Like a well-loved library, this space carries history, color, and the marks of becoming.

Some pieces are playful, some contemplative, some written by seasons long past.

All are kept with care.

Healing requires honesty—even when honesty reveals that reconciliation isn’t possible.

This is not a story about giving up.
It’s a story about choosing clarity over endurance, integrity over proximity, and truth over illusion.

Because right when my heart broke, the healing began.

how beginnings find you

There comes a moment when staying takes more effort than leaving. This reflection explores exits not as failures, but as sacred thresholds — invitations to release what’s complete and trust what’s ahead. Not every ending is a loss. Some are divine assignment.

At the turning point of the year, light begins its quiet return. This reflection explores what it means to stop apologizing for who you are and trust the process of becoming.

blessed are the peacemakers

Worry isn’t always about care — sometimes it’s fear dressed up as responsibility.

When we try to manage outcomes, smooth discomfort, or carry everyone else’s emotions, our peace slowly erodes.

Today is an invitation to release what was never assigned to you and rediscover the clarity that comes with true peacemaking.

the one constant in life {change}

Change can feel disruptive and deeply personal—especially in seasons marked by loss, uncertainty, or completion.

Today we explore how to honor what is ending, trust what is unfolding, and remember that renewal and transformation begin inside dark cocoons and spaces where old skins are shed.

Sharita Bent Sharita Bent

that’s why we pray

Prayer isn’t just a ritual or a moment of quiet reflection.
It’s the channel where your voice meets divine guidance,
where a restless heart finds alignment,
and unfinished chapters are gently placed in God’s care.

Prayer doesn’t ask you to pretend life is perfect.
It invites you to bring your truth.

the rest is still unwritten

Life isn’t written for you—it’s written by you. Even in messy chapters or seasons of doubt, God has entrusted you with the pen.

Today’s reflection invites you to reclaim your story and take ownership for the parts you’ve played so you can release what no longer serves you, and step more fully into the next chapter.

on the idols we worship and serve

In a culture that asks us to perform, conform, and constantly prove our worth, it’s easy to lose track of what we’re actually living for.

Today we explore the quiet ways worship becomes misplaced and consider a gentle and liberating return to what grounds us. This post is a meditation on faith, belonging, and how we possess the courage to live from alignment rather than for approval.

hope comes in the morning

Hope isn’t naïve optimism — it’s spiritual discernment. It’s knowing what you can carry and that you cannot carry what belongs to God.

In a world full of collective anxiety and global grief, this post explores how to keep holding onto hope, why it matters, and how to tend to it until morning breaks.

fear is a liar.

On Day 7 of Wake Pray Slay, we explore how even the smallest flame within us can pierce the longest night. The world can feel heavy, chaotic, and fearful, but your light is stronger than you think.

on forgiveness

on forgiveness

I am done rehearsing the hurt.
I am done carrying what isn’t mine.
I am done shrinking under the weight of someone else’s actions.

And I choose to rise.

Not because they deserve it —
but because I do.

it’s advent season

“I don’t look like what I’ve been through” is both my testimony and my superpower—and in this piece, I unpack the spiritual, emotional, and identity-centered work that helped me reclaim my voice, return to myself, and rise with softness and strength.

This post also opens the door to a transformational series inspired by Wake Pray Slay—a journey of faith, mindset, and practical self-leadership that’s designed to be meaningful year-round, yet holds a special depth during Advent season when we slow down, tune in, recalibrate, and align.
