Growing up, I wanted to be a variety of things ranging from a boy, ice skater, ballerina, teacher, dragon to a housewife. Through the ever changing list, one always remained. I wanted to be a mom. The older I got, the more intense the desire to have kids became. At one point, I stopped caring…

Recently, I’ve been accused of being racist, and not a Christian. My crime? Not liking Meghan Markle. I firmly believe that she is fake. She’s a manipulative, lying, conniving woman, that I once thought highly of. For some people, they can’t see past race, so if you don’t like someone who is even remotely black,…

E molded me into a submissive slave. He taught me early on, in the friendship stage, not to argue with him. If I, or anyone for that matter, had a differing opinion, or dared to tell him he was wrong about something, he would come back with ‘It’s because I’m a man, isn’t it?!’, or…

Mending my relationships was difficult. I’d been hurting my family for so long, and I had no idea how to tell them why this time was different. I felt ashamed for allowing E to control me, ashamed for the abuse I suffered at his hands, ashamed that I didn’t talk to them, didn’t share with…

One morning, at the crack of dawn, I woke up. In a moment of clarity, the reality of my situation hit me like a Mack truck. Emotions flooded me in the most overwhelming way. I was finally awake to the nightmare that had become my life. Desperation overtook me, and I instantly had a plan…

Fake Christians are probably the people I despise the most. They make it near-impossible to bring people to Christ, because so many people have come across a fake Christian, and it’s left a nasty taste in their mouth. I can’t say that I blame them. Christians are supposed to be Christ-like. We have all seen…

Sleeping is something that I am horrible at. This has been true for as long as I can remember. As a child, I was terrified of the dark, had horrible night terrors, and was just anxious about sleeping in general. Beside my bed was a picture of a puppy with a Bible verse, ‘Be Still…

While there are many more amazing women in the Bible, I’m ending this series with Mary Magdalene. When Jesus arose from the dead, He didn’t seek out one of His apostles. He didn’t wait for the next man to come along and show Himself to. It was a woman named Mary Magdalene. Now Mary is…

For weeks, I’ve had one Biblical woman on my mind to write about, one that there isn’t much written about. She’s in a tiny snippet, and I feel unqualified to write about her. However, as I’ve continued to look into, and try to write about other women, God continued to keep her front and center…

Deborah was a prophetess, we hear about her in Judges 4. She was also the leader of Israel at that time. She led her people to war, and they were victorious! Can you imagine back then, a mere woman is not only leading God’s people, but she leads them in war as well. What a…
