“I DON’T KNOW WHAT YOUR AGENDA IS”

Was a comment I got today! My response was, “Very simple: to be the best wife, mom, and person possible, all for God’s glory. Nothing more, nothing less.” And let me tell ya, that right there is the secret to living a successful life. With every decision seeking to please God, He loving guides us …

“YOU PRESENTED HIM AS A HORRIBLE PERSON…”

“…You don’t even seem to realize you did this. Nobody is going to admire a man who insults his wife at a party. If you want people to admire your husband, you need to tell a different story about him.” I LOVE THIS COMMENT because I’m going to use it to be very REAL with …

This was my hubby SCREAMING at his FAT wife from across the room at a party some years ago. Can you believe this was one of those life-changing moments when I decided to work on myself seriously?

“I WANT TO JOIN YOU!!!”

I excitedly told a friend concerning fasting for Ramadan. That ONE decision has changed my life DRAMATICALLY, and I astonishingly see God’s hands ALL over it!
