercy.

📖 “Neither do I condemn you; go, and sin no more.” — John 8:11

Grace first. Then transformation.

Friend, we’ve all missed the mark.
📖 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” — Romans 3:23

And if we could make ourselves holy, there’d be no need for the Cross✝️. But we couldn’t—so Jesus came.

📖 “For our sake He made Him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.” — 2 Corinthians 5:21

Jesus doesn’t save the made up, polished version of us. He saves the broken, desperate, doubting version of us. The one crying out, “Help me, Lord.”

The sinless Lamb of God bore our sins, paid our debt, and offered us what we could never earn: grace, forgiveness, and sonship. We have been set free from a debt we could never repay.

So if you’re stuck thinking, “I’ll come to God once I clean up…”

Let that lie die at the foot of the Cross.
Because the work is finished!

🩸 The blood of Jesus is the bath.
💥 The grace of Jesus is the invitation.
🙌🏾 The forgiveness of Jesus is available.
🕊 And the power of Jesus will transform your life.

Come as you are. You won’t leave the same!

💬 Has the Gospel changed your life? Let me know in the comments.

🔁 Share this with someone who needs to hear the Good News: You don’t have to fix yourself first.

For years, I didn’t partake in the Holy Communion and I suffered. Why? Because I was told I had to be walking a certain way or risk judgment. So I withheld myself from the very meal meant to bless me.

Friend, Jesus never said, “Do this in remembrance of you” He said, “Do this in remembrance of Me.” (1 Cor. 11:24)

As believers we have right-standing with God because of the blood of Jesus, 💁🏾‍♀️which is why we partake.

“For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” 2 Corinthians‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬.

𖧷‭

“Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭1‬.

𖧷The Lord’s Supper isn’t about your perfection—it’s about His finished work.
𖧷It’s not a reminder of your sin.
𖧷It’s a declaration of your healing, your wholeness, your inheritance in Christ.

Here is the thing ➡️ The Bread and the Cup are not the same—Paul said, many are sick, weak, and die early because they haven’t discerned the Body. (1 Cor. 11:29–30). This isn’t because they are unworthy just unaware.

The Communion is not religious routine; it’s a revelation of Jesus. It’s an offensive act of spiritual warfare—We are storming the gates of hell declaring healing and liberation!

When you eat the Bread, you remember His body broken so yours can be made whole.

When you drink the Cup, you proclaim your freedom through His blood.

This table is set in the presence of your enemies (Ps. 23:5), and you don’t come empty—you come hungry.

🕊 The early church broke bread from house to house.
🔥 The two on the road to Emmaus recognized Jesus when they partook.
💥 A Canaanite woman saw her daughter delivered by a crumb.

So imagine what happens when you partake with revelation.

Let’s stop letting fear and false teachings keep us from the feast. Partake worthily not by looking at yourself, but by fixing your eyes on the One who finished it all.

Remember, you are in Christ. You are seated at the table and you are blessed!

Who does God help?

“For assuredly He does not give help to angels, but He gives help to the seed of Abraham.”—Hebrews 2:16 (LSB)
⠀
Pause and reflect 🤔 on that: God didn’t extend help to fallen angels. But He helps us. It's pretty incredible.
⠀
👑 Jesus didn’t come to save angels—He came for us. Those who believe in Him, who trust in the finished work of the Cross, are called the seed of Abraham—the children of promise.

We peer into the cosmic battle of the ages in my latest blog post, Help Is Here: Receiving the Rescue Reserved for the Redeemed. (Link in bio).

⠀
Here’s a sobering truth:
Help can be present and still not received. Deliverance can be available and yet refused.
⠀
📌Salvation is a gift—but it requires our yes.
📌The Holy Spirit is our Helper—but He desires our yielded heart.
⠀
You can have access to everything and still live like you’re spiritually bankrupt. It’s like having millions in the bank but choosing to live like a pauper.
⠀
God sets a table for us in the presence of our enemies (Ps. 23:5). But He won’t force us to eat.

A stunning reality is from the very beginning that God works the miraculous in the midst of adversity.
⠀
⬇️

💡Here’s the beauty: Even after chaos entered the world (Gen. 1:2), God still moved forward with His plan. Right in the enemy’s domain, He brought forth light, life, and order.
⠀

➡️ That’s what He’s still doing through Christ.
He helps the redeemed.
He helps those who trust.
He helps those who believe.
⠀
“For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ… and if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s offspring, heirs according to promise.” Gal. 3:27–29.
⠀
Friend, the adversity 🔥 that has come your way, is the very place the Lord is doing a profound work and not solely in you but through you, so those connected to you can experience deliverance.

📣 So be encouraged today:
You are blood-bought.
You are Spirit-filled.
You are covenant-carrying.
You are helped!
⠀
Rest in His promise.
Walk in His grace.

⠀
✝️ “God is good and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” (Heb. 11:6)

Let’s be real—following Jesus isn’t always easy. But you know what makes it harder? Choosing comfort over calling. Settling for less forfeits His best—not because God hasn’t provided, but because fear, impatience, and weariness cloud our trust.

I’ve been there. Maybe you have too.

When we settle:
• We trade peace for temporary relief.
• We confuse comfort with God’s presence.
• We fear His timing is too late.
• We crave outcomes over intimacy.
• We compare our process to others’ highlights.
• We doubt our worthiness of His best.
• We shrink back instead of surrendering fully.

But friend—what are we missing when we settle?

💛 The fullness of His presence.
💛 The beauty of co-laboring with Christ.
💛 The refining of our character.
💛 The generational fruit of obedience.
💛 The testimony of His faithfulness!

Abraham & Sarah remind us: even in missteps, God’s promise remains. Ishmael was born out of haste, but Isaac came by His hand, His timing, His way. Their failures are not the final word—His faithfulness is.

And the same is true for you. 🙌🏾

The enemy fights hard to keep us settling because of what we lose. But beloved—what might shift if you fully surrendered today? What could God birth on the other side of obedience?

📖 Journal with me:
• Where am I tempted to settle?
• What “counterfeits” have I chosen?
• How does Abraham & Sarah’s story encourage me?
• What truth of God’s character do I need to hold?
• What would full surrender look like right now?

🔥 Ready to press into His best?
Drop a “YES LORD” if your heart is leaning toward surrender!

Read the full post, study the Scriptures (Romans 4, Hebrews 6), and journal through His invitation to trust again. Link in bio ⬆️ Download’s in the UpperRoom Chat💁🏾‍♀️.

𝒜𝓃𝒹𝓇ℯ𝒶, 𝓎ℴ𝓊𝓇 𝒹𝒾𝓈𝒸𝒾𝓅𝓁ℯ𝓈𝒽𝒾𝓅 𝓈𝒾𝓈𝓉ℯ𝓇 𝒾𝓃 𝒷ℯ 𝒻𝒶𝒾𝓉𝒽!

What if your waiting season is actually holy ground? What if the trials you face are opportunities for growth instead of signs of failure?

God is always working — cultivating faith, refining your heart, and aligning us with His Kingdom purpose. 𝒯𝒽ℯ 𝓂𝒾𝓇𝒶𝒸𝓁ℯ 𝒾𝓈𝓃’𝓉 𝒿𝓊𝓈𝓉 𝒾𝓃 𝓉𝒽ℯ ℴ𝓊𝓉𝒸ℴ𝓂ℯ; 𝒾𝓉’𝓈 𝒾𝓃 𝓉𝒽ℯ 𝓅𝓇ℴ𝒸ℯ𝓈𝓈.

In my latest blog post, Stewarding the Miracle: Walking in Faith, Waiting in Wonder, we explore what it means to trust God in every season—even when the answers aren’t visible in the natural.

From recognizing that salvation itself is a 𝓂𝒾𝓇𝒶𝒸𝓁ℯ to understanding the purpose of 𝓉𝓇𝒾𝒶𝓁𝓈, this post encourages us to see process as holy ground. Together, we’ll explore how to steward our faith, align with God’s Kingdom purpose, embrace the beauty of the process, and see waiting as God working mightily.

