When I was a kid, my father was a beekeeper. Stings were inevitable—especially for a curious, stubborn, fearless kid like me. I suppose God knew my dad would need a little extra wisdom, so He blessed him with plenty of good, old-fashioned common sense. And when it came to bee stings, my dad’s solution wasContinueContinue reading “When the Sting Comes: Wisdom and Love for 2025”

The Journey to Self: Why Focusing on You Is the Key to True Connection
A few days ago I came across a quote that deeply resonated with my experience over the last few years: When they said she was going crazy…She was Awakening. When they said she was isolating…She was Healing. When they said she was acting funny…She was Growing. When they said that she changed…She was Evolving. WhenContinueContinue reading “The Journey to Self: Why Focusing on You Is the Key to True Connection”
Sunday Sessions: The Paradox of Past and Future — Healing While Moving Forward
This morning, I find myself reflecting on the paradox of time—the way the past, present, and future weave together to shape who we are and who we are becoming. This paradox—this tug-of-war between honoring the past and releasing it—has been heavy on my heart as we close out this year and look toward the next.ContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Paradox of Past and Future — Healing While Moving Forward”
The Practice of Happiness: A Foundational Principle for 2025
As we enter a new year, it’s almost impossible to escape the tidal wave of resolutions. Everywhere, people are declaring what they won’t do, how they’ll “fix” themselves, and which habits they’ll break. This collective focus on lack—on what must be eliminated, avoided, or overcome—perpetuates the very energies of woundedness and insufficiency that many areContinueContinue reading “The Practice of Happiness: A Foundational Principle for 2025”

When God Says “No”
We’ve all heard the saying: “God always answers, even when the answer is no.” Sometimes, you’ll hear it in more digestible, encouraging words, like, “Rejection is protection,” a common motto among the “new age” community. For years, I heard it too, but it never really resonated. I didn’t truly understand it until I experienced oneContinueContinue reading “When God Says “No””
“I Exist”: Finding Faith and Purpose in Suffering
I think I could stand anything, any suffering, only to be able to say and to repeat to myself every moment, ‘I exist.’ In thousands of agonies—I exist. When I first read these words from Dostoyevsky, I wasn’t just struck by their meaning—I felt them. They brought me back to one of the darkest seasonsContinueContinue reading ““I Exist”: Finding Faith and Purpose in Suffering”
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 Energy of Christmas: A Celebration of Light, Love, and Connection
As the holidays approach, it’s easy to get swept up in debates, stress, or even frustration about what Christmas should be. Some argue over whether to say “Merry Christmas” or “Happy Holidays,” as if one diminishes the other. Others lament its commercialization or shy away from the word entirely, fearing it might offend. But atContinueContinue reading “The Energy of Christmas: A Celebration of Light, Love, and Connection”
When Giving God the Glory Hurt Me—And Taught Me to Love Better
For a long time, I struggled with the phrase, “Give God the glory.” My mother used to say it constantly, especially during moments when I longed for her gratitude. As her full-time caregiver, I poured myself into serving her, yet she never thanked me—only God. It drove me crazy. Why couldn’t she see my efforts?ContinueContinue reading “When Giving God the Glory Hurt Me—And Taught Me to Love Better”
