  • Black Women In America

    Black Women In America

    Years ago my friends volunteered me to speak for this documentary about being a light-skin black woman. I met the director D.Channsin Berry, he’s so awesome! He is also the director of the documentary “Dark Girls” this film premiered on OWN and is now on Netflix. After he and I met, he filmed, while I talked and…

  • Am I Transforming as I Walk?

    Am I Transforming as I Walk?

    I once read this saying, “You can only FLY, once you are willing to Give Up the Safety of Your Cocoon!” For me this is HUGE. In life we sometimes get stuck in a rut because we think we have the answer in “My way.” There is so much safety in “My way!” Even if it’s wrong or…

  • PEACE…When the Door You Try to open, LOCKS!

    PEACE…When the Door You Try to open, LOCKS!

    So for the past couple of weeks we have been renovating our kitchen/house. I have been tryin to keep focus on the final masterpiece, but honey, I got depressed. I just don’t function well in mess, and my house has been a HOT MESS! If you have ever lived IN a reno, then you know exactly what…

    The bunny gotta go, fo real….

    Never did I think I’d be writing about Easter the day before Resurrection Sunday.  This was on my mind so heavy last night, so let me think out loud. LITERALLY..  Growing up we referred to Easter Sunday as Resurrection Day! Most of the people we went to church with would greet you with “Happy Resurrection Day”,…

    Cheers! It’s been 9 years! What have I learned?

    Marriage is rewarding and hard work.  If you are doing the work, you are focusing on how to be more self-LESS.  It’s so easy to complain about our mates and what they should be doing better, or how we can fix them.  A lot of times we even pray the Lord change this or that.…

  • My Father or My Wife?

    Since the beginning of man, man has been getting into trouble over woman.  When God saw that there was no help meet for Adam, He caused Adam to go into a deep sleep,  He took Adam’s rib, made woman and brought her to Adam. Genesis 2:21-22  As a new proud husband Adam says, “This is now…

  • Letting Go of CONTROL!!!

    I actually published this last year on my old blog,  I read it again and it spoke to me again. A lot of times we want to control God, but He is the potter and we are the clay.  We want to rub him like a rabbits foot for luck but don’t want any part…

  • Understanding my journey is not yours!

    It’s amazing to me how if someone does not understand something, they then try and discourage you from your journey on finding understanding, clarity or wisdom. My goal in my walk with the Lord is to CONTINUALLY GROW! I don’t want to be paralyzed in my walk, my faith.  I don’t want to be in the…

  • Dresses and skirts my 1 year journey

    What is cooking in my oven of Faith? Where do I begin? How do I describe this journey? Well…….  I want to wear dresses and skirts no pants no shorts, for 1 year to see where the Lord leads me.  I grew up Apostolic/Pentecostal in California. In California women/girls always respected the house of God, the…
