MY FAMILY ERASED ME

Image
  There are wounds you can’t see with the naked eye—wounds that do not bleed, but ache. And one of the deepest is this: feeling erased by the people who share your blood. I never imagined I would wake up one day and feel like a stranger in the very family I once helped build, support, and love. But here I am—watching my brother, my sister, their kids, and even their grandkids move through life as if I’m no longer part of their world. It’s as if they’ve deleted me from the family album and scrubbed my name out of the memories. They interact with others freely. They celebrate milestones. They gather, laugh, take pictures. But with me? Silence. Distance. Avoidance. A cold, heavy nothing. And the hardest part isn’t the absence itself—it’s the message it sends: “You don’t matter. You’re invisible.” ✦ When Your Own Family Treats You Like You Don’t Exist People assume family pain only shows up in shouting matches, betrayal, or conflict. But sometimes the greatest heartbreak happens qu...

PLUG INTO GOD

Image
  There are some moments in life you don’t talk about easily. Some valleys don’t fit neatly into sermons or speeches. Some nights are too dark to testify about until God drags you out into the light. I’ve lived through nights like that. Nights when the mind whispers lies so loudly you almost forget they are lies. Nights when the weight of disappointment sits on your chest like an iron gate. Nights when suicidal ideation doesn’t knock gently—it barges in, offers suggestions, and tries to sign your name to a contract hell wrote. If you've ever been there, hear me: you are not alone , and God is not intimidated by your valley. I remember one of those nights when everything around me felt heavy. People still saw the pastor… the leader… the encourager. But God saw the man who was tired. God saw the man who was wrestling. God saw the man who wasn’t dying— but desperately needed to live again. And instead of shame… and instead of judgment… and instead of “do better” sermons… G...

WHEN GOD READS YOU, IT BETTER NOT BE FICTION

Image
There is a moment in every believer’s life when God begins to read you. Not the version you present to people. Not the edited, polished, Public Relations version of your faith. Not the sanitized version of your struggles. He reads the real you. And when He does… it better not be fiction. Because God is not moved by the story you tell — He is moved by the truth you live . Heaven does not respond to imagination; Heaven responds to alignment . We live in a world addicted to performance. We perform faith, perform strength, perform surrender. But God does not turn the pages of your performance. He turns the pages of your heart . And here’s the supernatural revelation: God’s Word is not fiction — so your life cannot be either. When God speaks, His Word pierces dimensions. It creates universes. It calls dry bones to stand up like an army. It causes the dead to breathe again. It rewrites human impossibility with divine certainty. So when He reads you, He is searching for a life that matches...

A SUPERNATURAL LOOK AT THE MEASURE OF FAITH WE'VE ALL BEEN GIVEN

Image
  When we enter this world, we don’t just arrive with breath in our lungs and purpose in our DNA — we arrive with faith already wired into our spirit. Romans 12:3 tells us: “God has dealt to every man the measure of faith.” Not some people. Not church people. Not spiritual experts. Every single person. Faith is a built-in spiritual operating system — but here’s the mystery: 🔹 Faith is not automatically positive. 🔹 Faith is not automatically spiritual maturity. 🔹 Faith doesn’t automatically point toward God. Faith, in its raw form, is expectation. The supernatural question becomes: What are you expecting? Faith: A Neutral Gift With Directional Power Faith is like a river. God supplies it — but you choose the direction it flows. Some direct their faith toward: God’s character His Word His promises His nature Others — often without realizing — direct it toward: Fear Doubt Trauma Past failures The enemy’s lies Both require belief. One produces ...

SUPERNATURALLY GRACED

Image
  There are moments when I pause and look back over my life—and I can’t help but shake my head in awe. Not because I had everything figured out. Not because I was perfect. Not because I made every right decision. But because GRACE REFUSED TO LET ME DIE IN WHAT WAS MEANT TO DESTROY ME. If I’m honest, I should have been broken beyond repair. I should have been silent. I should have been another statistic—emotionally, spiritually, mentally, even socially. But God stepped into my story—not with judgment, not with condemnation, but with supernatural, disruptive, unstoppable grace. And like Paul, I can boldly say: “But by the grace of God, I am what I am.” — 1 Corinthians 15:10 🔥 Grace Didn’t Just Save Me — Grace Transformed Me Grace didn’t just pull me out — it repositioned me. Grace didn’t just rescue me — it reconstructed me. Grace didn’t just forgive me — it assigned me. There was a time when pain tried to define me, when past experiences tried to label me, when br...

THE WHITE STONE

Image
There are moments in Scripture that interrupt our thinking—not with fear, not with warning, but with wonder. One of those moments is found tucked in a message to the church in Revelation: “To the one who overcomes… I will give some of the hidden manna. And I will give that person a white stone with a new name written on it, known only to the one who receives it.” —Revelation 2:17 (NIV) A white stone. A secret name. A heavenly exchange. A promise reserved for the one who overcomes. For years, I read that and kept moving… intrigued, but not changed. But then there came a season—one of spiritual battles, transition, and deep refining—where God wouldn’t let me move past those words. I started asking: What does the white stone mean—biblically, spiritually, and personally? And what I discovered wasn’t just theology. It was identity. It was destiny. It was healing. It was personal . 📌 The White Stone Represents Acceptance and Vindication In ancient courts, jurors voted with stones. ...

YOU CAN PRAY ALL YOU WANT...BUT HOLINESS STILL MATTERS

Image
  We live in a culture where prayer has become casual conversation—quick, rushed, squeezed in between notifications, traffic lights, and busy schedules. And while God hears every cry, every whisper, and every desperate plea… there’s a powerful truth many of us don’t want to face: Prayer without holiness is like knocking on a door you’re not prepared to enter. The Bible makes this painfully clear. In the Old Testament, the presence of God wasn’t something people walked into casually. In fact, the sons of Aaron—Nadab and Abihu—went before the Lord without reverence, without obedience, and without holiness. The scripture says: “So fire came out from the presence of the Lord and consumed them, and they died before the Lord.” — Leviticus 10:2 They weren’t killed because God was cruel. They died because they approached a holy God in an unholy condition. Holiness wasn’t optional—it was required. We Want Blessings… But Do We Want Purity? We pray for breakthrough, but ignore con...
