I don’t know about you, but I love massages. Actually, I had one not too long ago. I usually get a Swedish massage, because Deep Tissue tends to be too tough for me. Most times, I schedule one because I just want to relax or escape from my normal world with the smooth instrumental wave music. Sometimes I fall asleep, and other times I’m up just enjoying the whole pampered experience. How about you? Do you like massages? Or do you feel like right now, [...]
Yes, that’s right! You have a destiny! And God wants you to reach it. There’s something that you’re called to do on this earth, that has already been preordained for you to do. You are unique, different, and called to be set-apart for the Lord’s mighty service. You have work to do to help build God’s kingdom…and I do too. Amen! But don’t you know that when we are confident of this very thing, that we have a great enemy (Satan) that is like a [...]
I would say that this is a pretty important question. I was thinking about writing something else this morning, but then the Lord quickened me. As I was about to begin writing, I heard a still small voice whisper to me, “There is a way which seems right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” I thought, “Whoa! That’s pretty powerful.” I want to tell you that this is an actual Scripture, and it’s found in Proverbs 14:12. It jolted [...]
Do you like social media? Well personally, I would say that I’ve actually grown to really like it. I will admit though at one time, I told my husband that I was not going to fool around with it, because it seemed like it could be addictive. Yet lo and behold, after giving it a whirl myself, I really began to like connecting with my new followers on Twitter and LinkedIn. And I thoroughly enjoy chatting with my family, friends, and fans on Facebook. It’s [...]
"Iniquity Unchecked is a Dangerous Thing" - Don't Ignore Your Convictions...
Wow! You’re probably wondering, why so graphic Courtnaye? My answer to that question would be, “Because God hates it.” Plus, you know I’m pretty real! But seriously, it’s actually an abomination unto Him. Proverbs 16:5 says, “Everyone who is arrogant in heart is an abomination to the Lord; be assured, he will not go unpunished.” So you see, God is pretty serious about this, and as His daughter I am too, and so should you. Furthermore, if this is left unchecked, it could be very [...]
Would you agree that we’re living in a wild world? I mean, so much is happening in the world around us today. As each new day dawns, we’re hearing and seeing so much more negativity, violence, and sexual immorality on TV, social media, in our communities, and beyond…that it’s totally mind-boggling! And unfortunately, many are beginning to lose sight of where we are in time, and where we really need to be as we walk out our Christian walk with God. The Bible states that [...]
Every now and then, I write about current issues and topics of our time. And that’s what I believe God has called me to do today. As women, we need to be educated and stay abreast of what’s happening in the world around us, especially as we are called to be salt and light in the earth and witnesses for Christ. I’m aware that many won’t talk about this titled issue on the level that I will today, and that’s okay. But as for me, [...]
How are you today, sis? Are you tired? Are you growing a little weary in well-doing? If so, I’ve been there too. Now on the flip side, are you invigorated and refreshed right now? If so, I think that’s awesome too! But…just in case you ever get to the point when you feel like you are growing weary in well-doing, pull this blog back up…or recommend it to a friend. Okay? Cool beans! Now, back to those who may be growing a little weary in [...]
