“HOW DO YOU MENTALLY DEAL WITH TOUGH SITUATIONS?”

Wow! That was the excellent question from a sweetie pie God has sent into my life! Here’s how: God is my GREATEST FRIEND EVER! Anything I’m concerned about, He’s concerned about, let me tell ya. And He lovingly finds all sorts of ways to communicate with me (He’s quite talkative once you get to know …

“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 …

“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 …

“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 …

He is intimately involved in every aspect of our lives, and if you want the BEST life possible, you MUST get to know Him better. Take for example my family’s recent summer trip to London. Honestly, we wanted to …

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)

That was me to a very persistent person a short while ago. And I thought I was the persistent one! LOL! We had a great time hanging out on my bleisure (business/leisure) time here in Florida away from hubby and the kids. And even though I’m far from them, I feel so amazing that God …

“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! 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 …
