Courageous and Strong

Hello all ! I want to start off by introducing myself. I am Althea, and I am a blogger. I started my blog back in 2019 and am now revising and updating. As, A blogger I hope to continue to encourage, uplift, relate, receive feedback and give feedback all at the same time! When I first began my blog website my sole purpose was because I wanted to write about my journey of motherhood. I am still planning to write about my boys, but also share other content like topics from my books. Oh yeah, if you don’t know I am a self-published Author of 3 books, so I plan to share, along with other topics that maybe laid upon my heart and mind to share. As a mother there are many things I can share. For example, how big my boys are now. My oldest will be going to 4th grade, middle will be going to 1st this year and our Babyboy will be 3 years old in a few weeks. I re-entered into the working force after our youngest was born. I wasn’t a stay at mom for long. I am also almost done with my master’s degree. Since, my beliefs have not changed. I still truly believe that being a mother is worth the wild and being a mom while working still has it challenges. I’m looking forward to writing through experience and also sharing stories that incorporate scriptures that will help us all in our journeys as mothers or mothers to be! I also look forward to sharing my books, and biblical principal.

Cheers to revisions of my blog website:  

“Cheers to my first post about Motherhood written in 2019”


Courageous and Strong


Motherhood, what can we say? Is there one exact word to describe the experience?! To me there isn’t …. but MANY! Every day is different, from the time we conceive to the time we see our sons and daughters graduate and go to college. We each have our own unique experiences and stories, and even our very on struggles and challenges. As, I begin to enter into motherhood a third time I know there will be times I feel I’ve got it and times I feel like “what is this” but most importantly I’ll have to mustard up my strength and be strong for those faces looking to me. As a believer of Jesus Christ I know that children are a gift from God. I know that motherhood is rewarding and not everyone that desires the experience gets it. I know that there are words of wisdom given to us to help us raise, nurture and help us with our children. 


Psalms 127:3 tells us how lovely children are “Lo, children [are] an heritage of the LORD: [and] the fruit of the womb [is his] reward. 


Being a mother is rewarding , it takes so much courage and so much strength. Some of us go through the pregnancy with many struggles and wonders hoping for the best. We wonder how we will make it, or what he or she will be like, what features they will have. It takes so much courage not knowing but all along just having faith that they will be that beautiful creation that we are promised through the word of God. They are our reward and heritage. Some of us also face the reality of timing, not really being prepared or not getting that change to plan, but one thing for sure is “God’s timing” and that is everything! Even when we truly can’t understanding. Through our tiredness, our adjustments, our moments when we want to explode, our joyous moments, and every other exciting times our job is to be courageous and strong. We have to except and receive what we are given and then take care of them with the best of our abilities. One thing we all know is “Motherhood doesn’t come with a handbook.”Sometimes we don’t even know how we will do it, but we are graced to get through it. When we are brave we can conquer, and when we are strong we can endure. Most importantly with God on our sides and as our anchor we can make it! Be courageous and strong! 


Dear God, 


I pray from every mother around the world. I pray for their womb as they have conceived, and the wombs of those who have delivered. I pray for those who aren’t able to as they desire. I pray you give strength to her right we’re she lays and or stand. Father through you we can do all things. Through you we can conquer parenting and motherhood. Working and or staying at home we can make it. Father I pray for the both single and or married mothers, and I pray that all mothers will receive the help that they need. When they need breaks cause your spirit of peace to fill the room, when they feel overwhelmed cause your spirit of rest to flow through them. Father our children are our heritage and you have allowed us the time with them that you saw fit. Help us to be women that encourage, share, and uplift one another and we say thank you now In Jesus Name we pray Amen! 

“Capacity in Relationships”

Hello lovelies and gents. It’s Spring and that means spring showers. I have something I want to share.

As, I was worshipping one day, I began to speak to the Lord about capacity, a word I thought about as I thought back about the people and relationships that I’ve encountered. What I realized while reflecting, is that I’ve spent a lot of time fearing what people can do to me, blocking them out of my life, and seeing them from the wrong lenses. I’ve spent time in fear that old things could come back again, I spent time trying to keep old people away because I did not want my growth interfered with. I did not want what I know yo become entangled with their capacity or what I know as the last place we left off, to affect what I knew God was doing in my life. I did not want them to have influence or say over me.

