We Got Food At Home

I can’t believe this is happening.

If you would have told me three years ago that I would be here creating a space centered around God, faith, and purpose, I would have said, "Who said that??"

But this is God’s plan, not mine so here is my testimony.


My name is N’kele, but most people know me as Kelly.

I’m a child of GOD, mom to a princess and the founder of Call Kelly Design. I’ve always been a self-starter with a vision to create, and over time, graphic design is what truly stuck.

I didn’t grow up in church, but faith was always present in our home. I just didn’t fully know God for myself back then. Now, at 35 years old I can see that GOD was guiding me the whole time. All glory to God.


I've made choices without understanding who I was and those choices led to some dark times.However that is what eventually brought me right back to Him.

I reached a point where I was just tired.

I didn’t know who I was, and I cried more nights than I can count.

In that place, I surrendered.


I bought a Bible from the discount store and started reading.

But if I’m being real, it hadn’t become the Word to me yet.

I was still living my old life and felt caught in between.

I started realizing that the things I was used to were not satisfying me anymore.


At the same time, I kept going back to what was easy, familiar, and right in front of me.

It was like choosing McDonald’s when I knew my body needed real nutrients, not quick, convenient, and temporary.

Those cheap fulfillments cost me, not always in the moment, but over time mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

That was my reality.

I was reading the Word but still learning how to live it.

Somewhere in that tension, something in me started to shift.

I hadn’t fully let go of who I once was, and eventually, I hit a breaking point later that year. I felt lost, but I remember my sister cousin and friend (thats what I call her) reminding me that God loves us knowing we are not perfect.


In that moment, I began to understand something deeper God’s love isn’t something we earn. It isn’t based on how well we perform or how “put together” we are. He loved me in the middle of my brokenness, in the mess, before I had anything figured out. I realized I wasn’t too far gone, too messy, or too imperfect to be loved by Him. And not only does He love us as we are, but His love calls us into something greater it draws us closer, changes us, and leads us back to Him. That moment pushed me back to the Word… but this time, I was ready.


During that time, I fasted.

I did not fully understand it, but I knew I needed to quiet the noise.

One moment changed everything.



I was listening to “Fly Like a Bird” by Mariah Carey like I had so many times before.This time, before the song begins, you hear Kirk Franklin recite Psalm 30:5,


“Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.”


For the first time, I felt like God truly saw me.


I notice a overwhelming feeling, it was strong it was revelation.I felt the presence of God! The spirit was within me. I continued seeking God, I became thirsty for the word, and the things I used to run to did not have the same hold on me anymore. It was not by force, but by a renewed mind, just as Romans 12:2 speaks about. I wanted more than just reading, I needed community.


I prayed, moved in faith, and what started as a 30-day fast with 12 women turned into Bible study in 2025. That is how this began.

I realized I had been trying to fill myself with everything except God.

Quick things, temporary things, the way we scroll, the way we reach for people, validation, and distractions.

No matter how much of it we consume, we are still left hungry.


The truth is we need GOD.

In Ezekiel, there is a valley of dry bones, people who were alive but empty, and God asks, “Can these bones live?”

I have been that person, alive but empty.

God does not condemn you in that place, but He does call you out of it.

He restores and brings life back to what feels dry.


If you feel tired, empty, or like nothing is truly satisfying you, it may be because you have been feeding everywhere else and not going home.


That is why this blog is called We Got Food at Home.

What you are looking for, peace, clarity, and fulfillment, is not out there, it is in Him.

God has always been there, waiting to fill you.


If you are here and unsure where to start, just start with Him.

Talk to Him, ask Him to guide you.

He hears you.


If you are here, it is not by accident.

God is within us.

We got food at home.
