  • The depths and variations of love are wide. In February, we’ll post love vignettes on different types of biblical love. Delighted to feature “Quanny” Ard who shares, “As long as individuals have existed, the concept of self-love has existed.” We can’t love others well if we’re struggling to accept and love who we are. Embrace the lovely being you are. #philautia #loveyourself #loveothers ❤️ @pexels photo
  • On Saturdays, our house was filled with music – R&B oldies and Jamaican music played loudly throughout the house. The sound of housework was a constant also – cooking, cleaning, mopping, dusting, and organizing. We talked as we worked, and sometimes we bickered. Once chores were completed, TV noise increased again as we would watch movies in my bedroom together because that’s where the DVD was. #family #emptynesters Stop by Dahlia Collective today...
  • You failed. Again. You’re struggling with behaviors which hinder your spiritual walk. Take heart, love...The beauty of #redemption is the grace which covers us when we miss the mark. That’s the beauty of a #cleanslate. @alicewilliam86 takes us through Psalm 51. Check us out today. ❤️🙏🏻
  • “It pains me to say this as someone who appreciates a plan and a purpose, but sometimes you have to take change as it comes. And sometimes it comes unannounced. Sometimes it’s a new beginning you initiated, wanted, or expected, and sometimes it’s not.
Whether it’s a job change, a change of location (or both, in my case), a relationship status update, a fresh taste of freedom after being incarcerated, or the adjustment that comes with becoming a parent, new beginnings can be tough territory.
Both my first day of college and, four years later, my first day at a new job in a new city where I was living alone for the first time were a combination of joy, excitement, uncertainty, and fear. 
The challenges of new beginnings are uniquely able to transform us, bring a complex type of joy to us, and even make us question every decision we’ve ever made. Live link via profile.

  • It was Lucy, the popular character from the Chronicles of Narnia series who held on to Aslan’s words: “Courage, dear heart,” the lion whispered. Courage reminds me of a similarly-spelled word: Coraje. In Spanish, coraje means anger or frustration. Enough anger can propel the human heart to action, regardless of one’s circumstances. Inaction breaks the human spirit. I tell them to take risks in our classroom, and they do. #tolerance #urbaneducation #resilience
  • We waited for the grand spectacle of creation that happens every single day: a simple sunrise. The Wonder of #Sunrise by Alice William.
  • We think we can outrun our fears and responsibilities if we keep our lives moving at a rapid pace. Perhaps if we fill up our schedule with appointments, we won’t feel the emptiness that remains like a crater in our souls. If we have enough projects and parties, we think conviction of sin won’t be able to find and knock at the door of our hearts and we won’t notice our separation from God. @shansometimes is today’s contributor!