But as I lay thinking and meditating I came to the realization in the moment that people are people. I came to the realization that true growth can’t be taken, and that God’s ability to heal my heart from disappointment, shame, and guilt are real. I realized the people that I once knew live life from their level of capacity. It is their level of capacity that drives and fuel them but their level of capacity isn’t my level of capacity. It isn’t my journey.

As I lay truly gripping the fact that and importance of seeing people as people I felt freedom in my heart. I felt freedom from the thoughts that kept me bound for years, fear of the old coming back, fear of someone saying something that goes against what I believe, fear crippling true freedom. As I recognized what took place in the moment I realized that it is important to see people from their place of capacity. Not commonalities, not by what makes me feel good, but truly from their place of capacity.

There is freedom in understanding people’s level of capacity. That which they are able or willing to give. That which they show up as. Capacity as in their ability and willingness to expand themselves. A person’s level of capacity reveals how much they will show up in the relationship that you begin to occupy with them. Sometimes this capacity isn’t seen until later on in or after the relationship has ended but their capacity reveals who and what they are.

Capacity can be looked at based upon what a person knows or by what they know and are willing to do with what they know. It can always be seen in their efforts, character, and determined ability. It is what makes or breaks relationships.

Some relationships don’t last long because of two peoples capacities. You can’t have one putting in work while the other slacks off, your can’t have one more willing to adjust while another stays the same it creates imbalance and when their is imbalance the one stronger will always feel weighted down because of the imbalance the other brings. But, what the imbalance reveals is that person’s capacity to contribute, their own ability, and their unwillingness to apply what they know along with effort. Capacity contributes to relationships.

With light and love ❤️

“Isolation as a Tactic”

Hello lovelies and gents! I have something to say today, so let’s dive in.

As I was pondering I began to think about the term “isolation” and began to wonder whether isolation is a good or bad thing. I’ve often heard it preached that isolation is good when God wants to elevate a person, or a great way to spend time with God, but it is also not good because it is used as a tactic to deceive and hurt believers. The question came to me as I was lying. “Is isolation a death trap?” As I thought further I began to think to myself that it could be. So, I did research and began to read that isolation is used as away for the enemy to draw believer away from the will of God and community. It is also used as a tactic to discourage and create thought traps keeping believers away from truth causing them to fall into a lie.

Isolation is defined as separation from others often resulting in loneliness, vulnerability, or punishment.

There are times in our lives that isolation is used as solitude for one to hear and spend time with God. Biblical separation is often a call for believers as a set a part people. Typically leading to God’s purpose.

Unhealthy separation is often associated with intentional separation. In this case separation is not good because of the bodies need for community and accountability.

We are called to dwell amongst our brethren, to love one another, and to confess our faults to one another. In doing so we can edify and build one another up in love and admonishing. We are supposed to love one another and when incidents happen that we cause offense we are supposed to apologize and forgive one another.

Oftentimes hurt, pain, and unforgiveness keep us away from truly following after the will of our father. It keeps us away from loving our brothers and sister, and keeps us away from edifying and building one another up as we ought too. Often times because of culture many are tearing others down, waiting for another to fall, and often sine go as far as plying and planning against others to see them diminished and dead.

As believers and children of God we must repent from evil and wickedness that resides in the hearts. Making decisions to turn back to God rather than towards hatred, covetousness, and envy against our brothers and sisters. True brothers and sisters don’t live life against one another but they share common faith in unity.

If you are someone in isolation for unhealthy reasons there are people who will love you, they will not try to hurt you, they will help restore you, pray for you, and uplift you in the name of Jesus.

Come out of unhealthy isolation and draw closer to God. You have been called for such a time as this. You have been called and chosen as one to help bring forth the goodness of God. Unhealthy Isolation is tactic to keep you stuck, unfree, unhealed, and undelivered. God is calling us to be free, healed, and delivered.

