Inspired by Tia

Today, the world bid farewell to a beautiful soul, Tia Barbour- Hale. Driving to Nashville, I didn’t know what to expect as I had never celebrated one’s life in parade style.... yet, the moment my husband and I arrived on the grounds of Lake Providence, the beautiful sounds of African drums met us at the…

Let Him in

Well Hello Again....Happy New Year 2018! I have certainly been gone long enough. For those of you who do not follow me on social media, I released my first book, a personal memoir entitled Healing Flows (coincidence?) on September 11,2017. Since then, life has happened! I've had quite an exciting ride over these past few…

Letting go

This is probably the hardest post I've ever written...when you don't want to accept reality, it's sure as heck hard to write about your own.... This week, my daughter got accepted into preschool. My baby. My rider. My mini me. My tot, I cannot believe it! I've dreamed about what preschool would be like. I…

Look again

“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.                           Isaiah 43:18-19…

What your life says about u

"Those who believe in the son of God have the testimony of God in them." 1 John 5:10 What does my life say about me? I've been thinking about this for a few days now. If someone would have told me I'd be living the life I'm living, I probably would not have believed them.…

Untitled ( my feelings)

I cried today. Not just small tears, either. I cried, bawled, gave it all to Jesus.....and do you know what's wrong? Absolutely nothing..... It started early this morning. In the wee hours of the morning, I was in bed listening to "God is here" by Karen Clark Sheard. The next thing I know my body…

God’s timing is Perfect

As I sat in McKenzie Arena this weekend listening to the commencement speech for the 2017 graduating class, I couldn't help but reflect on what the speaker was saying. "There is no better moment than right now!" For the students he was addressing , that statement may not have meant much; but to me, it…

Let Her Live

Today, we laid my great-grandmother, Nevada Watkins, to rest. We said goodbye to her body for the last time. I had the honor and privilege to do a tribute to her at the funeral today. She meant too much to not have one.It was hard, but I'm built for this. I decided to use this…

Who’s crying for you?

I am in my early 30s and just recently took to this writing habit....I've always loved writing. I have always had a passion for journalism. I love taking pictures ; however, I somehow did not decide to pursue it. I think it's because I didn't want the fun to be taken out of it. Writing…