A glimpse from the post:

We miss the “answered prayer” because God’s solutions often come in seed form. We expect to see the apricot tree when the Lord sowed the apricot seed. Remember, Israel wanted a king and thought he would rule in a manner that altered their political system when, in actuality, the King of kings came as a Child, ushering in an entirely new creation—an eternal Kingdom with unlimited power and great glory. They didn’t get it; may we not miss Him.

Here are a few takeaways:
🌿Recognize that salvation is proof you’re already living in a miracle.
🌿Sow prayers in faith, even when you don’t see the answer.
🌿Be intentional and faithful in stewarding the miracle you presently possess
🌿Trust God’s timing — His plans are never delayed.
🌿Embrace trials as refining moments that draw you closer to Him.
🌿 Respond with Faith in the Process
🌿Align your heart with His eternal purpose.

Friend, the Gardener, our Abba is faithful. Don’t dig up what He’s planted. Trust Him, steward your season well, and delight in His presence as you witness the next miracle unfold!

God is unlike any other, wholly set apart, and in His wisdom and prudence, He has set us apart unto Himself.

Oh, friends, it is splendid, yet it is easy to fall back into commonness.

In my own walk, I’ve stumbled when my heart becomes entangled in the jaws of comparison, the lure of competition, the pull of comfort and convenience, the fear of man and people-pleasing, or the ache of insecurity.

There are times I’ve sought control, allowed offense and bitterness to seep in, grown spiritually apathetic, especially in seasons of weariness, or even envied the ease others seem to experience in the world. All of these marks reside in the flesh. When I wrestle with them, holiness feels elusive, and I slip into a life marked by compromise and commonness rather than consecration.

Can you relate?

You may be asking what the connection between commonness and holiness is. A few years ago, I wrote a post called “The Holy & The Common in 2020” (link in bio). The article’s basis was to demonstrate how the opposite of 𝒽ℴ𝓁𝒾𝓃ℯ𝓈𝓈 𝒾𝓈𝓃’𝓉 𝓈𝒾𝓃; 𝒾𝓉’𝓈 𝒸ℴ𝓂𝓂ℴ𝓃𝓃ℯ𝓈𝓈.

It happens when we forget that we are not crazy or given to the chaos of this world but called; not purchased by the meager like money or gold, but bought with a price: the precious blood of Jesus. It happens when we bypass the truth—we are not our own.

God is distinct, and it is Christ who marks us as His own and sets us apart!

And this is where we often miss it — holiness isn’t something we achieve through striving but something we enter into through surrender. It’s not about perfection but about proximity. Holiness is an invitation to draw near—to walk in an intimate relationship with Jesus.

There has been a change, and it is the Blood. The command to be holy is wrought in the finished work of Jesus, not our effort.

When we keep the Cross at the forefront of our minds, we remember that we are seated in heavenly places and seek things from above. And we bear fruit accordingly by the Spirit because we rest in the Vine.

Our identity is no longer self, it is in the Person of Jesus. Amen🙏🏾🙌🏾💛

Hello Friends 👋🏾,
It’s been a little while. Over these past few weeks, I’ve been walking through a health journey — more details to come — but I can say this with full assurance: God is so tender, sweet, and faithful. 🌿

In the quiet places of trial, He has been planting and cultivating seeds I didn’t even realize were being sown. And now, by His grace, I’m beginning to see the first fruits press forth, His countenance in the waiting, His hand in the healing, and His strength in the stretching.

Today, I offer you a small glimpse, a simple reflection gathered from my time sitting with Him. May it bless you as He has so deeply blessed me. ✨

𝒲𝒶𝒾𝓉𝒾𝓃𝑔 & 𝒟ℯ𝓁𝒶𝓎𝓈

𝒮ℴ𝓂ℯ𝓉𝒾𝓂ℯ𝓈, we aren’t waiting on God, but rather, He is waiting on us to…

—Lay down those things that keep us from Him.

—Turn away from the temptation that entangles us and the sin that entraps us.

—Release the worry and anxious toil in our minds in exchange for trust and believing Him.

—Walk in full obedience to Him, not taking things into our own hands.

—Pray, Ask, and Trust Him with the next steps, especially if the answer is Wait or No.
Remembering, His, “No” always means a better “Yes.”

𝒮ℴ𝓂ℯ𝓉𝒾𝓂ℯ𝓈, we aren’t hearing the Lord or seeing things change because we didn’t respond to His word of correction. But we can right now, and we should.

Obedience is not optional—it’s essential!

He has so much for us, however, God doesn’t reward rebellion. If we don’t heed His correction we are in the crosshairs of His discipline. If we won’t listen to His voice; He can’t trust us with the blessing.

“For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭12‬:‭6‬‭

𝒮ℴ𝓂ℯ𝓉𝒾𝓂ℯ𝓈, we are so fixated on us, what we want to happen or change and in our anticipation for outcome can forget the story is about Him. He holds the pen✍️🏾.

Are you constantly pulled in various directions only to realize you’ve drifted from His presence?

The enemy isn’t always loud. Sometimes he lures with a scroll 📱, a notification 🔔 , a sudden “to-do” ✅, a sudden bombardment of anxious, racing, worrisome thoughts, or more insidious is the good thing we received by grace but have somehow managed to turn it into a place of striving—making it a weight🪨.

The enemy entices you with distraction and then condemns you because of the distraction; don’t let him. He is a liar!

CRUSH🔨 the serpent’s 🐍 head by reframing distraction.

Instead of seeing it as lost time and a cosmic failure, see it as a divine invitation to build an altar! By the Spirit we can give glory to God and be strengthened by Him amid distraction!

Fight Back with Holy Intention:

• Identify and Pause. Distraction can be a trigger but we can use it as a call to a place of intention. Let it become a signal, not a stumble.

• Erect an altar: Not a literal one, but a heart posture. The natural instinct is to keep scrolling or spiraling. Break the cycle. Be intentional. Disrupt through stillness. Right in the middle of the chaos; place another stone in honor of God.

• Behold. In the moment of temptation, or mental wandering— acknowledge His presence. Look for Him. Look to Him because He is there!

• Offer a sacrifice of praise. Whisper, “Jesus, You are worthy,” or “Jesus, help me,” or simply “Jesus.” His name carries authority, power, and declares victory.

• Return to the Word: Don’t let anything steal the moment of this encounter. Go further. Fight for time with Him. You’ve come too far in the process to walk away without a blessing: Let Him replenish and strengthen you. Take the LORD with you by means of the Word.

Remember, Jesus is greater than the pull of distraction and more satisfying than the noise.

Let’s reclaim our attention, fix our affections, ending the enemy’s assault on our minds, one stone at a time.

Imagine how the atmosphere would shift if every distraction we utilized as the doorway to a deeper devotion to God.

Have you found the Treasure on your journey?

Friend, let me tell you: Jesus is the Treasure.
Not only is He the prize, but He is the promise: you can walk uprightly in a world marked by chaos, compromise, and confusion.

In my latest blog post, Reign in Life: The Paths of Righteousness, we unpack seven powerful scriptures that reveal the beauty and blessing found in walking with Him.

In Christ…
→ The path is level
→ The peace is unshakable
→ The justice is divine
→ The journey is eternal
→ The light grows brighter
→ The Treasure is Him

Here’s a promise worth clinging to:

“But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, which shines brighter and brighter until full day.” Proverbs 4:18.

Even when the world grows dark, the light of Christ only shines stronger. As we trust in Jesus—the Righteous One—we begin to reign in every area of our lives.

“…Much more will those who receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man Jesus Christ.” Romans 5:17.

So, what does righteousness look like in real life? It’s not about perfection—it’s about posture.

᪥ Surrendering to Jesus instead of striving
᪥ Choosing rest when the world demands hustle
᪥ Trusting God’s justice over reacting in your flesh
᪥ Holding peace when panic tempts you
᪥ Letting go of false identities to live fully in Christ
᪥ Reflecting light instead of fighting for attention
᪥ It looks like JESUS

And when you walk this path👣…

• Your eyes open to deeper truths
• Your steps are ordered with purpose
• Your pace slows—and your heart finds rest
• Your identity is rooted in Christ, not culture
• Your life shines for others still searching in the dark

Let this encourage you today:

• You are not alone on this path
• You are not forgotten in the valley
• You are not powerless in the waiting
• You are not unworthy of the promise
• You are never too far to be restored

Beloved, allow His presence guide you fully.

