The Great Shift: Embracing the Crossroads of Change

We have the power to create our lives. With every breath we take and every moment we are gifted, we co-create with the universe. To be unaware of this truth is to leave ourselves unprepared for the opportunities and challenges life presents. Often, we feel powerless simply because we fail to understand the true natureContinueContinue reading “The Great Shift: Embracing the Crossroads of Change”

Reflections on Healing, Love, and Letting Go: 2024 in a Nutshell, 2025 in Focus

As we move fully into 2025 — a year of completion, inner growth, and understanding — it’s important to reflect on what the previous year has taught us and the foundation it has helped us create.

The Purpose of Pain: Where God Meets Us

We come into this world fragile, unknowing, and dependent—and we leave it in much the same way. Along the way, life leaves its marks on us, not in spite of its challenges but because of them. We are shaped, scarred, and softened by the trials we face. Yet so many of us chase an illusion—aContinueContinue reading “The Purpose of Pain: Where God Meets Us”

Starting the Year in Chaos: A Spiritual Battle, the Armor of God, and Writing Through the Storm

This was initially to be included at the end of this post, but it is far too important to make a footnote out of it: All of us here at the Twin Tree Project send love, prayers, and support to those affected by the terror attack in New Orleans, our heart home, yesterday. New OrleansContinueContinue reading “Starting the Year in Chaos: A Spiritual Battle, the Armor of God, and Writing Through the Storm”

The Rot Before the Resurrection: When God Lets You Break to Build You Back (A Testament to God’s Promises)

What do you do when your life feels like it’s crumbling into dust, and God seems silent? Sometimes, it feels like He’s letting you rot—but what if that decay is the first step toward new life? Now, consider this: What if God is not silent at all?

The Light is Returning: Reflections on Growth, Karma, and Renewal

As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting once again on how nature’s cycles—like the quiet return of light after the winter solstice—mirror our own journeys through darkness, transformation, and renewal. They remind us that even the hardest struggles, though they may cut deeply, can lead to growth and balance if weContinueContinue reading “The Light is Returning: Reflections on Growth, Karma, and Renewal”

Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)

I wrote this post a year ago, but the words necessary to appropriately convey it took a lot longer to set in. I used to struggle with anxiety, especially around the holidays. Not the run-of-the-mill holiday stress—this was the kind of anxiety that wrapped itself around my chest, whispering, “Someone’s going to die. Something terribleContinueContinue reading “Learn from the Enlightenment My Pain Caused Me (Or How Pain Is the Enlightenment)”

From Pain to Purpose: How Faith, Integrity, and Gratitude Transformed My Trauma into Growth

What if the greatest tragedies of your life were actually the catalysts for your transformation? What if faith, honesty, and gratitude could take you from the depths of despair to a life filled with purpose and peace? I’ve lived through my fair share of pain—loss, caregiving, exhaustion, and moments of doubt so deep I almostContinueContinue reading “From Pain to Purpose: How Faith, Integrity, and Gratitude Transformed My Trauma into Growth”

When Two Worlds Collide: A Reflection on Soul Connection, Chaos, and Divine Timing

There are moments when the universe speaks directly to you—through a song, a conversation, or even a message stumbled upon at what can only be described as divine timing. Recently, I came across a post titled “When Two Worlds Collide” that stopped me in my tracks. Its words struck a chord so deep it feltContinueContinue reading “When Two Worlds Collide: A Reflection on Soul Connection, Chaos, and Divine Timing”

Lay it down.

The Weight We Carry What are you holding onto, and why? Are you carrying the burden of proving your point to someone who isn’t even paying attention? Are you weighed down by grudges, betrayals, or the need to justify yourself? The truth is, holding onto these things doesn’t serve you. It hinders your growth, blocksContinueContinue reading “Lay it down.”
