Creating, Committing, and Practicing Our Best Selves by Ms. Christal Brown

If you are not a dancer, you may envision a rehearsal process as a place where dancers run through their routines over and over until they have reached some sort of perfection. In actuality, the rehearsal process is one of discovery. I liken rehearsal rooms to laboratories. The root word of laboratory is labor; the physical activity involved in giving birth.

In the Midst of It All by Mrs. Stephanie Allen-Gobert

But it gets better! Once I realized that God said in His Word, “And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity” (Colossians 3:14), I had to fight for my marriage. I had to remind myself that I had made a vow, and it was up to me to decide how much I truly respected and honored those vows and the love I have for God and my husband. Do I still feel hurt and betrayed at times? Yes! But in the midst of it all, I try to stay encouraged and remember that Lord is right there with me, and He makes no mistakes.

I thought I had to be completely healed before I could share my story, but in all actuality, it’s important for me to tell you how much God has done for me through this tragedy (Mark 5:19). The scars remind me of the surgery, but also of God’s capability to heal, restore, sustain, and change your situation to His narrative.

Waiting is hard... like really hard by Mrs. Heidi Noel Lawton

Maybe there was a reason that I couldn't find the right man, or maybe there was a reason why my relationships usually ended in a bad way. My heart was sad and at times bitter, but it was during that season of waiting that God taught me a good deal about myself and about how to wait.
