In Remembrance of Me
April 21, 2025
I forget so easily. It’s not intentional, of course, but when I am behind an obstacle, unless something or someone brings it to memory, what I focus on is the obstacle …

It’s the time of year where people express thanks. A thank you to life, family, friends, achievements, events, or what ever it may be. The things I happen to be most thankful for aren’t even tangible; such as love, growth and wisdom. These three things encompass my biggest lessons and blessings this past year. They helped shape me into the person I am today and have given me the means to further my experiences and opportunities in regards to life, and my career.
Over the past year, self growth became a necessity for me because I became aware of the real power that comes with it. Being able to reflect and analyze the actions of everyone around me, and even myself, gave me a different perspective on life and how to treat certain situations. Learning myself and growing from that was one of the best lessons and blessings I didn’t know I needed.
With self growth came wisdom. I grew in every aspect of my life; emotionally, financially, physically, mentally, etc. The experiences I went through, because of my growth, allowed me to gain new knowledge — knowledge that I have been able to turn into experiences and as a result, gave me a sense of wisdom that i have been able to spread to my close friends and those younger than me. They say that knowledge is power, so I’m thankful for the true strength that came with it.
With all the growing, came the realization that I need to open myself up to the idea of actually loving people, and not necessarily in a romantic way. I learned to be at peace with myself so that I can openly care for others with little fear of being hurt by them. After I opened myself up, I seen so many others do the same and that mutual love for friends and family is something new but something that means a lot. My friends and I are growing together, my family and I are growing together, and the love of growing with someone is a different type of bond. This love is genuine and deep, and I am very appreciative for it because it has literally helped me through the worst and helped get me to my best.
Thank you to everyone and everything that has contributed to my growth. I see the true power in it and I finally see my potential. I’m using this space to acknowledge that of which I am grateful and thankful for. Take time to give thanks, find what you’re thankful for, and enjoy your holidays.
God’s Purpose for Our Lives
April 14, 2025
Doing so can lead to a life characterized by a constant pursuit of “the next thing,” an endless chase with no clear destination, and a futile quest for less fulfilling pursuits. On the other hand, a life that isn’t guided God’s purpose …
Pursuing Christ
April 7, 2025
It’s not just minimum efforts that could mean a lack of loving the Lord in action. Sometimes, like Martha (Luke 10:38-42), it looks like doing too much without the heart of the matter, which is Christ. We are so into what we look like …
It Starts and Ends with God

But do we realize or grasp who we already have at our disposal, the power that He holds in his hand, and the intimacy level that God has with us of knowing …
