Magnificent Miles, Names & God

I already talked about depression multiple times, but today I wanted to start to talk about how I combatted it. You may notice that I am pretty comfortable with calling myself magnificent, so much that it has become my branding. I wanted to share where Magnificent Miles came from and how that changed my life.ContinueContinue reading “Magnificent Miles, Names & God”

My Spiritual Fast

I have been fasting intermittently for two weeks now. Isaiah 58 (Check Page 2 of the link) speaks on the purpose of a day of fasting, from God’s perspective, as a day of Celebration. I wanted to share my fasting method, schedule, reasoning, routine, and lessons so far from this new habit of mine.  My Fasting Method:ContinueContinue reading “My Spiritual Fast”

Resting in Him over Striving Alone

I completely had a different post ready to put up but I had a series of epiphanies and God gave me a potential answer to a question I’ve been wrestling with for months. It may not work out this way but God wants me to share this moment, uncertainty and all, to be a futureContinueContinue reading “Resting in Him over Striving Alone”

Plan of Action: Views on Gospel

This week has been filled with a lot of revelations and great moments involving God. I shared a my blessings and perspectives about the man upstairs. Continuing my plan of action series from Education and Family. I’m sharing a great way to think about Religion and my personal plans to further grow with Him. Keep in mind thatContinueContinue reading “Plan of Action: Views on Gospel”

Love God/Love Others

In conjunction to yesterday’s post about Religion versus Gospel, I recently have been reflecting about God’s messages in the Bible. I find it amazing how we tend to pick and choose what about God we want to make law and what to ignore. I’ve seen some really condescending responses about how God outlawed cutting your hair, piercings,ContinueContinue reading “Love God/Love Others”

Reader’s Choice: Religion versus Gospel

Why is religion such a taboo topic? Why do so many people have an aversion to hearing about spirituality, whether Christian or not? Why is it that everyone can listen to music with sex, drugs, violence, love, and friendship but God is going too far? Why is religion such a divisive subject for anyone toContinueContinue reading “Reader’s Choice: Religion versus Gospel”

Why We Struggle

I was down today. After overcoming so many barriers, I was still down on myself. I was down and doubting myself so hard, that God had to tell me himself, it’s okay. I will never shy away from my faith.  My relationship with God has saved my life multiple times but this was different. WhileContinueContinue reading “Why We Struggle”

In Honor of Martin

In honor of Martin Luther King’s Birthday, I wanted to write something about MLK’s legacy. I found myself at a lost for words from the mere scope of who he was as a man. So much can be said about his legacy and even the way his legacy has been used since his death. ManyContinueContinue reading “In Honor of Martin”

Reader’s Choice: Maintaining Faith

Once again, I’d like to say a quick thank you to @Unkle_Willi on Twitter for giving me a good topic to touch on today. Follow him. He’s super dope. Faith has steadily become more of an important topic in my life. As my writing has evolved and I matured, everything has started to trend backContinueContinue reading “Reader’s Choice: Maintaining Faith”

Coexistence with God

A story as old as time. Commonly debated and fought over to the point of exhaustion. It’s amazing that faith has become the scapegoat for hatred and all the world’s woes when central to the message is love. It’s almost as if the world is designed to stomp out any form of hope.
