I’m Still Here!

This day of every year, I’m always filled with such emotion. Thankfulness, mainly. Thirty-one years ago this day, I was face to face with a crack addicted armed robber. I wish the “scene of the crime” was limited to that face to face encounter but it extended to a car ride to another ATM with this gunman and conversations that…

What’s Your Strategy???

“When He had disarmed the rulers and authorities (Satan), He made a public display of them, having triumphed over them through Him (Christ).” – Colossians 3:15. Since last night, I keep thinking about the portion of the 49ers/Cowboys game I watched (the last 3 minutes of the 4th quarter). My mind keeps circling back to the actions of their coaches…

How Far Will You Go to Get the Trash Out?

Posted on September 24, 2020 by Dywuana Morris

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. 30 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, with whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. 31 Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and…

Walking in Authority

Although the New Year is in a very simple sense waking up to a new day, the walking into a “new year” when bumped up against one of the most turbulent years, not only in personal lives, but politics, which then ripples to international relations, economies and even race relations opens up mental pathways of hope as we yell, “Out…

It Takes a Village!

Today is the 3 year anniversary of my daughter’s acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord of her life. Wow…what a difference 3 years make. Often, when prior year pictures pop up it amazes me how much she’s changed. Sometimes the reflections of the harder parts of our lives that have had a toll on her cause me to feel guilt…

Take the Day Off!

While preparing for bed last evening, I began my nightly routines. Many of them involve a “personal grooming” of sorts as I begin to put my body in a place of rest. Over the last few days I have been seeking God for clarity in some areas of my life and it was if while standing in front of…

Break………..Fast………….Break!

I’m recognizing that one of the best gifts I keep giving myself is that of a “break”. When you are burnt out on a job or hurt from a failed relationship of any kind, one of the best things you can do for yourself is give yourself a “break”- a time to heal, a time to reflect not on the…

The Table Before Me

As I sat and reviewed the highlight’s from last night’s NFL game between the Colts and the Jets, I couldn’t have had a prouder moment. While the game was already decided, it was nice to see my nephew, an Indianapolis Colt, make an interception against the team who had cut him earlier this year, to seal the game’s final score which…

Let it Stay Like it Is

The other day, my daughter and I, in our usual rush for school headed out the door and just as I was backing out, my purse fell over from the center console to the backseat floor. My daughter, who is always so helpful in times like these, reached to grab the purse to pick it up but in my wisdom,…

Glass Break

Posted on November 6, 2016 by Dywuana Morris

Picture this-two people sitting in the front seat of a car. No matter how fancy the car, by design, than can only remain so far apart. In general, two people riding in the front seat of any vehicle together are in close proximity. Now picture-an invisible barrier that divides the vehicle symmetrically from front to back-a barrier so thick that…
