I said to my hubby, talking about a customer he had to visit early this morning. This person showed up in our life years ago and I’ve never met anyone like him – extremely humble, loyal, faithful, wise and close to God. We had a little get together at our house to celebrate Joshie’s birthday …

“LET US USE THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TRUST GOD MORE”
I said to my friend, Danny, last night. She lives in the Bahamas and I’m in Nigeria, but God figured out a way to connect us over a year ago and looking back from where I was when I first connected with her, to the person she has helped me to become, all I can …

“SOMETIMES YOU TAKE TWO OR THREE STEPS BACKWARDS”
Was my very surprising God wink yesterday! I tried downloading the latest RobCast by Rob Bell on iTunes, when for some reason it refused to download and the last episode I started listening to maybe a week or so ago kept playing instead. When these glitches happen now, I pay attention because they usually mean …

CAN I BOAST ON THE LORD TODAY?
I attended a parent/teacher coffee morning at the kids’ school and I bragged to everyone on our well my daughters, Ember and Julie, are doing. I said, “They’re not my daughters anymore, they’re my Harvard girls!” This story began back in October of last year, when their former Principal decided to recognize the top performers …
“THINGS ARE CRAZY, BUT I CAN’T COMPLAIN”
This was a message from a friend, Lisa, yesterday. I met her in Starbucks years ago when they strangely told me I had to wait to get my coffee. Then the next thing I knew, Lisa showed up waiting in line behind me. This was definitely one of those God planned meetings. She wanted the …
“WE’RE ALL IN THIS HUMAN THING TOGETHER”
I’ve been feeling a little guilty about my last post about the lady who twisted around some stuff I shared with her to cause trouble for me. Who am I to judge anyone? We’re all sinners, which means we constantly miss the mark and mess up. Today I want to encourage us to pray for …
“THE BATTLE IS NOT OURS, IT’S GOD’S”
Was a comment I loved yesterday. I hope you’re getting this important message that God is our Partner in every aspect of our lives. I got a chance on Saturday to have some time with a 22-year-old young lady who reads my blog posts and she made me so happy. As she fought to hold …
“THE WORLD ABOUNDS WITH NEGATIVE THINGS”
Ain’t that the truth! From one to the next, it seems as if negativity can come at us from every direction. Here’s the trick: WE MUST KEEP OUR EYES FIXED ON GOD That’s the super big challenge of our lives. No matter the negativity that comes our way, we have to pause and ask God, …
“FORGET CONFIDENCE, I’M TALKING GODFIDENCE”
I said to someone yesterday. It was a challenge that came up where once again God proved He’s my faithful Helper and Partner. I did what I always write about. I paid attention to my feelings/gut/spirit/intuition as to what God would have me to do. Ideas came to mind and I followed the ones I …

“GET YOUR FIGHT ON”
Was my advice to a friend who called me early this morning to check up on me. I know she’s been missing my calls fussing her out to not be so laid back about a situation she’s dealing with. In this life you will have trouble! Don’t expect everything to be all rosy and wonderful …
