Coming out of the month of February, I began asking God to lead me. I had some serious decisions to make concerning my business and I needed clarity. I was looking for God to give me a blueprint, instructions, or even a vision of what I specifically needed to do. I felt that my next move would be lucrative and impactful if my prayers produced a step by step guide for how to navigate.

From as far back as biblical times, and throughout early civilizations, There has always been an honor, a privilege and an intimacy assigned to being seated at a table. Being invited to a table denotes exclusive access to people and to information. It implies the breaking of bread over the exchange of ideas and opportunities.

Living in a world of constant change can easily erode the values that are embedded in our spirits. When life seems to take on the opinion of pop culture as being truth, we often miss the slight shifts that come to our belief systems, and how over time those shifts can produce negative impact.

There’s an obsession around the idea of “overnight success”. Pop Culture loves being astounded by the gifts, talents, knowledge, and impact of individuals who’ve somehow garnered attention, and have seemingly come out of nowhere. We love feeling like we’re collectively placing a stamp of approval on an idea, a business, or even an individual.

The river has the ability to touch items that are unseen. Just like spirit. Just like love.