Let’s walk this path together—slowly, surrendered, and full of faith🕊️

What if God’s next thing for you isn’t something new—but a deeper return to the One thing?

What if Jesus calls you to a season of stillness, quietness, and holiness… in the middle of full bloom?

In my latest blog post, The Sacred Work of Stillness in Full Bloom, I share how God interrupted my momentum with a holy pause—not to withhold but to deepen, refine, fill, and whisper: “Remain.”

Here are 15 truths I’m learning in this season:

✨ Stillness is not stagnation. It’s a sacred invitation to remain rooted and deeply aligned with God’s voice.
🕊️ There is holy work in the pause. Don’t confuse divine preparation with delay.
🔥 Oil is cultivated in hiddenness. The anointing flows in the quiet before the commission.
💧 The ache you feel is hunger, not absence. God is drawing you closer, not pushing you away.
🌿 Excitement must be tethered to obedience. Zeal without alignment leads to striving, not fruitfulness.
💡 We can’t live on borrowed oil. Yesterday’s filling won’t sustain today’s assignment.
💍 Bridal affections are stirred in the stillness. Return, remain, and be revived in His presence.
🌸 Not every bloom means go. Sometimes, full bloom is God’s cue to stay and be still.
📖 The Word nourishes in the quiet. In stillness, revelation flows like rain on fertile ground.
🪔 Preparation precedes promotion. God forms us before He sends us.
🌬 Whispers carry weight. In a world full of noise, His whisper becomes the clearest guide.
💗 Return is a rhythm. God’s heart is never far—He calls us back gently, again and again.
🛑 Pause is a posture. Waiting is worship when it’s rooted in trust.
🌾 Depth over display. God grows roots before He reveals fruit.
👑 Holiness before harvest. Consecration always comes before commission.

Friend, which of these truths resonates with you, I’d love to know in the 💬 below.

Excerpt:
“I find myself in such a season. The air hums with hope, bees buzz, birds sing, blossoms unfold—and everything says move. But the Lord says, ‘Be still.’ Not disengaged, but deeply rooted. Watching. Listening. Preparing.”

Have you felt the ache of stillness? Friend, the pause has a purpose—and it’s holy.

Have you ever been captivated by just a few words of Scripture, where even a single phrase feels like a divine whisper reminding you that God is already at work behind the scenes?

Recently, my time in the Bible has consisted of the Lord meeting me through a beautiful collection of words that dazzle off the page, dance in my mind, and are sealed in my heart.

Instead of the whole passage, the verses come alive word-by-word, tiny morsels so sweet to my taste. Sometimes, it is only one word, and others, a few in a row, but there is breath on them, and life imparted as I read them.

Has this happened to you?

It happened again during our Bible study this week. Our leader discussed our Lord’s abundant provision in Christ as he read from John 6.

Eight words woven in the miracle of the loaves and fishes caught my eye, and they glistened like sun rays, “For He Himself knew what He would do.” John‬ ‭6‬:‭6‬.”

Did you catch that?

Let that simmer♨️

The disciples were in a predicament🤔 but Jesus already had the answer; indeed, Jesus is the answer!

Our Abba Father is wonderful at securing us in the truth about Him.

He is God. (Isaiah 45:5)
He is good. (Psalm 100:5)
He is faithful. (Psalm 36:5)
He is our help. (Psalm 44:1)
He is in control. (Colossians 1:16-17)
He is the source of every blessing. (James 1:17)
He knows our needs and has already prepared for them. (Matthew 6:32)

Beloved, we don’t need to fret; we can accept the Lord’s invitation and enjoy His rest. This weekend, contemplate our sacred provision in God our Father, the Lord Jesus Christ, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

Ponder the stunning truth: the Triune God holds space for us, and there is abundant provision in Him.

༻༺

Breathe in: Abba
Breathe out: Shall supply all my needs.

Breathe in: Abba
Breathe out: Deeply cares for me.

Breathe in: Abba
Breathe out: Loves me.

Breathe in: Abba
Breathe out: Is my everything.

Friend, where in your life do you need to be renewed in the truth?

Beloved, what if you lived like every promise of God was already fulfilled in Christ?

Not just hoped for. Not just someday. But done—sealed by the One who cannot lie!

Hebrews 6:18 says, “So that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.”

This isn’t wishful thinking—this is an anchor for the soul—the Truth we get to stand on. God didn’t stutter. He didn’t exaggerate. He spoke, and it stands.

So here’s what that means for us:

✨ It’s impossible for God to lie.
He is not a man that He should change His mind. Every word He speaks is truth. Stand on it like solid ground.

✨. You are secure in Christ.
You didn’t earn your salvation—and you can’t lose it. You were sealed by grace, not works. The Cross is complete.

✨ You are an heir of the promise.
Galatians 3 says that if you belong to Christ, you are Abraham’s seed. That means every promise God made is now part of your inheritance.

✨ You can trust Him in the waiting.
Even when life feels topsy-turvy, He is still multiplying what He’s entrusted to you. Expect blessing. Expect increase. Expect Him.

✨ You are anchored beyond the veil.
Jesus is your forerunner—your High Priest who went ahead of you. Your hope is not fragile. It is firm, fast, and eternal.

So, beloved, what would change if you lived as though every promise of God is already fulfilled in Christ?

Not just knew His Word, but declared it, stood on it, and let it shape how you move, pray, speak, and live?

Let your life testify that God is faithful. His Word is true. And His hope never fails.

What’s one promise you need to anchor yourself to today? Drop it 👇🏾, and let’s stand together.

The consolations of God are strong enough to support his people under their heaviest trials.
—Matthew Henry.

“But on the first day of the week, at early dawn, they went to the tomb, taking the spices they had prepared.” Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭1‬.‭

“And they found the stone rolled away from the tomb.” Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭2‬.‭

“But when they went in they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus.” Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭3‬.

“While they were perplexed about this, behold, two men stood by them in dazzling apparel.” Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭4‬.

“And as they were frightened and bowed their faces to the ground, the men said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead?”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭5‬.

“He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men and be crucified and on the third day rise.” Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭6‬-‭7‬.

“And they remembered his words.” Luke‬ ‭24‬:‭8‬.

May we also remember the words of our Lord Jesus, clinging to each one, for they are Spirit and life.

“Who was delivered up for our trespasses and raised for our justification.” Romans‬ ‭4‬:‭25‬.

—Justified

“For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” 2 Corinthians‬ ‭5‬:‭21‬.

—Righteous

We are witnesses of His grace, testifying to His limitless power. We are partakers of eternal life and children of the Promise. Let us behold Him with awe and wonder, and steward the miracle He has allowed us to experience.

Abba Father,

You loved us to the end, allowing Jesus to taste death for us that we would have eternal life in His name. We behold Him, the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, now seated at the right hand of the throne of God. We praise You for we are found in You and everywhere we are—You reign!

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Happy Resurrection Day🕊️

Friend, have you ever felt like your story is stitched together more by sorrow than Salvation? Like the weight of your experiences speak louder than God’s promises?

I know I have🙋🏾‍♀️. In my latest blog post, I talk about my personal walk of trading condemnation for Christ-centered compassion. Here’s an excerpt:

Sometimes, I’ve revisited my past experiences only to fault-find and scrutinize every decision. In these moments, I became increasingly self-conscious, though, at the time, I would proclaim I was “self-aware,” but in reality, it was rooted in regret and shame.

It was a slippery slope where I spiraled into self-loathing and, sometimes, self-harm. The cycle was often a place of rinse and repeat, but never coming into complete deliverance because the lens I used was me, and with me at the apex, there was no grace in that space. Christianity is hard when we see life through our wounds instead of the finished work of Christ.

By the Spirit, we can shift our perspective from dwelling on our wounds to embracing His scars.

“For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.” John‬ ‭1‬:‭16‬.

Five Keys🗝️

✝️ Acknowledge Christ—remember that He is present, and we stand in His presence. Remain in the secret place.

🤲🏾 Surrender to Jesus—actively place everything into His nail-pierced hands. This isn’t a one time event but something we do repeatedly.

👀 Reframe the Narrative✍️🏾—see life through the cross. Then ask the Lord to show you how to filter everything through His purposes and promises.

