A blog to openly put all my feelings while I'm discovering and loving myself.

  • Dear God, I wish you would give me a 5 year roadmap. I am so grateful that you are intentional and timely and have a plan. I wish I did. My parents are trying but they act as if money is just flowing. Like I have time to think about things besides rent. And they…

  • My head is overrun with thoughts. And I think it’s time to break out. I want a sound mind. I just came back from a retreat hosted by the women’s ministry at my church. And I realized a couple of things: Am I surprised about any of these? Teaching kinda, but not really. It is…

  • Warning: There is explicit language in this post. Dear God, Today I’m completely in my head. And I can’t get out. It feels like all the insecurities I’ve spent months dismantling all came back and I’m drowning in my thoughts. I think it all started when my cousins came. And I don’t know, when family…

  • This has been a really profound week for me. I didn’t realize it but Holy Week left me on a high with a deeper appreciation for God. This week brought me back to my reality lol. First off, my friend is annoying me. I think my period is coming but I also think I need…

  • Worthy is your name, JesusYou deserve the praiseWorthy is your name. Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet 1Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. 2During supper, when the devil had already put…

  • In January, I wrote a post about having a servant’s heart and the traits needed to cultivate that. I was previously convicted that my stubbornness was causing fractures and for unity, I need to have a servant’s heart. This post, I think, especially with Holy week, I’ve also been sitting, juggling having a servant’s heart…

  • Jesus Cleanses the Temple 12 And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all who sold and bought in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who sold pigeons. 13He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house shall be called a house of prayer,’ but you make it a den of robbers.” 14 And the…

  • Today started off really well. And now I’m in my head. Lol. So, I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this in other blogs, but I serve on the prayer team at my church. And that has come with its highs and lows, but I do think I’m right where God wants me to be. That…

  • So, I watched a podcast episode and it made me think of a lot of things. And maybe this space can also be a place for me to unpack. So, fyi, it’s not a Christian podcast. But the 2 hosts and their guests are all Christian. And one of them is a recent Christian, but…

  • Right now I feel empty. I’m in church right now and I feel deeply lost. I feel like I’m losing a battle even though God has already won the battle: I’m deep in comparison battle. I feel like I’m losing a battle. I’m slowly falling into self hatred. I just don’t know why anyone would…
