I used to wonder when my life would start. Day after day I felt as though I was waiting for something to happen – although I could never quite figure out what that something was. At one point I thought it was a man that I needed – perhaps a fairy tale romance would add meaning to my life. Or maybe if I had more children and the perfect family I would have joy and fulfillment. Or perhaps if I finally got my degree and had a lucrative career and some fame then life could really start then. So I began…

I found myself questioning everyone and everything around me. I felt like I was just thrown in the pit like Joseph. What do I do now? I felt betrayed by friends and setup by co workers. Sometimes we lose focus and then worry creeps in. We become fearful of what lies ahead. The plan we had for our life. You know, the plan where you had your career, husband and future all mapped out. Next thing you know. Bam!!! It didn’t happen. Now our thoughts become whittled with doubt. We begin questioning our purpose in life. We examine the choices we’ve made…

“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” – Hebrews 11:1-KJV Even though this has always been one of my favorite Bible verses, years went by before I realized the significance of the word “now” in the verse. Now is defined as at the present time or moment. So why is the word “now” so significant in this verse? Because it’s telling us that we need to be confident and believe that what we’re going through at the present time is going to change. We can’t rely on our past faith, or…
I was once told by my former boss at a previous company I was employed with “How you do anything is how you do everything”. When he told me this I didn’t quite understand the saying; he then proceeded to explain what that saying means. Once given the insight I took that saying and built my own model after it which is “Long as I have God first I shall never be Last”. No one said the walk would be easy, but as a follower of Christ I knew I would hit some bumps in the road. I work for a…
If you’re familiar with the story of Joseph, you know he didn’t have it easy. In Genesis 37, his jealous brothers threw him into a pit and left him to die, then thought better of it and sold him into slavery instead. He was taken to Egypt from his home in the land of Canaan. After a while, he thrived as the personal servant to the captain of Pharaoh’s guard, put in charge of the whole household. But when his master’s wife falsely accused Joseph of trying to seduce her, Joseph was thrown into prison. In prison, Joseph again became…

In the summer of 2011 I found myself unemployed. Having had a job since I was fifteen years old, it felt completely surreal that I did not have consistent income. Immediately, I spruced up my resume and began job hunting. I had two degrees, connections, and charisma. It seemed only logical that hiring managers would flood my inbox in no time. A couple of weeks of not hearing from anyone turned into a few months. Follow up emails, calling HR professionals, and executing every networking strategy my graduate school years taught me lead me to dead ends and sheer frustration. It wasn’t…
Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.” Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If it is the Lord’s will, we will live and do this or that.” James 4:13-15 As you get wrapped up in the business of living, it is so easy to forget these words. Easy to forget how brief our lives are.…
