Greetings!

We are right at the cusp of a new day….a new year…a new season, and I am so grateful…not for the end—but, for the new beginning…

This is actually my last scheduled blog post for 2014. That means that I have been writing this blog for five years. That is crazy to me. I remember writing my first blog post in 2009 after the publication of my book, “Let My Life Be A Testimony.”  I was so excited and amazed at how God had held my hand through that whole process. He gave me each word, and then held my hand when I set those words free. I was so afraid of rejection that it was almost paralyzing—but God. He never left me…not once. That act of faithfulness changed my life, because now I know that no matter what happens…He will always be by my side. He did not have to prove Himself to me, but He did, and He did for no other reason than His love for me.  

Through the last five years I have been stretched in ways I never thought possible, and I am still here. Praise God! I have made mistakes, and because of God’s grace, I know that those mistakes do not define me…instead...they empower me.  Through these “lessons,” I have learned that the only enemy that can stop me from pursuing all that God has for me is…me.

If you are struggling to be all that God is calling you to be…stop struggling. Nothing is going to stop what God has started. Believe in the power of His might, and know that God loves you beyond anything you can imagine. 

"I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength he exerted when he raised Christ from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly realms" (Ephesians 1:18-20).

Until next time...

Be blessed
