How does God speak to you? ✝️
I met with a group of Christian friends yesterday & we talked a lot about how God speaks to us! And most often, it ISN’T an audible voice. God speaks to each one of us differently, because He created us all to be unique. Pray that He will reveal Himself to you! It takes time to learn God’s

Can guys and girl be best friends?
From my personal experience I’ve never had a guy friend, just stay a friend. My friendships with guys lasted years before they began getting too close. They would constantly find reasons to be touching me slightly. Or ways to hang out just us two without other friends.(both these times I was alread

How I realized My friend Wasn’t A Friend
I’m sure she’ll be a good friend to others but our friendship was so toxic even my sisters didn’t like her. And this was a 10+ year friendship! But you know, teen girls grow up eventually and sometimes we grow apart. #girlgrowth #lemon8challenge #friendship #embracevulnerability #black

I’m torn. My daughter handled it perfectly — she was like “WTF” when her friend said it — but I don’t want her hanging out with kids who have that kind of mindset. She’s only 8, and we’ve talked about racism before, even shared stories from my family’s experiences, but this felt like a real-life re

A quiet sense of loss
Some of my longest friendships didn’t fade because of a big fight. It was something small — a moment that made me realize our values didn’t line up the way I thought they did. In another season of life, we might’ve talked it through and moved on. But we weren’t in the same city anymore.