👣 Walk in ✞ Redemption—embrace each step as a place of healing and moving forward. We may stumble, but it is an upward stumbling in Christ because it isn’t based on what we do but on what Christ has done.

🩹Wounds a Space for Worship🙌🏾—set up remembrance stones to reflect on His glory and worship Him for all the miracles, large and small. Let’s allow our scars to be the witness of His love, kindness, and the power of the Gospel.

It was a slippery slope where I spiraled into self-loathing and, sometimes, self-harm. The cycle was often a place of rinse and repeat, but never coming into complete deliverance because the lens I used was me, and with me at the apex, there was no grace in that space. Christianity is hard when we see life through our wounds instead of the finished work of Christ.

By the Spirit, we can shift our perspective from dwelling on our wounds to embracing His scars.

“For from his fullness we have all received, grace upon grace.” John‬ ‭1‬:‭16‬.

Five Keys🗝️

✝️ Acknowledge Christ—remember that He is present, and we stand in His presence. Remain in the secret place.

🤲🏾 Surrender to Jesus—actively place everything into His nail-pierced hands. This isn’t a one time event but something we do repeatedly.

👀 Reframe the Narrative✍️🏾—see life through the cross. Then ask the Lord to show you how to filter everything through His purposes and promises.

👣 Walk in ✞ Redemption—embrace each step as a place of healing and moving forward. We may stumble, but it is an upward stumbling in Christ because it isn’t based on what we do but on what Christ has done.

🩹Wounds a Space for Worship🙌🏾—set up remembrance stones to reflect on His glory and worship Him for all the miracles, large and small. Let’s allow our scars to be the witness of His love, kindness, and the power of the Gospel.

Scripture Meditation in comments👇🏾

Hi Friends👋🏾, did you know hearing the voice of God is the birthright of every born-again believer? It isn't striving—His blood paid for it!

Beloved, the message from the Lord is to take hold of our inheritance in Him. If we learn nothing more from Esau let it be this: though he was the rightful heir of the firstborn blessing, he gave it away carelessly—and that alone should speak volumes to us.

A vital part of our spiritual heritage is the great and precious promises Jesus purchased with His blood—and among them is the gift of hearing His voice and the grace to respond.

Remember, before we knew Jesus, before we ever looked in His direction—He was pursuing us so that we would know God in every aspect. He is not hiding from us—the God who is everywhere delights being acknowledged somewhere.

When we respond to the call of salvation, it’s because we 𝒽ℯ𝒶𝓇𝒹 the wooing of the Spirit bidding our hearts, “Come.”

We 𝒽ℯ𝒶𝓇 the Gospel of our Lord Jesus cry out, “Forgiven,” as we gaze upon the cross, and receive His righteousness as gift, as our eyes fastened upon the empty tomb—He is speaking.

We 𝒽ℯ𝒶𝓇𝒹 the heart of God beating as He whispered, “I love you” and “You are Mine,” not because of anything we’d done but because it is who He is—Love is speaking.

ℋ𝒾𝓈 𝓅𝓇ℯ𝓈ℯ𝓃𝒸ℯ 𝒾𝓈 𝓋ℴ𝒾𝒸ℯ!

Child of God, we hear Him every day, and in various ways, He makes Himself known to us. Let the reality of our inheritance in Christ stir your heart. We are the sheep of His pasture, and we hear His voice. Lean into the truth. Open His Word. Sit in His presence. Respond to the gentle leading of His Spirit. Take a moment today to listen—ℋℯ’𝓈 𝒶𝓁𝓌𝒶𝓎𝓈 𝓈𝓅ℯ𝒶𝓀𝒾𝓃𝑔.

Friend, have you ever paused to realize that your life may be the only “Gospel” some people will ever see? It is an awesome thought.

What if the way we speak, serve, and endure hardship is the clearest picture of Jesus someone will encounter?

The more I walk with Jesus the more I see the Gospel isn’t just a message to be preached—it’s the Way we live.

As we embrace the grace of our Lord Jesus in everyday moments, it powerfully shapes our actions and reflects our hope in Him. The Gospel’s transformative power is a beacon of hope for those in our sphere of influence.

🕊️ Living the Gospel Daily 🕊️

1️⃣ Grounded in Grace
The Gospel, from start to finish, is rooted in His grace. It’s not about striving but receiving a free gift through faith.

“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.” Ephesians 2:8.

Grace is the fertile soil from which the fruit of the Spirit blooms—like Aarons’s rod. We are God’s canvas displaying the resurrection life.

“Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” Romans‬ ‭6‬:‭4.

Today, lean into His grace, where the Gospel life thrives.

2️⃣ It Is Finished
Jesus has paid it all. The cross has silenced every accusation, wiped out every debt, and secured our righteousness. Walk in the freedom of His finished work—our firm foundation.

“It is finished.” John 19:30

3️⃣ Christ at the Center
In a world filled with noise and distractions, transformation comes from fixing our gaze on Jesus. He is the Author and Perfecter of our faith. Let’s continue to bow our hearts towards Him. A life centered on Christ is a life shaped by the finished work.

“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus…” Hebrews 12:2.

Are we living as those born of the Spirit, or are we still reaching for what is comfortable—inferior?

We were never created to live by our own strength, striving, or self-effort. From the very beginning, God intended us to live by His Spirit. The finished work of Jesus didn’t just rescue us—it redefined our entire way of being. It transformed how we live, move, breathe, and respond in this world.

Now born of the Spirit, we’ve been invited into resurrection life—one rooted in God’s rest, not human performance. We don’t labor to produce fruit; it flows naturally as we abide in the Vine. One of the most powerful things we can do is fully embrace our identity in Christ and pursue deeper intimacy with Him. As we do, we begin to walk in the reality that we are heirs, ambassadors, and carriers of His authority.

We were never meant to return to the familiar patterns of the flesh when the Spirit of God now dwells in us. Jesus didn’t lay down His life so we could live mediocre, earth-bound lives. He rose again so we could live as He is—in this world.

The call is to awaken, perceive, and walk in step with the Spirit.

Remember:
💫We are born of the Spirit, not the flesh—our Source of life and light has changed.
💫The finished work of Jesus enables us to live supernatural, not inferior lives.
💫Spiritual fruit is not performance—it’s the evidence of identity in Christ.
💫The flesh is familiar, but the Spirit leads us into freedom, not striving.
💫Our humanity is the canvas for God’s glory, not a hindrance.
💫We fight from victory, not for victory.
💫To live by the Spirit is to abide, surrender, and walk in truth—that is true worship.

Friend, grab your Bible, highlighter, and join me for my latest blog post, Christianity is hard when we chose to live in the natural rather than by the Spirit.

Beloved, will you live in the fullness of the Spirit—or settle for the shadow of who you were, a version of yourself you were never meant to sustain?

Have you ever struggled with waiting on God’s timing, wondering if He’s really working behind the scenes?

Waiting ⏳ on God’s timing can feel frustrating, but when He says “GO,” the doors He opens will blow your mind! 🚪

✨ In my latest Seed For The Soul episode, author, podcaster, and ministry leader Theresa Miller shares how surrendering her dreams, fears, and timeline to God led to His perfect plan unfolding in ways she never imagined.

We touched on discerning whether commitments are God-ordained. A pivotal point in our conversation was the concept of evaluating our responsibilities. Theresa pointed out that feeling overwhelmed, frustration, or anxiety, might indicate we’ve taken on tasks beyond God’s intentions for us.

Inside the episode.

💡 Trusting God’s Timing:
💭 Sometimes waiting is the test—will we trust God even when nothing seems to be moving?
🕊️ When we feel restless or burdened, we must ask: “Did I put something on my plate that God never asked me to?”
🌱 Saying YES to God, even when afraid, will always lead to abundant blessings beyond what we asked for.
📖 God doesn’t just give us a calling—He equips us for it in the hidden seasons.
🔑 The right opportunities, people, and doors come when we walk in alignment with His will.

🌟 Are you in a waiting season? Trust Him—your ‘GO’ moment is coming! Drop a 🙌🏾 if you’re believing for God’s timing in your life!

Are you proclaiming victory but struggling to truly walk in it?

