The weight is too heavy because you were never meant to carry it.   Throw the whole weight of your anxieties onto Him! For you are His personal concern! 1 Peter 5:7 What are you carrying around that you were never meant to carry? The reason we tremble under major emotional pain is because He […]

A very wise mentor of mine once told me this when she found me crying in the ladies room at church one Sunday when I couldn’t understand the rejection I was experiencing at the young tender age of 20 something. It was our first job in ministry and I was new at all the expectation, […]

Many of you know that Lisa Young was scheduled to speak at this year’s Happy Conference and wasn’t able to due to her mother in law’s homegoing. We were so saddened and our hearts went out to the family. But also the thought of the legacy this lady left overwhelmed me the whole weekend and […]
