The Valley Experience (Sooner Than Later it's Gonna Work Out)!

God gave me a word last week about Valley Experiences, I had to come to the understanding that there are periods in life that we would encounter ups and downs. There are seasons in life where we will experience the Mountaintop experiences and in direct opposite to those times, we will go through valley experiences. I know that those moments are some of the most painful but I also know that everything has a time limit and an expiration date.

I pray everyday asking God, in my most annoying child voice, Are we done yet? But I get no response it seems. I cry out wanting my life to be turned right side up again, where everything is well with me and well with the world. Ah, but I am still going through this process...Travelling a path to God knows where. I don't get a preview of my life story or the flight plan for my life. So, I am left to operate in faith and trust blindly.

The path though the valley is filled with twists and turns and the path seems neverending but I must go through it.

To go through requires patience, it requires you to trust God's timing and not your own. It's really a matter of surrendering your plans and your way over to Him! To go through is to move forward and function as required. I am sure I am good at mastering the art of pretense, smiling when I'm hurting and broken inside; showing face around others when I'm lonely and feel isolated from the world. I go through limping but still making my away along the path, pushing ahead to the end.

The Valley is not easy but it is the thing that builds character and great men. I imagine Nelson Mandela suffering in prison for fighting against apartheid, I am sure he resolved that life in prison was to be his end...but God had a different ending to his story. He spent twenty-seven years in prison...that's a long time to be in a valley. However, his valley experience came to an end. And it will also be the same for us. Our valley moments have an expiration date. There is a time and a season for everything under the Heaven, a time where we are up on the mountain, relishing in our success and a time where we are deep down in the valley.

I just wanted to encourage my readers that your expiration date is coming, I cannot say when, but God knows. Let me let you know what God said to me the other day. He told me not to watch nothing, don't watch my circumstances, don't be overly concerned about my present state or circumstances but rather stay on course and go through my process...sooner than later, my end will come right around a turn...It's Gonna Work Out!

Unveiled to Be Transformed!

Mean It!

Hello, is this thing on?🎤 Well, it has been a while since I have released a blog post. The reason is that I have not been inspired to write much of anything lately. When I tell you the season I was in, from a personal perspective was a dry season. it was a period of being off the grid and staying in the shadows. It was the season of my detox. It required me to be poured into rather than pouring out myself. Lately, I found myself searching and in desperate need of something different. I needed more! Now, I want to qualify my statement, by simply stating that I needed more than the norm. More for my life! My professional life, my spiritual life, and my personal life required me to seek beyond my normal. I was... no I am intentional about my next season being way different than before. I cannot get away with a mediocre outlook on life because I want more of what life has to offer. I want to be more. I want to experience more. I am not speaking from the mater...

Unspoken Words...I Broke Down Today!!!

So how's this for a reel...real talk, real truth and real emotions... I Broke Down Today!!! Some would say, I had a meltdown while others would say I lost total control of my emotions. I would have been deemed emotional and yet I was unashamed... I baled, I balled, I cried out in desperation because of hurt, pain, mishandling and misinformation. You see days before I was walking tall, proud that I was keeping it all together. For what though, for a world that is growing colder and callous every day. Now has me wondering, do people truly care about people. The world today is not the world that I dreamt about...a world of peace, love, unity, equality, equity and family togetherness...just the sound of it seems farfetched now. But yet I still have a dream... that one day tings gonna get better...like the good Bishop says. I broke down today because family is not the same anymore, so much division, so much strife, no unity and I am asking where is the love that once was had. I broke d...

Taking Flight

Latest Release Broken Wings: From Hurt to Hope It' s already December 2016 and I made it to the last month of the year and it feels darn good! Upon being grateful that I made it to this point in the year, I also have some wonderful news to share with you. I recently published my first book which so happens to be connected to my blog. You see, I started writing during a period of my life, where I was overcome with darkness, as I was going through a period of heartbreak and depression. This blog was therapeutic for me, it helped me write through my pain and thus one day, I sat still long enough to pen words that eventually became my first book, "Broken Wings: From Hurt to Hope. My book chronicles my experience where I battled depression and tells my very own personal story of how I navigated through one of the most painful times in my life. It is as about as real as you can get. I hope that my book, just as I hope my blog is an encouragement to someone that needs to ...
