  To see beyond the scope of the self and raise one’s awareness of the Godhead within is a feat that all humans undertake. The endurance needed to pursue what we perceive as the worthiness of being a child of God is mandatory. It becomes so not because we are indeed unworthy as children of […]

Cindy’s baby is a boy! Mommie and Daddy found out last night and emailed the good news this morning. She also shared that her latest doctor’s appointment went very well. Lil’ guy is strong and growing with a healthy heartbeat. Amen!

We are not bound and tethered by people’s perceptions of us. We are only bound when we internalize those perceptions and make them realities.
