Everybody knows break-ups suck… …but there is hope for those who are willing to wait. A few months ago a friend confided in me about her brief encounter with “the one” that fizzled. I responded to her privately the following words…I’ve changed a few of the dynamics to ensure anonymity…

Last week, I vented. I remembered. I cried out in my soul on my son’s behalf. I’m glad to know that my candor helped someone other than myself. I, however, would be remiss in my ministry, if I failed to share how wrong I’d been with my assumptions. He did…

This morning as I drove my son to school for his last semester exam a radio commercial mentioned the upcoming holiday that I’ve had both the privilege and burden of bearing alone, Father’s Day. My son, simply stated, “Oh that’s right, this Sunday is Father’s Day!” …

Originally posted on A DEVOTED LIFE: “Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon, but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me.” John 8:49 We live in a land of experts. If we have a disease, we go to the hospital’s experts. If we want knowledge, we go to…

Today, I was reminded of a note I’d written a couple years ago on Facebook about healing…I felt compelled to share it again for those who may be experiencing pain, whether physical or emotional so please check out that link. God is still a healer. I’m the proof…not only have I…

When I think about the challenges I’ve faced as a single parent, I am comforted with the knowledge that God has been my Father and my children’s throughout every situation. In my weakness, He has been my strength. He alone blessed me with the first of my two miracles 16…

Here we go again. Yes, I woke this morning to and unfortunately not to my surprise a mound of laundry waiting for me. No it didn’t magically appear. I saw it the night before, yet I already had a load in the washer and another in the dryer so the…

The hunger. is a beautiful balance of reality and humility. I applaud this young lady’s heart. I can’t wait to see all God is getting ready to unlock for her! Read and be blessed!

Continue reading →: Duty Calls, but should you listen?
Most of my life I’ve had difficulty allowing the word “no” leave my lips. I’ve always volunteered. I like doing for others so I guess I’m a servant at heart. Well, Jesus exemplifies the ultimate servant and I’m glad for His example. Yes grateful, but admittedly hard-headed as I am, I haven’t always…

As I type this post, my fingers tremble. A different title came to mind while driving through torrential rain and hail yesterday morning. I’d planned a completely different angle of inspiration. I’d readied myself to be a hero for someone who’d been facing the metaphorical version of what I’d literally been a…
Hey Lovelies and Gents,
I’m Nadia
Welcome to my cozy corner of relational sanity. Once upon a time, I started a blog, but I was bound by codependency and low self-worth, so though I penned encouragement for others, I never really took my own advice. Fast forward nearly a decade later, I’ve revisited and finally fully embraced those tidbits of wisdom the Lord led me to express so many years ago. That said, I’m glad to catch up with myself and to help you release whatever has you bound. A word of caution, though: I’m holy, but I cuss a lil’ bit, so occasionally, there may be some colorful language, so please eat the meat and spit out the bones. Ensure the Lord sent you here so we can learn and grow together. I guess that’s a long enough intro for now. Until Later.