We shout, “I have the victory in Jesus!” but then find ourselves battling the same anxiety, discouragement, or frustration. If victory is ours, why does it sometimes feel so far away?

In my latest episode of Seed for the Soul with Theresa Miller, we unpack what it truly means to walk in victory—and trust me, it’s not just about saying the right words. Psalm 63 became a game-changer for Theresa in understanding the how behind victory.

Here’s what we uncovered:

🔥 Walking in Victory 101: 🔥

✅ Healing happens in layers. It’s not a one-and-done deal—God peels back the layers over time, bringing deeper freedom.

✅ Proclaiming victory ≠ walking in it. Many of us say we have victory but don’t actually believe or live it. David in Psalm 63 didn’t just declare victory—he showed us how to walk in it.

✅ Silence the lies. Psalm 63:11 says, “The mouths of liars will be silenced.” That includes the enemy’s lies about your identity, purpose, and worth. The biggest battle is often in our minds.

✅ Victory is more than a title—it’s a lifestyle.
Just because we have authority in Christ doesn’t mean it is automatic. We must relish Hin, and step into His victory through faith and obedience.

✅ The Church needs to reclaim true victory. It’s not just about a breakthrough moment—it’s about endurance, faithfulness, and intimacy with Christ.

💡 Victory isn’t something we just proclaim—it’s something we live passionately. Are you ready to step into it?

Beloved, what if the victory you’re praying for requires surrendering the very things you cling to?

Jesus makes it clear in Luke 14:28-33—following Him requires counting the cost. And let’s be real: the price is high because it will cost you who you’ve been and who you are. But the cost of not following Him? That’s far greater.

Inside the the latest episode of Seed For The Soul, Certified Life Coach and Speaker, Latoya Mathews drops pearls of wisdom.

🏆Victory comes at a cost. When Jesus calls us to follow Him, He isn’t asking for a casual commitment—He’s calling for complete surrender. Salvation is free, but true discipleship will cost you everything.

🏆Comfort and complacency must go. You can’t step into victory while clinging to the safety of what’s familiar. Growth demands movement. Transformation requires surrender. Letting go of the life you once knew is part of the process.

🏆It may cost relationships. Not everyone will understand your pursuit of Christ. Some friendships, connections, and habits were never meant to go where God is leading you. Are you willing to let go for the sake of your faith?

🏆Your way or His way? True victory in Christ means laying down your way of doing things and fully embracing His. It means surrendering control and saying, “Lord, my life is no longer mine. Have Your way.”

Many hesitate when they see the price tag. The fear of loneliness, rejection, or sacrifice makes people hold back. But Jesus reminds us that what we gain in Him far outweighs anything we lose. The temporary life we fight to keep is nothing compared to the eternal glory found in Christ.

So, have you counted the cost? Because the reward of following Jesus is far greater than anything you leave behind.

“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.” Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭20‬ ‭

⚠️ Trigger Warning.

What’s the first thought that comes to mind when you hear the word abortion?

Most often, we think of it in terms of children. But have you ever considered how abortion can also apply to dreams, callings, and God-given purposes—things that were cut off before they ever had the chance to grow?

The enemy seeks to stop anything that carries life before it reaches full maturity. Maybe you’ve experienced the pain of a physical abortion, or perhaps you’ve suffered the death of a dream out of fear, shame, or doubt. Either way, God’s grace is greater and His love covers it all.

In the latest episode 🎙️ of Seed For The Soul, Latoya Mathews shares her story of abortion, shame, and redemption. For ten years, she asked daily, for God to forgive her—only to realize He had been forgiven the very first time she prayed.

🌷You don’t have to carry shame anymore. “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” (Romans 8:1)

🌷Your past does not disqualify you from your destiny. “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you.” (Jeremiah 1:5)

🌷The enemy tries to steal our purpose, but Jesus came to bring life. “The thief comes only to steal, kill, and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” (John 10:10)

🌷Even when we feel like we’ve made the wrong choice, God redeems. “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us.” (Galatians 3:13)

If you have ever felt the weight of regret, the pain of what could have been, or the sting of lost dreams, let this be your reminder: God is a Restorer of all things. The very thing the enemy tried to abort in your life can be the testimony that brings life to others.

💜 God’s forgiveness is final. His grace is enough. You are still called, chosen, and deeply loved.

⚠️ Trigger Warning.

What’s the first thought that comes to mind when you hear the word abortion?

Most often, we think of it in terms of children. But have you ever considered how abortion can also apply to dreams, callings, and God-given purposes—things that were cut off before they ever had the chance to grow?

The enemy seeks to stop anything that carries life before it reaches full maturity. Maybe you’ve experienced the pain of a physical abortion, or perhaps you’ve suffered the death of a dream out of fear, shame, or doubt. Either way, God’s grace is greater and His love covers it all.

She tasted the Lord’s sweetness,
And her eyes beheld His glory.
With childlike faith, she trusted Him,
And the impossible became her reality.
She realized that salvation was her admission into His Kingdom—an inheritance so vast that it would take eternity to unveil.

Sometimes, we treat the Kingdom of God as if it were far off, something we will experience one day. But Jesus tells us differently:

📖 “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” — John 3:3. The implications are that once we are born again we can experience the Kingdom now! But do we?

The Greek word for see is εἶδον (eidon)—which means to perceive, understand, experience, and discern. This isn’t just about looking at something—it’s about stepping into it.

Salvation isn’t about escaping hell; it’s about a relationship with the Living God and entering a Kingdom where heaven’s reality becomes our own, 𝓃ℴ𝓌. Oh friends, my mind has been renewed to see we are not exiles waiting for a home—we are ambassadors of heaven (2 Cor. 5:20) with dual citizenship. We carry the Kingdom within us (Luke 17:21), bringing heaven to earth through our faith, prayers, and obedience.

So why do we live as if the Kingdom is out of reach? When...

👉🏾 Jesus Christ is our inheritance
👉🏾 Heaven lacks nothing.
👉🏾 The impossible becomes possible when we believe Him.

Jesus said: “Whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do.” (John 14:12). We cannot expect the do the greater works if we cannot do the same works.

We won’t shift atmospheres, pray bold prayers, or walk in power if we don’t see what heaven sees. We must reclaim childlike faith—where trust is simple, imagination is limitless, and God’s presence is enough.

In my latest blog post, Becoming Like a Child: Eyes That See the Kingdom, we discover Jesus, our Lord and Savior, is the pattern for a completely new creation that walks in the Spirit, in power and authority welcoming days of heaven on the earth. Link in bio👆🏾

The Kingdom belongs to those who receive it like a child. Will we?

Now, she 𝓁𝒾𝓋ℯ𝓈 𝓁ℴ𝓋ℯ𝒹 because she is 𝒶𝒻𝒻𝒾𝓇𝓂ℯ𝒹 𝒷𝓎 𝓉𝒽ℯ 𝒦𝒾𝓃𝑔.
Fear 𝓃ℴ 𝓁ℴ𝓃𝑔ℯ𝓇 defines her, for ℋ𝒾𝓈 𝓉𝓇𝓊𝓉𝒽 𝒶𝓃𝒸𝒽ℴ𝓇𝓈 𝒽ℯ𝓇 𝓈ℴ𝓊𝓁.
She walks in 𝒻𝓇ℯℯ𝒹ℴ𝓂, knowing 𝓈𝒽ℯ 𝒾𝓈 𝒸𝒽ℴ𝓈ℯ𝓃, 𝓋𝒶𝓁𝓊ℯ𝒹, and 𝒹ℯℯ𝓅𝓁𝓎 𝒸𝒽ℯ𝓇𝒾𝓈𝒽ℯ𝒹.

Friend, whose voice holds the most weight in your life—God’s or the enemy’s?

I’ve wrestled with this recently, almost stepping away from writing and podcasting because the weight of doubt tried to silence me. But God! He met me in my weariness, reaffirmed His truth, and reminded me that my identity is secure in Him—not in the approval of others.

Beloved, the enemy is after the word because he knows its power and importance. His mode of attack is geared towards our identity. He is the king of identity politics, so don’t engage! Instead give him the Word, which is the sword of the Spirit, and he will get the point🗡️.

