After I watched the movie, “This Ends With Us” I found myself asking the same question—what must end with me? Some families pass down wealth, thriving businesses, or a legendary sweet potato pie recipe. Others? We inherit generational trauma, bad tempers, and the fine art of pretending everything is fine when it’s clearly not.

Driving around and around the parking lot at my doctor’s office, my stress level started rising as the clock inched closer to my 9:00 a.m. appointment. Every space seemed to be taken, except for one tantalizingly open spot marked “Reserved for The Pain Clinic.” Now, I wasn’t going to The Pain Clinic, but I sure was feeling some pain as I debated whether or not to park there.

The Hebrew word “Kadosh” means “holy” or “set apart.” It reminds us of God's unmatched purity and perfection. At a recent conference, I heard the song Kadosh. As I engaged in worship, I could feel the Holy Spirit moving in and through the atmosphere, saturating the space with His presence.

Let’s be real. If God had a fashion show, the “Armor of God” would absolutely steal the runway. Forget Gucci or Prada—this is divine couture, designed for victory in life’s spiritual battles. The best part? One size fits all, and it’s always in season. But here’s the catch: you’ve actually got to put it on. It doesn’t just hang in your prayer closet, looking good for Sunday mornings.

A few months ago, I noticed one of my backyard plants bent over like it had just pulled an all-nighter or lost a fight with gravity. I assumed it was just reaching for sunlight, like someone stretching for the last slice of pizza on a crowded table.

The parent group chat was unusually lively tonight, buzzing with constant vibrations and notifications. Curious, I opened my phone to see what the commotion was about. Turns out, the kids had a Social Studies test the next morning, and parents were in a frenzy trying to figure out where the practice test was hiding online. Amid all this chaos, my daughter seemed unnervingly calm—cool as a cucumber, I tell you.