By God’s grace may you receive strength to try again. This time in the right community, among the right people with the right heart, the ability to see and hear you, and those who push you forward in the plans and will of God for his name sake.

If Isolation has been trying to get you down let’s connect and build healthy community together.

With light and love in Jesus Name!

“Honoring Women’s History Month”

Hello lovelies and gents!

In honor of women’s history month we are highlighting one of our books written for sisters/women:

“Golden Vessel” was published March 2025 and written to sisters. It was written as a book of twenty-three journal entries and prayers. Each journal entry and prayer was crafted with inspiration, encouragement, and hope for sisters in every season.

In honor of women’s history month we choose to lift our sisters by uplifting and inspiring through words. Here’s a short excerpt from

#6 He Gave You Great Hope

“Our Father is the Hope of glory, the Lamb that was slain, so worthy of honor. He gave you a great hope to believe and trust that everything He says will come to pass, and it will. You trust His words, and you see them manifest just as He promised. He is great, mighty, powerful, and never lets you down. You are never cast aside. Your hope in Him will never die.

When the unexpected doesn’t feel good, and when you’ve waited on prayers to be answered, you kept believing and trusting. You knew He would perform what He said He would. And after a while, you realized, you’re not alone. He’s right there with you, backing you up like never before. Your hope in Him has become the declaration that He is Lord above all.

You’ve trusted that everything happens in His perfect timing. You’ve believed for those around you, seeing the great need to pray for others. Your faith has been built upon the solid rock that is our Father. He gave you great hope because He believed in you. He trusted you to carry that hope and to see it come to pass.

Now, you’re seeing the one day you hoped for manifest before your eyes. You keep your head lifted high because your security is in Him and Him alone. In times of transition, you stood firm on His promises. You are a warrior, strong, fierce, capable, able, and willing.”

Old Version Vs New Version

Hello lovelies and gents. It’s black history month! It’s February! It’s a new day and a new Horizon!

Note: You are not a version of you that you’ve outgrown. You are not what others want you to be. You are strictly and positively who you believe.

Becoming is not easy and not worth. It’s overcoming cycles, patterns, norms, circumstances, and the like that had been for years. It’s maturing, learning growing, developing. It’s speaking and showing up when you don’t necessarily want to. It’s going through processings being honest, tuning in, and turning somethings inside out. It’s standing up against the old version and growing into matured unafraid, abd secured version. Its constant reality checks and constantly realizing what is, what’s no longer, and glimpse of what will be. Becoming is not easy but worth it.

Changing for better isn’t always but worth it and becoming is changing inward first and then outward. Becoming starts with a renewed mind, hope, faith, refined sense of purpose, and understanding. In the process of becoming you will wrestle against the old and new but it’s important to speak what is true, the new and the renewed. Becoming is not staying the same but learning to look ahead and welcome what has never been. Becoming is possible and it is possible when you believe and move forward.

With light and love ❤️

Moving Despite Traffic Jams

Hello lovelies and gents! Happy New Year, I don’t know about you but to me it seems as if the year came in strong. It’s week two how are you all feeling?

This morning as I was driving through traffic a word came to me. For the past two weeks I’ve encountered two traffic jams in which I had to make decisions.

I don’t know about you but when I encounter traffic jams I tend to panic slightly, between looking at the time and trying to get to my destinations. What I realized both times is that I had the option to go in another direction which would have changed my route, and duration either causing me to get to my destination later or earlier and I can imagine that it would’ve been longer.

What I learned in the moment is although I had the option choosing in a moment of chaos would have altered my path if I did not continue straight. While there was a traffic jam there was still room to keep going. While there was a traffic jam traffic was still flowing.

In life moving forward goes beyond slight traffic jams. Moving forward goes beyond choosing in chaotic moments. moving forward requires patience, persistence, and faith to keep going despite discomfort and circumstances beyond your control.

I want to encourage you today with a few scripture to keep going, be not weary in well doing, faint not, look ahead, don’t get distracted, don’t panic even when there are circumstances that are beyond your control. God is with you, working and fighting for you.

Galatians 6:9 Philippians 3:13-14 Isaiah 43:18-19
