Automate Your Savings and Your Life
Some years ago, when I had just finished college, but right before I started my accounting career (I’m an accountant by training), I started using the credit cards that had been provided at the school gate. Do you remember those days? If you signed up, you got a free t-shirt or something free – and […]
Commit the Plan
Are there some doors that you have knocked on, and no matter how hard you’ve knocked they’ve just not opened? Yesterday, as I was going through my devotion, I came across a passage of scripture, opened my Bible to the place, and then shortly after as I was scrolling social media, the same exact scripture […]
The Goodness of God
For many years, I did not have the words to share on this. As we are approaching the fourth anniversary of my grandmother‘s passing and the 19th anniversary of my brother’s passing, I am choosing to celebrate their lives and to honor their memory. The day before my grandmother passed away, my aunt who had […]
Stop Letting Fear Win
I know I’ve talked about this particular topic a few times over the years, however, there seems to be continued lessons from it. As some of you may know, a few years ago, I was diagnosed with a vision issue called binocular visual dysfunction, BVD, for short. Part of my particular issue is that the […]
Relationship Changes Perspective
My daughter has a set of friends that she met when they were five and seven respectively. They have now been friends for close to 10 years. Recently, as our families were hanging out together and sitting around the dining room table and talking about times past. The now teenagers shared how scared they were […]
What Am I Building?
“What Am I Building?” I’ve been sitting with this question recently. Maybe it is as a result of a conference I attended that reminded me that the work that I do is not just for today, but it is building something bigger for tomorrow. Have you ever asked yourself this question? “What am I building?” […]
Learning to be Kind
Before I get into today’s post, I want to take a moment to celebrate two very important milestones. Ten years ago, yes, ten years, I felt called to start writing this blog and even though I reluctantly did – I felt hugely unqualified to do so, I chose to start it on my mother‘s birthday. […]
A Timely Interaction
I had the privilege of attending a business conference this past week. As I was sitting in the airport lounge awaiting my flight home and meditating deeply on the last presenter and what he had shared, I noticed a very beautiful woman who was one of the staff in the lounge. While I was processing […]
Good or Bad Things?
Waking up at 4:45 on a Sunday morning is never fun. While I know that I have to write, I know the exact time I need to be up to get it done. I had a feeling I should’ve gotten up to go read my Bible as the Lord wanted to meet with me. As […]
Before You Call
I was just scrolling through pictures and was reminded of the topic I wanted to share. A couple years ago as I was planning my birthday celebration, I had bought some yellow flowers, yellow utensils and black table cloth, along with a gold banner in the days leading up. The celebration was going to be […]
