Last week, I celebrated 6 years since I preached my first sermon. I am not worthy, and I have grown so much along the way. My prayer is to bless one person each time I speak. Anyone extra is overflow. I have a funny feeling year 6 will be the best yet. God, I thank you!

Embrace your authentic self and let it shine ✨ Code switching may seem beneficial, but it comes at the cost of your identity. Remember that what's understood doesn't need to be explained. #Authenticity #EmbraceYourself #CodeSwitching

Living through seasons of deletion can be tough, but remember to insert a "yet will I" mindset. By doing so, you allow God's power to take over your story. Just like Habakkuk, who went from perplexity to perspective to perseverance, you too can navigate through these times.
