LIKEWISE

Likewise

Jesus loved to make a point using parables. He’s sneaky like that haha, the setup Jesus. He would share a parable, then point to you, with the goal of teaching you a lesson. I would go to say one of the hardest acts of living like Jesus, is to love the offendable. Jesus shares the…

OUR REFUGE

Our Refuge

Happy New Year friends. I pray that you have started it off right by seeking the Lord’s direction above all. There is no greater fulfillment than to stay humbly obedient. I usually celebrate New Year’s eve feeling excited, this year I did not. Last year, was one of my most emotionally difficult. From our country…

NEW EVERYTHING

New Everything

Hoping that you had a wonderful Christmas season celebrating the reason for the season. As the new year approaches, we tend to come up with new year resolutions such as losing weight and other goals. Most people chuckle at the ideas as unrealistic. It takes very intentional lifestyle changes to break old habits. I remember…

LIKE DAVID DID

Like David Did

The Psalms came as music from David, the man after God’s own heart. He would sing psalms in good and bad times in His life. It was an outpouring of His raw emotion. As I was reading this beloved book of the bible, I felt the Holy Spirit say, “Sing them to me”. I was…

STRENGTH IN MEEKNESS

November 1, 2017 · 2 Comments

Strength In Meekness

This word meekness has always been sort of like a dirty word to me. I’ve always perceived it as passive, insecure, timid, and quite frankly not me. You want me bold and fearless right God? But oh have things changed. In this process of pulling up roots, changing my heart, and molding me into His…

ANNIVERSARY EDITION

Anniversary Edition

This week marks my one year anniversary edition co-authoring, Lens of Faith. The Holy Spirit is the Author. It’s hard to believe that it’s been an entire year sitting down every week and speaking His divine revelations. He made it clear that he would speak through me when I started out hesitant and I am…

TIME AFTER TIME

TIME AFTER TIME

God’s grace since the beginning of time amazes me. I know when reading the old testament it can seem full of wrath with a lack of mercy. Yet when reading Nehemiah 9, I see the God of many undeserved chances. He displayed a grace unlike any ever would. Our ancestors disobeyed God over and over,…

ALREADY WRITTEN

God has great plans for us

Much of our lives are spent planning. What we will do, where and when we will go? Sometimes we pray about our plans and desires, hoping that God will jump on board and make it all happen. I was that person most of my life as a strong, independent woman. Even though I have loved…

HEAL OUR LAND

Heal Our Land 2

Saturday’s news of Charlottesville hit me hard. I have barely slept since and it has stirred up this great burden to cry out for my beloved America. Growing up in the diverse Bay Area, California, I can not relate to any of this. I had Chinese, Black, Puerto Rican, and Hispanic best friends, since I was…

HE KNOWS BEST

He Knows Best

Just this past weekend, I was blessed to visit for the first time, the gorgeous island of Nantucket. It took my breath away to say the least. From the dreamy harbor filled with boats to the rich purple, pink and blue hydrangeas that graced each home and street. Surrounding this island full of hidden treasure…

If the devil can’t get rid of you in your mother If the devil can’t get rid of you in your mother’s womb then he will attack your mind, your life to try and defeat you. ⚠️
You must be on guard, know his tactics and defeat him with the authority God has given you as a believer. Believe truth over lies friends.
God doesn’t make mistakes.
You are chosen.
Your life has great purpose.
You are loved.
💙
“The devil was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him.

Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.” 
-John 8:44

When the devil tries to attack us with doubt & dis When the devil tries to attack us with doubt & discouragement, we must use our God given authority to silence the father of lies.
SPEAK BACK. 🗣 
His #1 goal is to get you to give up on your purpose, your promises, your dreams, your relationships and ultimately your life.
He’ll make you think you have mental illness, anxiety, depression & confusion. He’ll even have you blame others but in reality he is the peace robber. He is the root cause of the attacks on your mind.
He knows that if he can control your thoughts, then he can control your life.
He’s never original. All he can do is counterfeit. He’s been up to his same ol’ tricks since day one in the garden. 🐍
But there’s hope, friends. The more you captivate your thoughts, stop entertaining yourself with the things of this world, saturate yourself in God’s word, allow him access to your heart, let him heal you of your past and believe the truth of who he says you are, the more you’ll live FREE.
The enemy will constantly try to sneak in and lie when he knows we’re vulnerable. But when he realizes that we cannot be moved, then he loses his power over us and backs off. 🔥 Remember, you are not defeated. You are more than a conqueror in Christ. 💙
“I have given you the authority to resist the devil and he will flee from you. Do not fear. Be strong & Courageous.” -James 4:7, Joshua 1:9
Side note: not everything is the devils fault. But if you are living surrendered to God then attacks on your mind to try and cancel your purpose, need to be silenced.

It’s easy to tell someone you love them but acti It’s easy to tell someone you love them but actions speaking louder than words, is when you’re selfless. Saying yes when you want to say no and with a good attitude is the best proof.
Jesus is the best example of this. He proved his true love for us when he sacrificed on the cross and he did it willingly.
Be a person who sacrifices for others. Live selfless in a selfish world. Be there when it counts by acting like Jesus.💙
self·less
/ˈselfləs/
adjective
concerned more with the needs and wishes of others than with one's own; unselfish.
"an act of selfless devotion"
