“DON’T GET DISTRACTED” That was some excellent advice to me and the girls yesterday from our neighbor who invited us to church with her. On the drive there, I asked her about a little disagreement the girls and I were having about a football game that I said no to them going. She said the US is a …

“THE MORE YOU HURT ME, THE LESS I CRY” Who would’ve have thought that getting hurt could be a good thing? It has for me! In fact, I use all the negatives that come my way – the failures, mistakes, bitterness, resentments, disappointments, aggravations, sadness, hurt, pain, sickness, feelings of loneliness and hopelessness – to …
“MOMMY, WHY DID DADDY MAKE YOU CRY?”
That was the crucial question one of these beautiful daughters asked me years ago after I had an emotional breakdown in front of them when my husband fussed me out about my weight one Sunday I will never forget. That was my wake up call. Nik, are you going to let your daughters see you …
GOD FREAKS ME OUT, AGAIN! So today, I’m thinking about how God changes all my BAD stuff to such GOOD. Like, I would RUN to Him complaining about my little life drama’s, ‘God, why me?!?’ He must laugh at me a lot because afterward, I’m then THANKING Him for the experiences! Go figure! Even with …
“I’M NOT COMING WITH YOU!!!” (REPOST)

As I was running out to an event at my kids’ school, the zipper on my dress popped open. Aye Carumba! I had to rush and quickly put together …
MARRY HIM! MARRY HIM! MARRY HIM!
That was the Holy Spirit (God’s voice within me) giving me some pretty awesome advice. I had only known my then to be husband for one week when I gave him a book with this written inside:“I know and I know and I know we were meant to be together and we’ll be the world’s …
I’VE SPENT TWO DAYS COMPLETELY AGITATED I’VE SPENT TWO DAYS COMPLETELY AGITATED That’s how it be sometimes, my peeps! Not every day is all jolly jolly, but I’ve come through those days a new person: KNOWING my God is with me. It’s no more ”as if” God is real; It’s GOD IS REAL and His …
EVEN WHEN I PEE PEE GOD IS WITH ME
I have these meditation books in our bathroom to encourage my hubby to have appointments with God and late last night before going to bed, I felt I needed some time alone with Him reading my Jesus Calling Morning and Evening devotional by Sarah Young. That morning, I had received a beautiful WhatsApp message from …
“GOD COMFORTS ME SO THAT I CAN COMFORT OTHERS”
Those were my exact words to someone yesterday afternoon. Fast forward to a couple of hours later, I’m lying in bed for a few minutes to relax my brain and have a few minutes with God before dinner with my family, and I continued reading from where I had last left off in my earlier …
