Closet Gems: From K-Dramas to Kingdom Focus - 21 Day Fast - Faith, Words, Consistency
Consistency. Whew Child. That word sounds good in theory...until I start negotiating with myself about showing up again the next day. Y'all know what I mean right Ladies? The gym for instance. UmmHmm, I knew y'all understood where I was coming from! That word and I have a complicated relationship.

This birthday hits different. It’s not just candles and cake. It’s surrender. It’s gratitude. It’s revelation. Somewhere between 49 and 52, I stopped asking, “Lord, why me?” and started saying, “Lord, use me.”

Closet Gems: Jewels of FAITH -Encouragement Through Life's Changes
Hitting our 50s? Sis, that’s not a finish line—that’s a VIP wristband to a whole new concert. Maybe you’re a late-in-the-game mama juggling diapers with reading glasses in every room of the house.
