THE PRAYER THAT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE:
God, I want a CLOSER walk with You. Amen. I think I said it back in 2010 or so, and to see how God has changed me from a sad, anxious, bitter, unforgiving, fretful, overweight, starving for love, crazy lady into a happy, loving, forgiving, peaceful and fearless warrior, has been nothing short of a …

A TOAST TO GOD
Instead of throwing out some old smoothie, I asked my cook, Victoria, to place it in a glass for me. She, very surprisingly, put it in a champagne glass. It was the very one I would use to have a nightly drink with my hubby in my attempts to dumb all the UGLY thoughts I …

“LET ME KNOW IF YOU GOT THE EMAIL”
That was me to a friend yesterday. I spent some time helping her out, and I was just thinking about how she has been so wonderful to me that I want to be an even better friend to her. Then, it got me thinking about my relationship with God? ISN’T EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE IN MY …
“… BUT GOD WAS WITH ME”
That’s my life’s testimony for sure! I’ll never forget sitting in my mom’s office reception one day. I was about nine years old, when a client asked, “Are you Mabel’s daughter?” He was incredibly the doctor that delivered me. “I’ll never forget you,” he said, and he went on to tell me the dramatic story …
“YOU’VE ALREADY BEGAN LEAVING YOUR LEGACY”
I said to this beautiful daughter, Ember, standing next to me. She was inaugurated recently as the FIRST head girl of a school that opened for the very FIRST time on her birthday, for the very FIRST year we relocated to Nigeria. My testimony is that God built this school especially for us, and I’m …

“I’M YOUR SLAVE…”
.., I work for food, shelter, and clothing!” I said to my hubby last night! Many years ago, I felt God saying to me if my marriage was to last, I needed to end all arguments about money. So, whatever, my hubby decides, I pretty much go along with him for peace sake. And believe …
