Holy Spirit… You’re Stuck with Me and I AM Grateful


Celebrating the Holy Spirit’s faithfulness in my life! He’s stuck with me for life and that’s the best news of all. A reflection on divine partnership.

Being an Aquarian entrepreneur is a wild ride. We thrive on independence, bold ideas and the thrill of disrupting the status quo. But it also means we can be stubborn, distracted and restless. My experience, corporate life tested those traits and business ownership amplifies them.

Enter the Holy Spirit.


Unlike any investor or co-founder, He doesn’t ask for equity. He doesn’t show up only when the quarterly reports look good. His role is permanent! Jesus promised: “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you” (Acts 1:8). That power isn’t market-driven,  it’s resurrection-driven and results guaranteed!


And here’s what that looks like in my world:

  • When my independence turns into stubborn resistance…He convicts me.
  • When my vision outpaces my resources… He steadies me.
  • When my restless mind chases ten new business models… He grounds me in truth.

The Spirit never files HR complaints, never sends passive aggressive emails, never walks out of a strategy meeting. He endures because He’s bound to me in Christ. Romans 8:9 reminds me that if I belong to Christ, I have His Spirit. Period!!!


Scriptures that anchor me in business:

  • “The Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline” (2 Tim. 1:7).
  • “The Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you” (Rom. 8:11).
  • “Now the Lord is the Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom” (2 Cor. 3:17).

Affirmations I speak over my work:

  • I am empowered by the Spirit of God to lead with courage and clarity.
  • My Aquarian imagination is not chaos but it is vision shaped by the Spirit of God.
  • I walk in freedom, truth and purpose because of the Spirit within me.

If business teaches you anything, it’s that partners and employees come and go. But the Spirit is a partner who never leaves the table. He’s not just my silent collaborator He is my greatest advantage.

Purpose in the Fight: Lessons from Spiritual Warfare

Sometimes in life, we come to a point where we feel an undeniable pull to pursue what’s deeply embedded in our hearts. It’s the dreams we’ve carried for so long, the purpose we were created for, the longing that whispers, “Now is the time.” But stepping into that purpose isn’t always easy. It often means facing challenges that test our faith, resilience, and spiritual strength. I recently found myself in such a battle, one that opened my eyes to the reality of spiritual warfare and how it intersects with the choices we make to follow our calling. What transpired wasn’t just a series of events but a profound experience that taught me about rising above unseen battles with faith, prayer, and discernment.   A Dream That Spoke of Challenges One night, I dreamt of a curled-up snake. It was still, lying in my path, almost as though waiting to strike. Instead of being overcome with fear, I leapt over it and moved on. At first, I didn’t think much of it, but as I reflected, the imagery beg...

I AM GRATITUDE

GOD~GRACE~GLENDA~GRATITUDE~GREATNESS   The belief that "everything is part of God’s plan and works together for my good" has been a guiding force throughout my life. There have been times when the bigger picture seemed unclear, and challenges felt overwhelming. Yet, I’ve learned to trust those moments, knowing that God’s plan unfolds in ways we cannot always see. As Ecclesiastes reminds us, "He has made everything beautiful in its time." This powerful truth has taught me patience and helped me recognize that even life’s difficulties have purpose.   Last year, in particular, was a season of immense challenge. I faced trials that stretched me in ways I didn’t expect, but I now see how those moments were part of God refining and shaping me. Where there was uncertainty, He provided direction. Where there was hardship, His grace carried me through.   Living with Purpose Each of us is entrusted with a unique calling, a "God-given task" meant to bring light and m...

Embracing Transformation: Overcoming Procrastination and Self-Sabotage en route to Return2SELF

There comes a time when we find ourselves standing at the crossroads of transformation and self-discovery. It is easy to become our own harshest critics, placing limits on the love we deserve due to perceived flaws that only we can see. However, this internal battle often leads us down a path of procrastination and self-sabotage, even when everything seems to be going well. Through meditation and reflection, I've found inspiration in “my manual,” which calls for liberation from presumptuous sins—those negative thoughts that bind us. Imagine working tirelessly towards your dreams only to stall at the finish line because you suddenly doubt your capabilities! This is what happens when we fail to recognize the power of our words—what you say about yourself matters because you're listening too. As I sat in meditation this morning, reflecting on Psalm 19:13, it became clear that much of my self-judgment stems from what can be described as presumptuous sins—those subtle yet pervasive ...
