Continuing to talk about mental health for National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month but focusing on our relationship with money. Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour. 1 Peter 5:8 Amplified Bible (AMP) Money, […]
For the Lord God, the Holy One of Israel has said this, “In returning [to Me] and rest you shall be saved, In quietness and confident trust is your strength.” But you were not willing, Isaiah 30:15 Amplified Bible (AMP) Natalie Louis asked me what I love to do or enjoy to do.

Juneteenth is my first lesson in resistance even though it wasn’t framed in that way. But if you understand the history of this Black Texan celebration, you’ll understand why it has such a significant meaning. It wasn’t just the fact that we found out 2.5 years after the Emancipation Proclamation was read by then President […]
Then the Lord said, “Because this nation approaches [Me only] with their words And honors Me [only] with their lip service,But they remove their hearts far from Me,And their reverence for Me is a tradition that is learned by rote [without any regard for its meaning], Isaiah 29:13 Amplified Bible (If you read the context in verses […]
26 Be angry [at sin—at immorality, at injustice, at ungodly behavior], yet do not sin; do not let your anger [cause you shame, nor allow it to] last until the sun goes down. Ephesians 4:26 Amplified Bible By the way, ‘the sun goes down’ means end of the day. And the day is not over until we are […]
