Verse of the Week

"(16) So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. (17) For the flesh desires what is contrary to the spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want."
- Galatians 5:16-17

Verse of the Week

"(34) Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: 'Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. (35) For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it.'"

Verse of the Week

"Just as Death and Destruction are never satisfied, so human desire is never satisfied."
- Proverbs 27:20

Keep this verse in mind when making decisions with the mindset that once you do it, you will be contempt. Your human desire will never be quenched, and that is why we must learn to fight it. Instead, thirst and hunger for God.

That’s My Best Friend, Who’s Also My Bae?

“­My best friend. My best friend.” The person that holds that special place in your heart. Not a sibling. Not a cousin. But a best friend. That person obviously holds that title because they play a significant, and beneficial, role in your life in more ways than one. But have you ever had a time when you wanted more than just a close friendship? I mean, clearly you love their company, the conversations you all have, their personality, and overall, who they are as a person; they would seem like a great choice! But are they? I’m sure the thought of starting a relationship with a best friend has crossed some of our minds at some point, but we probably never acted on it. Why is that?

Congratulations - We Made It

I want to take a second to congratulate all the individuals graduating this season, including myself! It is not an easy achievement to be graduating from college, graduate school, med school, law school, or even high school. But you overcame the odds, the stereotypes, the people who doubted you, and the obstacles placed before you, and are standing here today as a graduate! Be proud of your accomplishment and savor the moment. And good luck with everything moving forward. You are destined for great things. 🙏
