If you want to know the core of a person, you must be a fruit inspector. God tells us that “no good tree bears bad fruit.” The good person brings out of the good stored in their heart. We must have discernment and know how to recognize the fruit in others. Now there is a…
Staying Teachable
The key to growth is staying teachable, which brings life and God’s good pleasure. I grew up with a performance mindset and thought God desired perfection. He had to change my mindset to be set on truth. That truth is that God desires a humble heart, a teachable spirit, and a repentant posture, not perfection….
Wise Counsel
We’ve all done it. We talk to someone about a challenge or life situation and then run with their input, putting it into action. They might even be someone we love or respect. Sometimes we end up regretting it and it is why we need wisdom. It is very important that we stop listening to…
FAVOR IS NECESSARY
Who doesn’t love favor am I right! Well I’ve been a Jesus loving follower my entire life but have never really experienced it to this capacity until this season of isolation that I’m in now. God has shown me a whole new perspective on favor and why He dishes it out. You see, I know…
YOU HAVE PURPOSE

BUT EVEN IF
One of my favorite bible stories is of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Most people know this as amazing because they were put in a fiery furnace, had Jesus in the fire with them, and were not harmed in any way. That is mind-blowing. But as I was just rereading the story, the Holy Spirit spoke…
2020 VISION
Happy New Year friends! It’s hard to believe we are in a new decade and in the twenties. I thought we would have Jetson like flying cars by now, ha right. I rang in the new decade in such an unforgettable way with two of my sisters at the Jesus 19′ conference in Orlando. We…
