My people, it’s been a long time since I blogged, and I was beginning to tell myself that I’m a retired blogger and I’m moving on to writing books now (like this one 😉).

Have you ever wondered why we use the term “godmother?” And what exactly does the role entail? Has someone ever pulled a godparent aside and said, “Ok as a godparent, this is what the role demands from you?” If they did that for you, that’s great. I just never hear anyone doing it. Instead, there seems to be an assumption that when a close friend is…

Sometimes I wake up on Saturday mornings and I say this prayer borrowed from a dear friend’s best friend “Lord, order my day today” because my schedule is free to be rearranged. I wasn’t exactly planning to write today, but my plans this morning got moved to the afternoon, so here I am, writing. If you are a deep-thinking writer, you know it takes a lot…
Have you wondered why some people are able to be at peace even though they have a lot of problems? And I don’t mean the people who are oblivious or in denial. I’m talking about those people who have a sense of peace although their lives are not perfect. Well, I’m here to tell you the secret. I can hear my fellow Christians saying, “it’s Jesus…