Fear may whisper lies, but God’s Word speaks louder. His truth prevails. If you’ve been battling doubt, take this moment wrap your heart around these three breath prayers grounded in Scripture:

Breathe in: ℐ 𝒶𝓂
Breathe out: 𝒞𝒽ℴ𝓈ℯ𝓃 𝒷𝓎 𝒢ℴ𝒹!

“But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.” 1 Peter 2:9.

❦

Breathe in: ℐ 𝒶𝓂
Breathe out: 𝒱𝒶𝓁𝓊ℯ𝒹 𝒷𝓎 𝒢ℴ𝒹!

“Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.” 1 Peter 1:18-19.

❦

Breathe in: ℐ 𝒶𝓂
Breathe out: ℒℴ𝓋ℯ𝒹 𝒷𝓎 𝒢ℴ𝒹!

“In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John‬ ‭4‬:‭10‬.‭

Living Healed—when we receive and believe the truth that we are accepted and affirmed by God, in Christ, and through the Spirit alone.

What if every word God speaks to you carries within it the very power to bring itself to pass? How might this revelation shift the way you receive His promises and step into His purposes?

In my latest post, Let It Be According to Your Word: Cultivating faith that receives, believes, and steps into the impossible, we dive deep into Luke 1:37, where the original Greek reveals a powerful truth: No freshly spoken word from God will ever come without the ability to fulfill itself.

God’s Word is not empty; it carries divine power to accomplish His purposes in our lives. Jesus is wooing us, beloved. Do you hear Him?

“She surrendered her plans for His purpose,
Trusting the unseen beyond what was known.
Anchored in His unshakable word,
She embraced His promises as her own.
She walked confident in the God who makes the impossible—possible.”

As we posture our hearts in faith, mix His Word with belief (Hebrews 4:1-10), and receive His Kingdom working mightily within us, we step into a supernatural reality where impossibilities bow to His authority. What sheer delight to find our hand in His, walking in the cadence of grace and peace.

Join me as we prepare the soil of our hearts, receive His Word, and walk in the fullness of what He has already spoken over us. May our resolve in every moment whisper: “be it to me according to Your Word.”

Seven takeaways:

💛Intimacy with the Lord is key
💛The word God has power
💛 Protect the Seed
💛God’s word will come to fruition
💛Walking in the Spirit is the cadence of His grace
💛Soil of our hearts must be cultivated
💛It’s essential to Mix the Word with Faith

“For nothing will be impossible with God.”” Luke‬ ‭1‬:‭37‬.‭

This week consider writing a prayer asking the Lord to help you prepare the soil of your heart, receive His Word with faith, and walk in the power of His promises. Then speak His Word over your life and declare His faithfulness over every impossibility.

Beloved, what if the most sacred moments in your life are the ones no one else sees?

So often, we’re conditioned to believe that only what is visible matters—our achievements, our outward displays of faith, our measurable growth. But what about the quiet, unseen moments where God is at work?

In the latest episode of Seed for the Soul, I had the opportunity to talk with Author Kayleon Dortch-Elliott about her latest book, To Everything: Seeing the Sacred in Ordinary Seasons and Common Days. We explore the beauty of embracing the truth of God’s presence and wonder in everyday life.

Here are eight key takeaways:

🔹 The unseen matters to God—He rejoices over you, even in the smallest, unnoticed victories (Zephaniah 3:17).
🔹 Daily routines hold divine purpose—Ordinary moments, like time with loved ones or simple acts of kindness, are sacred encounters.
🔹 Faith isn’t about what’s seen—We’ve been conditioned to believe only visible manifestations matter, but God is present in the waiting and transforms us in the unseen.
🔹 Small victories reveal spiritual growth—The peace you now have—for the patience you once lacked—these unseen transformations are evidence of the Spirit at work.
🔹 Authenticity in faith over performance—Your walk with God is not for show; it’s about a real, ongoing relationship, not applause.
🔹 Sacred moments happen in solitude—Jacob’s life-changing encounter with God happened when no one else was watching (Genesis 28:10-17).
🔹 Seasons of faith are continuous—We don’t “arrive”; instead, we walk through cycles of growth, refining, and deeper dependence on Christ.
🔹 Transformation happens in the hidden place—God works in the unseen moments, preparing you for what’s ahead, especially when no one else notices.

Let’s shift our perspective: What if the moments that no one sees are the ones that shape us the most? Remember, the LORD is there. He is working.

Friend, are you feeling overwhelmed by a battle too big to win? What if I told you—it’s not yours to fight?

I’ve been walking through some things and supping on the Word, and I was reminded: The battle is not mine but the Lord’s.

I don’t know who else needs to hear this today, but the battle you feel coming for you—that mountain you are facing, the diagnosis that was given, the wayward child refusing to accept correction, the marriage where trust was broken, the friendship that has become entangled, the addiction, fear, failure, whatever it is—
It Is Not Yours, But God’s!

In His presence, she found peace,
And in His victory, her striving ceased.
The battle was never hers to claim,
But the Lord’s—
That His power and glory would forever be proclaimed!

Beloved, cease striving. Be still. Be enamored by His presence. The armor of God is not something we put on—it is something we are already in because of our position in Christ.

If you’re weary, take heart:
➡️ God is already fighting for you.
➡️ His grace is greater than your mistakes.
➡️ Your role? Stand firm, trust, and watch His victory unfold.

And let’s not exchange stirring about the issue for striving about the outcome. Let’s surrender, rest in Him, and let God be God. 🙌🏾

“And he said, “Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the Lord to you: ‘Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God’s.” II Chronicles 20:15.

What battle are you surrendering to the Lord today? Let’s walk in His victory together! 💛

What happens when the journey stretches longer than we expected?

When the waiting feels endless and the answers don’t come in the way we imagined, it’s easy to wonder if we’ve missed something—or if God has forgotten us. But faith isn’t about certainty; it’s about trust. It’s about believing that even in the unknown, God is still leading, still speaking, still working.

What happens when the journey stretches longer than we expected?

When the waiting feels endless and the answers don’t come in the way we imagined, it’s easy to wonder if we’ve missed something—or if God has forgotten us. But faith isn’t about certainty; it’s about trust. It’s about believing that even in the unknown, God is still leading, still speaking, still working.

What if your breakthrough isn’t about getting more faith—but trusting the One who is always faithful?

So many of us ask God to increase our faith, but Jesus already told us that mustard-seed faith moves mountains (Matthew 17:20). So the question isn’t, “Do I need more faith?” but rather, “Where is unbelief hiding in my heart?”

Think about it: When we misdiagnose the problem, we pray for the wrong solution or miss God’s answer. What if the real problem isn’t a lack of faith in God but rather unbelief that God desires to heal?

Why is this important? Unbelief is the root connected to something we believe about God. For example, most of us have seen God show up as our provision in a tangible way. Why then does anxiety strike when a need arises again?

•Consider, that He gave us Jesus His Son, to meet our greatest need before we knew we had a need.

💡 In this post, we dive deep into:
✔️ The peril of misdiagnoses in prayer life
✔️ The importance of diagnosing unbelief
✔️ Why salvation is our greatest need and how it shapes our daily lives
✔️ How surrender, not striving, aligns us with God’s will
✔️ How to get exercise great faith
✔️ Biblical insights from Mark 9, Romans 8, Genesis 32, and more
✔️ 7 journal prompts to help you move from wrestling to resting in God’s truth

👀Inside👇🏾

The miracle of salvation is stunning. It leaves me reeling each time I think about it. When we received Jesus, our lives as we knew them ceased to exist, and His life became our very own. Our salvation is robust and shapes how we think, what we say, and how we live.

The word says, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God.” Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭8‬. Let this verse sink in. Just take a moment.

Breathe in: By grace through faith
Breathe out: I have been saved.

❦

Breathe in: LORD
Breathe out: Help my unbelief.

—Stay here as long as you need.

⏳ If you’ve been struggling with doubt, waiting on God, or wondering why you feel stuck in your faith—this message is for you.

Lately, I find myself navigating a whirlwind of emotions—a familiar pattern whenever the Lord shifts me into a season of transition and the unknown. It feels as though my world is swirling, my footing unsteady like sand beneath me, yet there remains a steadfast Rock holding me firm when I’m too weak to stand. In these moments, loss and grief often resurface, threatening to pull me under the waves. But through it all, I’ve learned to cling to worship and immerse myself deeper in His Word—He is my anchor and saving grace.

