Working Around The Abyss

Working Around The Abyss

Comments 2 comments

We sometimes fall into an abyss- an immeasurably dark and bottomless hole, which at times can appear as a place of no return. Death, disappointments, or discouragement could take us there. We might descend into it gradually because of a series of events. Sometimes, a single action could cause that downward spiral. Elijah found himself in such an abyss that he desired death. After having a momentous mountaintop experience, he went deep into the desert of discouragement- literally, figuratively, emotionally…

I recently came across this picture of myself taken at the tender age of fifteen. Looking into my eyes with that hint of a smile, one could not have anticipated what the future held for me.  Shortly after this photo was taken, the smile on my face would be dimmed with pain, heartache, and disappointment. I would sink so deep into despair; I attempted to take my own life.   Eventually, ending up in foster care, my future filled with uncertainty….

I saw a meme stating, “Summer clocked out right at the end of its shift.” Ain’t that the truth! Fall is officially here in New England; the trees have begun shedding their leaves. However, leaves aren’t the only thing falling… For the past year, I’ve been experiencing some falling away, personally and in ministry. This falling away has caused me sadness, tears, and a longing for things to stay the same. However, we are told there is a time and…

I’m still here! I know – It’s been several months since my last blog post. It wasn’t because I had nothing to say. On the contrary, with so much happening in our world today, there is no shortage of topics for discussion. However, whenever I forced my butt into the chair to write, I realized I didn’t have the desire to. As days turned into weeks and months, I kept telling myself I needed to post to my blog. But…

He reveals mysteries from the darkness and brings the deepest darkness into the light.Job 12:22 If I had to give a medal to the person in the Bible who experienced utter darkness, I would give the award to Job.    The Bible declares Job a righteous man who was walking in the light. And, when you have been in the light, being in the dark takes on a whole new meaning.  When darkness comes, it brings chaos and confusion. Once you…

Remaining Thankful

It’s November 29th, and to many, Thanksgiving is over as they prepare for Christmas. In some cases, others have been preparing from the day after Halloween.  But if the last 18 months has taught me anything, it is this- Savor Each Moment And Remain Thankful.  So instead of getting caught up in Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals, the hustle and bustle of the world’s take on Christmas, I want to use this time to remain thankful. In no specific order, I’m…

It was a Sunday morning, and the sun was shining brilliantly as I entered the hospital for a routine examination. I was pregnant with twins and had been on bed rest for several weeks.  But, as I walked into the hospital, there was a pep in my step.  I was looking forward to the baby shower planned for the twins later that day.  However, upon examination, I was informed that one was under duress, and I needed an immediate C-section. …

I don’t know what’s happening in your life right now but, here are some words to assure you that no Friday the 13th, no karma, no bad luck, no voodoo, no obeah, no spirits can harm us, as God’s Beloved.  BLOOM John 14:20 tells us, “On that day you will know that I am in my Father, you are in me,…

The Place of “In-Between”

Have you ever experienced a time or place of drought?  When that person, place, or thing you counted on, has dried up, and is no longer productive. The marriage you thought would last a lifetime – dried up.  The friendship you thought would go on indefinitely – dried up. The career you invested time and energy in – dried up. The finances you saved for a rainy day or retirement – dried up. Well, after 15 years of working for…
