A New Day 6/2010


How amazing is our God? That is, of course, a rhetorical question. We do not have the mental capacity to envision His greatness. I am so grateful for Him allowing me to wake up this morning. Recently, two people who were close to family and friends of mine passed away, within a week of each other. We are so mortal yet we have an immortal mindset. Not that we believe we will live forever but we really don’t think about death until it’s at our doorsteps. I’m not suggesting that we dwell on the fact that we could be gone at any moment. I just suggest we live life a little more purposeful. Be a blessing to someone. Make a mark, you’re mark, on this world. A small act of kindness, a smile, a hug, reaching out just to say “Hello, I was thinking of you,” can mean so much to a person. You never know what someone is going through. It’s so easy to harden your heart…this world can be so cold…but if you do - how can you experience all that life has to offer? Don’t close yourself off. We only live once. Make the most of it and enjoy this new day!

The Single Wife, Again...

Do you ever look back over your life and ruminate on the exact moment a monumental event happened in your life that made it change course? May 13, 2017 2:33PM Not again. This is what I thought as I looked down at a Snap Chat message from a woman who was claiming she was the girlfriend of the man I was currently dating, who happened to be sitting right next to me. I turned to him, "Who is this?" while holding the phone up to his face. He looked bewildered. "I don't know," he replied. The initial message read: Hello Aisha, are you of relation to Desmond Price? I was puzzled and turned to him. He looked clueless. I responded to her, "No, I'm not. Why?" I'm his girlfriend. My hands started to slightly quiver. She's his girlfriend? I looked into his eyes, searching for something, or anything to be quite honest to confirm that this was not true. How could she be his girlfriend if in the 3 years we've been dating (with a 6 month...

Finding Calm in the Chaos

I can't breathe. A man's final words that have become the mantra of a renewed civil rights movement; right on the back of a global pandemic. Our way of living has significantly changed forever. How do we find calm in all the chaos? Whether you're on the front-lines, side-lines or somewhere in between, you've been touched by the tragic events that have plagued our nation.  Chaos is natural - if you look at the world. It's everywhere - but to find you peace in the midst of chaos is something that you have to do for you. Life is unpredictable, if the year 2020 has shown us anything, it's that fact.

1 Corinthians 9 - Passage�Lookup - New International Version - BibleGateway.com

1 Corinthians 9 - Passage�Lookup - New International Version - BibleGateway.com This is really blessing me this morning as I read it. It's entitled "The Rights of an Apostle" Paul is letting us know what he could be doing but what he chooses to do to win souls. He's so serious about his mission; his purpose. He is a great example to me. A verse really stood out to me: "No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize." - 1 Corinthians 9:27 This empowers me and fortifies my sexual integrity. God is always on time. Let's beat our bodies and make them our slaves! I don't want to miss out on my prize! Do you?