❦

What about you, in the midst of shifting, sifting, or seasons of suffering, how do you lift your eyes to see Jesus?

❦

In this season, I birthed my latest Blog Post, The Gift of Praise: Touching Eternity Through the Storm. In it I share a personal reflection on the difference between thanksgiving and praise and why it matters in our faith journey. This post invites us to explore the beauty of praising God not just for what He does, but for who He is—especially in the midst of pain and loss.

❦

We discover how gratitude can lead to worship, how suffering can be the catalyst for us to taste eternity, and how focusing on Jesus through life’s storms brings infinite hope. Discover how my grandmother’s legacy of faith has become the garden where my healing flourishes, my faith is enlarged, and the fragrance of Christ embraces me through life’s highs and lows.

❦

Together, let’s uncover the joy of bringing a sacrifice of praise and encountering God’s heart in every season. I hope you will join me.

🌾 Are You Holding Onto Something God is Asking You to Release? 🌾

Friend, I’ve been there—clinging tightly to my own desires, and plans, only to realize that my hands and heart are too full to receive the best the Lord has for me.

When I feel stuck, I’ve learned it’s often because God is calling me to let go, but I’m holding on—whether to relationships, expectations, false narratives, or even subtle fears.

In Seed for the Soul, Episode 8 🎙️, I sit down with the incredible Jen Kosuda from @theartofamessyhouse to talk about the sacred beauty of releasing and rejoicing. Jen shares powerful wisdom about how releasing is an act of humility that aligns us with God’s will and how true rejoicing is found in Jesus, even in the messy moments.

🗣️ Jen Kosuda says: “Release isn’t about loss—it’s about trust. It’s surrendering what we think we need for what God knows is best.”

🌟 If you’re in a season of wrestling with letting go or needing a reminder to rejoice in His promises, this episode will encourage your heart.

What if your greatest breakthroughs are on the other side of letting go by looking to God and looking for God in the midst of your present situation?

Hi 👋🏾 friend,

Life can feel overwhelming, messy, and even hopeless at times. You might be carrying burdens too heavy to bear, clinging to things you were never meant to hold onto.

⟣⟢A look inside the post⟣⟢

When we like Mary, take our place at the feet of Jesus, and we will see that He is breathtaking. Mary sat and listened. Mary’s obedience is a stunning example of our posture and that we receive the best thing when we choose the One thing (Luke 10v38-42).

Here is further revelation: this same Mary would perform one of the most radical acts, which we continue to talk about today. She poured out an expensive bottle of Nard and washed our Lord’s feet with her hair before He went to the Cross.

“It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.” John‬ ‭11‬:‭2‬ ‭

What is so astonishing is on the third day of His burial women were coming to the tomb to do the very act of anointing Him, but they couldn’t for He had risen.

⟣⟢A look inside the post⟣⟢

When we like Mary, take our place at the feet of Jesus, and we will see that He is breathtaking. Mary sat and listened. Mary’s obedience is a stunning example of our posture and that we receive the best thing when we choose the One thing (Luke 10v38-42).

Here is further revelation: this same Mary would perform one of the most radical acts, which we continue to talk about today. She poured out an expensive bottle of Nard and washed our Lord’s feet with her hair before He went to the Cross.

“It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.” John‬ ‭11‬:‭2‬ ‭

What is so astonishing is on the third day of His burial women were coming to the tomb to do the very act of anointing Him, but they couldn’t for He had risen.

𝒯𝒽ℯ 𝒽ℴ𝓃ℴ𝓇, 𝓉𝒽𝒾𝓈 𝒽ℴ𝓃ℴ𝓇 𝓌𝒶𝓈 𝑔𝒾𝓋ℯ𝓃 𝓉ℴ ℳ𝒶𝓇𝓎 𝒶𝓁ℴ𝓃ℯ!

Discover how to cultivate deep spiritual fulfillment in a world full of distractions. This post explores how to break free from hurried, surface-level faith and embrace the joy of abiding in Jesus through His Word.

The post features powerful Bible verses, practical insights, and journal prompts, and encourages believers to reflect Christ’s love, walk in His peace, and live prepared for His return.

It is perfect for anyone seeking to deepen their relationship with Jesus and rediscover the beauty of spiritual rest and readiness.

Grab your Bible and lets go!

Hey Friends,

I thought this would be a quick quote and then off to the races🏇, but God had something different in mind. Hold tight to the end; I promise it will be worth it, as I greatly desire to impart some spiritual encouragement to bless you. Okay, let’s roll up our sleeves and dig in.

Believing God, at its core, is one of the rawest, most powerful, sacrificial, and exuberant acts of obedience.

𝒢ℯ𝓉 this, in doing so… it pleases Him. 𝒜𝓃𝒹 𝒸ℴ𝓃𝓈ℯ𝓆𝓊ℯ𝓃𝓉𝓁𝓎 𝒹ℯ𝒶𝓁𝓈 𝒶 𝒹ℯ𝒶𝓉𝒽 𝒷𝓁ℴ𝓌 𝓉ℴ 𝓉𝒽ℯ ℯ𝓃ℯ𝓂𝓎.

And the immediate byproduct is the blessing of rest because of His faithfulness!

When we choose to believe God, it is also an act of 𝓌ℴ𝓇𝓈𝒽𝒾𝓅 and releases a measure of 𝑔𝓁ℴ𝓇𝓎 that celebrates Him and produces joy within us. We glorify God and are blessed as we do what we are created to do.

When we live in light of this revelation, the 𝑔𝓇𝒶𝒸ℯ 𝓌ℯ 𝓇ℯ𝒸ℯ𝒾𝓋ℯ 𝒾𝓈 𝓃ℴ𝓉 𝒾𝓃 𝓋𝒶𝒾𝓃, 𝒶𝓃𝒹 𝒻𝒶𝒾𝓉𝒽 in Him becomes our way of life.

One more thing: as we continue to believe in Jesus, we often find our trust is followed by what some may call a test🤷🏾‍♀️. The enemy sometimes strikes to make us shrink back and remain in unbelief. It can present in many different forms; be vigilant by remaining in the word.

It can be something so small as 𝓃ℴ𝓉 blurting out the vision God told you to keep sacred for a season, or larger such as getting out of bed though you still physically feel the pain, stepping outside to feel the sun on your face when depression looms in the recesses of your mind, tithing or giving an additional offering when the balance in the account is bread crumbs, giving graceful word to the person you see as the author of your affliction; whatever it is, respond in faith. God sees it and is faithful to give more grace in each moment. He is inexhaustible.

This single act of obedience on your part isn’t for Him–ℐ𝓉’𝓈 𝒻ℴ𝓇 𝓎ℴ𝓊! God already knows the outcome. He is showing you what He has already deposited in you through the finished work of Jesus. It was there all along, you are just walking it out. ℐ𝓉 𝒾𝓈 𝒻𝒾𝓃𝒾𝓈𝒽ℯ𝒹!

Hi Beloved,

I pray that throughout this week you’ve remained refreshed and secure in goodness of God towards you! Because you are so loved✞

I am so full, writing this to you, because you are loved, deeply loved by Jesus.

As I spend time with the Lord, I am overwhelmed by His kindness and His ways. I’m practicing living acutely aware of His presence and discovering His willingness to impart wisdom, dispense grace, and lavish love in each moment.

I encourage you to live enlight of His countenance, because He is facing you and watching over you. Indeed, He has His banner of love stationed over you because you are so precious to Him.

Therefore, respond accordingly by trusting Him. This is easily done by bringing everything to Him. Sitting with Him. Saturating yourself in Him.

Allowing Him to be God, because He is.

He will lift whatever has made your life heavy and exchange it with His perfect rest.

Blessings,

𝒜𝓃𝒹𝓇ℯ𝒶

“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.”
‭‭Zephaniah‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬ ‭

And just like that😮‍💨 a New Year. ℛℯ𝒶𝒹𝓎, 𝒮ℯ𝓉, ℛℯ𝓈𝓉, in the deeper things of God. The Lord continues to reveal (His) 𝓇𝒾𝑔𝒽𝓉ℯℴ𝓊𝓈𝓃ℯ𝓈𝓈, our word from 2024 as foundational for 2025. Surprisingly, we received the confirmation of two additional words for the year, the first being: 𝒢𝓇𝒶𝒸ℯ and the second: 𝒫𝓇ℴ𝓂𝒾𝓈ℯ. We are ecstatic and feel pregnant with anticipation, knowing these words aren’t only for us but for everyone connected to us.

