Water Your Seeds

"Every leaf that grows will tell you: what you sow will bear fruit..." --Rumi


Don’t cultivate a spirit of depression in your children by allowing them to watch you “suffer in silence.”

Your excuses will become their bondage.
Your bad habits will become their thorns.
Your pain will become their pit.

Live life to the absolute fullest!

Explore your heartache.
Unravel from the unhealed trauma.

Don’t let the pain hold your purpose hostage.

Don’t selfishly wallow in the pig pen of pity at your children's expense.

Don’t stay chained to darkness.

Don’t lie on your belly of sadness.

Don’t let the lack claim their abundance.

Rise up from the “ashes of defeat” by taking “proactive” steps:

Let your words frame their future.

Let your life be a testament of your faith.

Let your path ignite their hope.

Let your prayers comfort their sorrows.

Let your reservoir of living water saturate their barren places.

Water your seeds daily...

with love,
with patience,
and understanding.

Remember whatsoever a man sows, he reaps.

Are your actions producing blooms or weeds?

Even when these two think I’m being ridiculously tough on them, 

I pray that love abounds in all the empty spaces of misunderstandings and that they thrive on the manifestations of mama’s prayers.

I pray that my witness will always affirm my faith.

I pray generational blessings overwhelm them with peace, happiness, and much success!

I pray that when they feel depleted by the cares of the world that they know who to seek for the ultimate refill.

 I pray that my daily courage frees them from the clutches of darkness that tries to overshadow the light of their wings.

Broken Covenant

Once upon a time— I wanted to believe something was real so desperately that I silenced the Spirit within me just to keep the illusion alive. I saw every red flag— not as warnings, but as tests of how much  I was willing to endure to feel chosen. I asked no questions because truth was already whispering, and I feared what obedience would cost me. So I made a covenant with denial— calling lies “grace,” and confusion “patience,” because the truth felt too vast, too holy, too disruptive to the future I had built in my mind. I clung to potential like it was promise, and mistook absence for peace. Yet the weight of it— this thing I called love— crushed my spirit daily. Still, desperation dressed itself as loyalty and convinced me to stay. And it didn’t get better. It decayed. Quietly at first… then unmistakably. Each time God unveiled truth, I chose the comfort of shadows over the calling of light. I pleaded. I prayed. I begged— not for revelation, but for permission to remain where I w...

From Chaos to Calm

After a while… the need to be heard at full volume begins to dissolve. The rooftops grow silent. The flames you once fed with trembling hands no longer feel like power— only exhaustion. What you burned never built a home. And somewhere along the way, you realize— not every echo returns, not every seed takes root, not every mountain was yours to climb. The grace you poured out like water in a desert, the love you offered with open, unguarded hands— it did not come back the way you imagined. And still… you are here. So instead of fighting what refuses to bend, you loosen your grip. Not in defeat— but in awakening. You release the need to be answered, to be chosen, to be understood by those who never learned your language. Your hands, once reaching outward, begin to rise— not in desperation, but in devotion. Upward. Open. Steady. God… I see You now in the quiet I once avoided. I hear You not in the thunder— but in the space where my striving used to live. And I am ready. Something within ...

Do Not Resuscitate (DNR)

What unsettles me most about some people is not the harm they cause— but the silence that follows it. No conviction. No trembling. No evidence that a soul was ever stirred. As if something sacred once lived there… and quietly left. What remains is form without fire. A body that breathes, but does not  feel . A Walking corpse. Spiritually vacant,  yet socially skilled— fluent in imitation, but foreign to truth. They move through people like weather— touching everything, anchoring nowhere. I once mistook that emptiness for mystery. Confused detachment with depth. Thought restraint was discipline, when it was really disconnection. But there was  no rootedness in him— only appetite. An endless hunger dressed as desire. A man grazing on bodies, scrolling through souls like they were disposable moments. Not searching. Not building. Just consuming— to quiet something unnamed within him. Unhealed wounds don’t stay still. They wander. From bed to bed, from face to face, from high ...
