A Life of Joy

The Power of the Tongue & God’s Judgment Against Gossip

I want to speak on this serious topic because our tongue has the power to bless our lives or curse it. We need to be more wise on how we use it because God will hold us accountable.

Helpmate Series Ep1: The Motivation Factor

I felt led to start a series dedicated to discussing topics that are related to becoming the “helpmeet” mentioned in Genesis 1. God’s original design for women was to help the man in his call as priest, king, and prophet. If we are honest, we would admit that we have not been living up to our responsibility as women. I want to discuss certain areas that we all can improve on when it comes to taking our rightful place as co-rulers. As God shares knowledge and insight into my life as a single mother raising 2 sons, I want to be able to share that insight with you! My prayer is that we can be the catalyst that help men to recognize the greatness that’s within them so they can step up and be the men we need. I pray this blesses you!

Biblical Interpretation & My Thoughts on Divorce Part 2

This episode is a response to a YouTube comment on what I thought about another believer’s video on marriage, divorce, and remarriage. I also talk about why building one’s own relationship with God is vital in interpreting scripture and being led by the Holy Spirit and why grace is SO necessary in this life.

The Fruit of Idolatry: Life Lessons from the Jaxn Divorce

With the most recent news of Derrick Jaxn and his wife’s divorce I wanted to share my thoughts on the issue of idolatry and how it affects the success of our relationships. There are so many accounts of men and women who choose their relationship and spouse over God and His principles and His word is clear “Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.” (Galatians 6:7) God will never reward idolatry with the things we want (love, Joy, unity, faithfulness, etc). Those thing are only found in submission to His will. Whatever or whoever we place on the throne of our hearts will result in ultimate disappointment and shame. However even in that God is gracious and willing to turn around our lives for the good if we will forsake our disobedience and submit to His will. Be blessed!

Is Divorce a Success?

With the latest news on Tia Mowry’s divorce, a lot of attention was given to her perspective on how she viewed her divorce in a positive light. I want to discuss that and how so many good men and women are enslaved to the religious view of divorce. We need to break free and understand what TRULY makes a marriage successful.
