The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy Name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, As it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive them that trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, The power, and the glory, For ever and ever.
Amen.
God is truly a miracle worker. Here I stand in awe, so blessed to share with you our very first issue of 2023! So much has happened since my last letter — a waiting period where I’ve seen God working so incredibly. All praise to Him, He has renewed my eyes and given me more clarity. When God gives you a vision, we often have to step out in faith, but that doesn’t mean we won’t face challenges and setbacks. He often needs us to refine or hone the path to our purpose — in order to align with His plan. When He directed me to set this magazine in motion, I was so excited and made a host of decisions along the way, some that took us a bit off course. There’s no greater way than God’s way, and even when we get off track, God has a beautiful and intentional way of using all things for His good. No matter the test or trials, I encourage you to wait on Him, trust Him as I have, and He will Blow Your Mind as well! I’ve gained a fresh, new love for Mind Blowing Magazine. Now, it’s by no coincidence that I’m presenting to you “The Love & Relationships Issue.”
I’m so honored to introduce our cover star, the gorgeous Alexis Skyy. When she walks into a room, everyone stops and stares …. Yes! She's absolutely breathtaking, but her internal light shines so bright. In her article she shares her new relationship with God and how He is transforming her from the inside out. Her story is so powerful and everyone can relate. I know you’ll be left feeling inspired and encouraged as I was. OMG!! Her cover feature spread is EVERYTHING. Alexis knows how to work that camera … lol … her photos are STUNNING! Oh, and if that’s not enough, we have as our “Let Your Light Shine'' feature the notorious Tai Beauchamp, a true powerhouse. And if that’s not enough, I am so excited to introduce to you our new contributors … Amanda Brown, Kristina Bowman Smith, Brittany Moore, Phylea Carter and Christina Johnson! All of these women are remarkable and have blessed me beyond measure; I’m so grateful!
Please be sure to also check out “Restoring Honor” by Brelyn Bowman. This devotional offers a beautiful teaching on marriage and how you can have a relationship with value and honor — it's the promise of God! What a peace to know that everything belongs to Him. When you have a relationship with God, you’ll continue to grow in His love, which will reflect in every relationship you have. Thank you to every feature focus and contributor. And thank you to every reader — I pray you will hear the hearts of each contributor and experience many breakthrough moments. That’s what The MB Mag is all about, and I so appreciate all your love and support!
