From Glory to Glory

I give up!  Yes, I am waving my white flag in surrender. Here is the most significant revelation that God made me comprehend during this pandemic and that it is a need to give up. I know most of us would never say never or surrender...but I felt so much a tugging in my spirit to finally give up and yield. This year, for many people, we had to learn to be still and take a time-out. A time-out that allowed us to connect to our Creator. Well, I did just that. What I realized in these months of 2020 is that God controls my destiny. Not that I was not aware of this before, but before 2020 I was so hell-bent on going after what I wanted, rather than what He wanted for me. I was absorbed in chasing so many things and working on so many projects.  All along trying to get the world to notice me.  I wanted them to pay attention to who I am and the gifts I have and that I was someone to reckon with.

Now back to my reflections regarding people perceptions of me. One of the

This is my confession....I am tired of being locked away...it has been about  a month and counting (I definitely lost count). At first, I breezed through the first few weeks like a champ. However, lately, I am fatigued, physically and mentally tired and longing for social connections, nature connections and a sense of my life...where I have a freedom to roam and do what I please within the confines of the law. .

Being single and living alone....I do enjoy the quiet moments, the solitude and peace with not having to be bombarded with common family foot traffic in a multiple family living space. I love my space but I crave connection more than ever So, this week it is hitting me hard and I am drained. I have also been keeping busy working from home and  developing content for my job.  I am also working as a technical assistant and producer for my church virtual programs s
