When “that was humbling” comes out of my mouth, it usually means a less than proud moment had just occurred. Yet, as I sit and allow God to speak my worth over me, I realize that He desires those moments to occur. UGH! Anyone else think, “let’s just not”? I’ve walked the tight rope for […]
You’ve probably heard the saying, “The proof is in the pudding.” The true meaning of this saying is that you will not know what’s inside without taking a bit.

Today, I sit and write to you looking (and feeling) like a hot mess, yet also feeling God’s enthusiasm, His devotion in my soul.
