family...

i love family. God was thinking when he gave us families to laugh and cry with. and to look to for support. my cousins who i love dearly came to visit for spring break. and i love seeing them. because no matter how long it is since the last time we see them we pick up right where we left of. we are close and full of excitement. and happy to be together. sarcastic remarks fly but it is all out of love and fun. so thankful for family. thank you God.

2 corinthians 12:9

he said to me," My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." so therefore i will boast all the more about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. todays society views weakness as a negative thing. but showing flaws and weakness shows who we really our. nothing is hidden in weakness and in that weakness God's power rests on us. that is some pretty exciting news. don't hide weaknesses for God uses the weak to lead the strong. for in my weakness i will no longer be afraid to show it for God's power is upon me.

busy....

today was a busy day. work was so hectic at some point i became very bitter and annoyed. i actually had to step back and say no lo this isnt you. smile share the love. i needed to change my attitude and give it up to God. i came home from work and needed to just step back and focus on changes i needed to make. and since then tonight God has revealed so much to me. opening my heart to new things and experiences. through all this i believe he is teaching me the importance of trust. falling backwards and not being worried about who is goin to catch me. because God is always going to be there to help me through the busy life i lead. Constantly GROWING.

lies...


don't do it. it just leaves you trying to remember what you said or didn't say or didn't say. and it hurts the people you love.  tell the truth people may not always agree with you but the truth is always better than a lie.

a Very WISE women.... Love you Grams


told me throughout my childhood its not about whats on the outside, its about whats on the inside. in todays society we often forget that true beauty lies within. it breaks my heart that young girls feel the pressure to look a certain way, and leaves them feeling as if their never good enough. not even just young girls really, older women feel the pressure to look young and youthful with anti-wrinkle cream, botox, face lifts. but to all my women bloggers young and old know this, that you can have all the looks in the world, but if your heart is ugly all that outer beauty is useless and will only get you so far. embrace your inner beauty, that beauty will outshine the outer beauty and people will see you as a TRULY beautiful person.

Moms..

Moms are amazing. i am so blessed with a mother such as mine. besides my sister and JC she and my dad have become my best friend. they are always there to talk to. i am facing a tough decision in my life right now and my mom offered wisdom and love to me. the love that she gives puts my heart at ease. knowing that family is praying for you in the midst of life changing decisions is a true blessing. my heart is still unsure, but i feel as if it is being lead by God. He has a plan for my life and as hard as it is to sacrifice things that mean the world to you sometimes thats what we are called to do. To give ourselves completely to him. thank you mom for loving me as you do. God knew what he was doing when he blessed me with a mother like you. <3

A New Song...


i have struggles me and the Lord are attacking and trying to conquer. one of the struggles kept popping in this brain of mine. i needed to meet God and offer him all that i was. Body, MIND, and soul. so today while i was at work i found myself singing songs to God to keep him on my mind rather than myself and my problems. not a worship song from church but a song from the depths of my heart. i pulled beats from different songs and just worshiped God. it was amazing how i felt Gods presence within my soul. i felt happier and more refreshed for the day. my mind strayed at times but like i said its a struggling in which i am working on. sometimes we forget that God wants sincere songs from our hearts. i know i do. try it today sing your own song praising God for his greatness. you will be amazed at the deep beats that come flowing out.

SUNDAY...


Sunday is a great day. i love how amazing God is. i had an ok day, i was focusing on something that really shouldn't matter to me which was bringing me down. i found myself asking why?  while asking why? God revealed to me the areas of my life that i wasn't giving fully to him. and the thing i was struggling with was exactly that, the area in which i need work. i need to trust God completely with EVERYTHING that i am. because i am a sinner its not always easy to give it all up to God. but the sooner i do the better off i will be. I am LEARNING to let go and LET GOD.
