Slow Mornings are The Best Mornings

Hey, 
I hope you're having a great day today. I wanted to write this blog post to emphasize the importance of slowing down. Recently, I've noticed that my body has been feeling weary and tired. It has gotten to the point where it has affected my work ethic and energy. Here are some takeaways/ strategies that I remember:

1. Get needed rest. I would rush to get up first thing in the morning to edit content and complete tasks that are on my to-do list. Now, I sleep in until my body tells me to wake up. I no longer rush to edit content or even complete tasks that are on my to-do list.

2. No need to rush.  I remember I would rush in the morning to get to work early enough. Yes, wake up and get ready on time for work... you still want to take your time and not rush. It will help you to keep your mind at peace and keep you sane. I like to tell myself that I am on God's timing and not on the timing of man. This keeps my focus on God guiding me through the morning and getting me to my destination safe. 

3. Go to bed early. This is something my mom has suggested this new year that I turn in early to get ready for bed. During this time, I take out my outfit while doing my nightly skincare routine and reading a book before bed.  I can tell you that reading a book is much better before going to bed than going on your phone. 

With these three takeaways, I can see the difference with my body and work ethic.  I'm currently working on my new schedule with regards to work, but I'm getting the hang of having slow mornings and being on God's timing. What do you do to have slow mornings?

When Hearts Touch

Hey,  I'm here with my first movie recommendation. It's called When Hearts Touch. This animated movie is based on a book that was already published in Nigeria. This movie is about a 9-year-old boy in a village who did not have money, but he had his parents which kept him happy. Sadly, both parents passed on...leading to Preye's struggle. During the struggle, Preye was searching for food...sometimes he would look for a job and receive food as part of his payment. It wasn't until Preye met the farmer when his life began to change. Here's a movie trailer so you could get a sneak preview 😊.  If you would like to watch this movie, you can find it on Tubi.

Vanities

Hey, [ Started November 28th, 2025] I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving with loved ones. I know I was happy to spend quality time with family away from social media (this is the first year where I did not post the antics, but instead used my digital camera to capture memories) . During this month, I decided to read the book of Ecclesiastes that was recommended by my sister. I can say that as of November 28th, I'm halfway through the book and there's a lot of takeaways that I've taken in during my Bible Study. In the first six chapters, Solomon tells readers about what is considered vanity. I noticed that there was a trend among these chapters... and that is going after money and other worldly possessions. When I read through the first six chapters, my eyes were opened with what was vain.  I talked about this previously in a podcast episode that I used to consume a lot of items that was not connected with my spiritual walk. Since then, I've gotten rid of those items...

Be Still by Cece Winans

 Hey,  I hope you're having a great day today. In this blog post, I will sharing with you a song by none other than Cece Winans on being still and having God intervene in your life and move the pieces :). Below is the video, please enjoy.  In Psalm 46:10 from the Bible, it states "Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted into the earth." We, as God's children, need to be still for God is the true ruler of the Heavens and the earth and will have all things work out for our good. I will also share with you the lyric version below as well. Have a great day :).