My husband and I prayed for the Lord to help us set the rhythm for the season and He gave us 𝑔𝓇𝒶𝒸ℯ 𝑔ℴ𝒶𝓁𝓈. These aren’t just ambitions—they’re invitations to step into deeper intimacy with God. They come at a cost: surrendering ourselves, abandoning earthly expectations, and embracing the eternal.

Here’s what we feel led to focus on:

1st 🏹 Live Loved by God. Let the unshakable truth of His love shape every thought, decision, and action.

2nd 🏹 Live in wonder and awe of Him. Stay filled to the brim with His presence, marveling at His beauty and glory.

3rd 🏹 Flow with the Spirit. Let gratitude pave the way, guiding our steps and filling our hearts.

4th 🏹 Embrace radical grace and hope. Expect to experience the fullness of God’s promises by faith.

5th 🏹 Relish the sacred of simplicity. Find joy in the beauty of a slowed-down, Christ-centered life.

6th 🏹 Cherish the present. Fully embrace each moment and treasure the people and blessings God has placed in our lives.

7th 🏹 Rejoice in the hope of His glory. Live intentionally and purposefully, grounded in the finished work of Christ and the wholeness we have in Him.

It is a privilege to live this abundant life, trusting that the Lord is orchestrating every step. Nothing is by chance—each moment is holy and sacred when surrendered to Him.

If I had to sum up our goals in one sentence, it would be to gaze upon the One who is invisible, experience and reflect His beauty, and dwell continually in His presence. ℛℯ𝒶𝒹𝓎, 𝒮ℯ𝓉, ℛℯ𝓈𝓉.

Friend, what are your goals for 2025? Share one (or all of them!) in the comments👇🏾—I’d love to partner with you in prayer as we pursue His will together.

Hi Friends👋🏾, can you believe it, 2024 is a wrap!

Where did you see God in the past year? How did He reveal His character to you? What prayer did He answer maybe in an unexpected way? Where did you grow and in what ways did God stretch your faith? I would love to know.

I’ve had some time to pray, ponder, reflect, and write over the past month, and still need more time to sup in His presence and soak in the word, however, did want to give you something to consider as the dawn of a new year is on the horizon.

If you’ve been on TOT1 any length of time you probably know that this time of year is pretty exciting in our home as the Lord prepares the New Year with a New Word and Scripture for us to embrace. God is full of splendor and He is doing a new thing providing a theme and we are over the moon about it.

I will share our word and Scripture at a later date but definitely wanted to unveil the theme today: The Year of the Lord’s Favor.

I believe it will be a word that resonates for many who read my posts. God is at work and it is auspicious, and grand, and I am here for it!

Today in preparation for what He has for us, I want to share a thoughtful list of things to leave behind in 2024 to make space for growth, peace, and purpose in the coming year. May the Lord tend the garden of our hearts so we remain flourishing and fragrant with the aroma of Christ throughout 2025.

In 2010, my husband suffered a back injury that was further complicated by surgery. The procedure left him with a multi-level titanium cage to stabilize his back and a pin in his pelvis. Since the beginning of this journey, nearly every day has been marked by residual pain—physically, emotionally, and mentally.

To say the least, it’s been an arduous adventure, tangibly experiencing daily reality yet living in the Truth of another. Every day presents us with the glorious opportunity to cling tightly to the promises of God knowing,

This year brought its own challenge when I encountered shingles. The only pain I’ve ever experienced that rivaled this was during emergency surgery for a bowel obstruction that resulted in a colectomy. And, if you know anything about Shingles, it doesn’t like to leave quietly; it attempts to leave lying symptoms of post-neuropathic pain in its wake. I am so grateful for the Truth: 𝒩ℴ 𝓌ℴ𝓇𝒹 ℴ𝒻 𝓉𝒽ℯ ℒℴ𝓇𝒹 𝓌𝒾𝓁𝓁 𝒻𝒶𝒾𝓁 𝒶𝓃𝒹 ℯ𝓋ℯ𝓇𝓎 𝓅𝓇ℴ𝓂𝒾𝓈ℯ ℴ𝒻 𝒢ℴ𝒹 𝒾𝓈 𝓁𝒶𝒹ℯ𝓃 𝓌𝒾𝓉𝒽 𝓅ℴ𝓌ℯ𝓇.

I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving 🍁! I don’t think I’ve mentioned this before, but my husband and I live far from our family. Since we moved, holidays are often a quiet celebration with just the two of us and our fur-baby, Chopper 🐾. I haven’t introduced you to him yet, but I’ll share more about him in the new year—he’s quite the character! 🐕

In the past, we’ve felt a bit sad during the holidays because we couldn’t be with family. But this year is unexpectedly different. Over the past year, the Lord has continued to stretch and teach us in many ways. One of the biggest lessons we’ve learned is that, in Christ, we get to decide beforehand how we will approach situations. So, we’ve decided to embrace contentment and rejoice in what the Lord has placed in our hands.

This viewpoint has been our position throughout the year, and it’s especially helping us in this season. I wanted to share this because there have been many challenging years for us, filled with tears. But shifting to a godly perspective is helping us navigate our emotions around special occasions.

Instead of dwelling on what we may be missing, we can rejoice in Who we have and the incredible place He has brought us to in this season of life.

I want to be clear: this is not to minimizing anyone’s loss or grief. Those feelings are real and valid. Yet even in the most challenging seasons, Jesus is at work, and we don’t want to miss the beauty of what He’s doing right now.

I hope this encourages you as you navigate this season, too.

Looking ahead, part of this next season requires my husband and me to be still before the Lord. We’ve heard the word He has given us for 2025, and we want to prayerfully reflect on what it means. With that in mind, I’m taking a social media break to focus on Jesus, spend time with friends, and enjoy the festivities.

I am praying for peace and joy over each of you in this season!

“My beloved speaks and says to me: “Arise, my love, my beautiful one, and come away.” Song of Solomon‬ ‭2‬:‭10‬.

“He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.” Song of Solomon‬ ‭2‬:‭4‬.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Good Evening Beloved,

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!! I wanted to hop on here and tell you I didn’t forget. I do have something special 🎁 I am hoping to share soon that requires your participation🥳. So be on the lookout.

I know it’s late, so I will make this quick. I recently walked through an episode of Shingles, which was incredibly painful. I will go into more details at a later date. I want to say God is so good, y’all. He prepared me with His word before it ever became a thing.

I am continuing to soak in His love, hear Him, and glean dainties from our time together. He is teaching me a lot about perspective, the lens I use in life, and how I talk about what I am walking through. I noticed the questions I bring Him are changing the longer I follow Jesus. Have you seen something similar?

Well, tonight, I released a post called Pain–A Human Reality And The Truth: There Is Grace In The Blood. These are thoughts that came from time spent with Jesus in the word.

In this reflective post, we explore the tension between pain, faith, and the relentless schemes of the enemy. Through the lens of scripture, we are reminded that the Blood of Jesus speaks better things, granting us access to God’s continual presence and His unchanging goodness.

We examine the enemy’s subtle lies, the questions they provoke, and how to respond like Jesus—with truth and faith. Drawing insights from the Book of Job, we contrast self-righteousness with resting in God’s grace, highlighting the transformative power of viewing trials through the lens of the Cross.

This post challenges us to reject lies, embrace truth, and believe God’s report. It’s a call to faith, a celebration of our Mediator, Jesus Christ, and an invitation to experience freedom and victory in Him.

I pray you will be refreshed by the verses from the post. Scripture references: 1 John 3:20, 2 Timothy 2:13, 2 Corinthians 4:7, Job 9:33, Matthew 6:33, Hebrews 11:6, Isaiah 53:1. Biblical Journal Prompts are included and can be downloaded from The UpperRoom Channel and by visiting the link in the bio👆🏾. I hope this word blesses you🙏🏾.

Have a fantastic week!
