Today I was reading the scriptures and my spirit settled here: 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace.

When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong
When I travel, I overpack every single time. The hilarious part is when I deceive myself thinking the suitcase will actually close!

Birds Unaware
This morning I sat on the steps with my morning coffee admiring nature. I enjoy watching the birds and squirrels eat their breakfast. The sparrows caught my attention exclusively this morning.

I thought God didn’t want me y’all.
In my first post, I mentioned that I thought God was only interested in white girls. I want to unpack that statement. I am a Black Puerto Rican woman and I love it...now. My mom is Puerto Rican from New York and Daddy was an African American from Kingstree, South Carolina. We moved to Kingstree … Continue reading I thought God didn’t want me y’all.
The Journey Begins
The picture above this post is spot on for where I am in my life currently. I feel as if I'm in the middle of the pacific in a life floatee, no nourishment in my floatee, just Jesus telling me to walk out of my floatee to him...I can honestly say that I've stepped out … Continue reading The Journey Begins
