26…A New Chapter
I cannot believe that I am officially 26! The night before my birthday, I sat on my couch alone in my apartment reflecting on my 25th year of life with God. As I did, tears began to fall because I realized that I am not the same person anymore. I have grown and learned so much, but most importantly, I have healed and discovered who I am. What did the year 25 do for me? It allowed me to take a pause. For the past seven years for as long as I could remember, I worked and went to school nonstop throughout the school years and summers. I did not…

Dating God’s Way
*This post is for those who are serious about dating God’s way.* God never said no to dating. He never said no to being in a relationship. What I believe God wants is for you to be intentional. We have to be a generation that stops playing games with people’s hearts. If you are not ready for commitment, then you have no business dating or being in a relationship. If you are ready for the commitment, then the next question you need to ask yourself is, ‘What is the purpose of me dating and being in a relationship?” If you are looking for validation, approval, and/or acceptance, then, you are…

What Makes The Story Of Esther Beautiful
If you never saw the movie, “One Night with the King”, I highly recommend you watch it. It is such a beautiful story that depicts a woman who has been chosen and set apart by God. God never sets people like you and I aside even though we may feel that way many times. He sets us apart in a way in which we cannot go where others get to go or do what others get to do. When God places you on a path that is different than those around you, it is for a specific reason, and the story of Queen Esther reveals why. She shows the beauty…

The Truth About Sex
The very act of sex has become distorted. From the shows and movies we watch, to the books we read, to the music we listen too. There is nothing godly about the way sex is portrayed today. I never had sex but I know that God has been showing me His truth about it little by little so that I can continue waiting it out because truthfully, it gets hard sometimes. I know people who wanted to wait but gave in because of the struggle of waiting. However, I believe that when you know the truth about something, it will make you want to wait. So let me share with…

Single Season Mistakes
I think it is safe to say that as singles, we make a lot of mistakes during our season of singleness. Are you making the same mistakes that I have been making? Check them out below! Comparison… I would compare myself to everyone. Everywhere I looked, whether it was at church, in my family, with my friends, at school, at work, everybody seemed to be in a relationship. As a result of what I saw, i genuinely used to believe that I wasn’t attractive and pretty enough, and that something was wrong with me, and that was the reason as to why I was single. This mindset was dangerous because…

25 And A Virgin
I am a 25 year old single virgin. I have never dated or been in any kind of a relationship with a guy. My only experience was in 11th grade where I kissed a guy maybe 3 or 4 times. He was the first guy that ever liked me but we never dated or made anything official. It felt so nice having someone like me in that romantic way because I was always the friend who did not “have it like that” the way my other friends did. Guys never had any romantic interest in me growing up so when the guy confessed that he liked me in high school,…
