    Who am I, she asked? I answered my name was Hannah. Pt. 2

    December 23, 2016 /

    I hear the driver’s side door slam. Somehow every sound seems as if it has been amplified and colors around me are in high-definition since I woke up this morning. Today I was released from the hospital and am all loaded up in my husband Oji’s car. As soon as Ms. Dot had wheeled me outside to meet him, he grabbed my suitcase and the tote I carried on my lap. I get up slowly to thank and hug her for motherly watching over me the last couple of days. She finally releases me to my husband’s care, giving him a few last-minute instructions, including in which the advice that…

    It’s Your Time by Joel Osteen (In Progress Book Review)

    August 9, 2013 /

    This post is for my fellow bookworms.  My current book of focus is by Joel Osteen and is entitled “It’s Your Time – Activate Your Faith, Achieve Your Dream, and Increase in God’s Favor”.  I originally purchased the book shortly after it came out in 2009. Pastor Joel’s ministry is one of the ones I follow and receive regular communications from.  His simple yet profound message of “Hope and Faith” resonates with my Spirit and so I have been following him and his wife Victoria since I first heard of them through my pastors, Dr. Creflo A. and Taffi L. Dollar. I am currently only a third of the way…

    May 15, 2013 /

    This past Sunday as my husband and I were leaving our home to do a few errands; we were confronted with a not so cute scene on our front porch.  It was a still and lifeless baby sparrow.  Evidently, the poor little thing had attempted to fly.  Instead, it fell beak first from its nest and landed where we found it. After the initial shock, of our discovery we prepared to remove it.  As we worked together to picked it up and put it away, I thought about the powerful statement the little bird had made with its actions. Even though, it had clearly failed at its first attempt at…
