Hello everyone,

I hope all is well.  As I meditate this morning, all I can think about is why we’re here, how we can spread the gospel and how we can have joy within ourselves each day.

God is so wonderful that He sent His son to die for our sins, to show us how to deal with pain and challenges and to allow us to witness faith, love and hope.  Jesus came so that we may live and to have peace while living.  He left us with a mission to walk with the cross and to be the light for all to see Him through us even through the battle.

He didn’t say it was going to be easy because life is really a sacrifice to give hope and love even when we’re hurting the most.  The good news is we get to have peace, we get to help others, we get to witness His divine mercy and we get to share the gospel.  It can’t get any better than that.

The fact is sometimes we don’t want sacrifice or endure pain, sometimes we get tired of doing the right thing and sometimes we just want to live without having to do so much.  This is why it’s so important to refresh our relationship with God daily so that we can gain wisdom, understanding and have strength to get through tough times.  (Most importantly, wanting to follow the right path in Jesus Name)

We are here to be that light because so many people are going through things and are in darkness.  Can you image being in a room pitch dark and can not see?  This is happening today, people are living with no light, don’t know which way to turn and can’t even see life through God’s lenses.  When we share our light, it gives hope to not give up through the most challenging times. 

If we really want to do the works of God or follow His mission, let’s start with loving our neighbor, treating people the way we want to be treated, forgiving others when they do us wrong and standing firm when the battles or struggles come so that others can witness our faith.

This life that we were given by God is a blessing and when we don’t make it about us but more about the mission, we flourish and nourish our bodies to make a difference in another person’s life.  We have joy and the ability to have peace on our journey.  We all went through or are going through something. Let’s continue to share God’s love because we never would have made it this far without God.

Hello everyone,

I hope all is well.  I can't say this enough, but life is so precious. We have a family member dealing with some things and it's tough but we're trying to make sure everyone is okay and able to trust God to keep standing.   (That's includes us as well) (Me and my husband)

It's very important that we stay connected to the vine because when tough times come, we have a better chance to get through.  We have got to always keep our mind right and know that we're here to serve and we're here to do it together. 

Refreshing our relationship with God each day is important as well because we can say we're strong but until we have to go through things, is when we find out how strong we are on our journey.  God is with us and if we talk and walk with Him each day, we will enhance our relationship with Him and know that whatever happens, it's according to His will.  We just have to pray for guidance, strength and understanding so that we can better serve His children as well as get through life ourselves in peace.

Please pray for my family and we will continue to pray for yours.

Hello everyone,
​
I hope and pray that all is good and you have a good day.  Each day is new beginnings with God’s grace and love.  It’s really all about walking on our journey trusting God, being dependent on Him and treating our neighbor with love so that our light will shine for others to see Jesus in us.  When we do that, we gain peace.

Having peace is everything to me because we don’t know what tomorrow may bring and we need to make the best out of our days by choosing to be positive.  I know sometimes life throws us curve balls, but we have to know how to be strong, pick up the pieces and move forward.  Life is not perfect and we’re going to have good and tough times but it’s all about using the tools that God gives us to get through.

We don’t have time to allow our uncomfortable situations to overcome our purpose.  Basically, we don’t have time to be stressed about life.  Jesus already paid the price so that we may live so let’s continue to know who’s holding our hand when things get chaotic.  God is a good God and He told us that He will never leave us so let’s not give up or think we can’t still make it through.  We can if we just have faith and trust in our Lord.

God always comes through and He knows what we need and want.  He knows what’s going to happen before it happens so let’s get it together, know who’s with us each and every day and walk with the cross.  Sometimes it’s hard but those are the times that God sees our pain and suffering.  When we can see through God lenses and know who’s with us, the pain won’t be that bad.  I know when I go through tough times, I knows it’s God’s plan so I just trust Him and go with the flow especially when it’s out of my control.

When we can walk our journey, taking life one day at a time, knowing that whatever happens in the day, God is with us, we will always win.  Life is truly a gift and God has allowed us to still be here today. That’s a reason to praise Him and know that we’re loved. When tough times happen, let go and give it to God like He said, “Give me your burdens and I will give you rest”. He hears your cry and is walking and talking with you each and every day.  Let’s continue to love God, Love His children and have faith in Him because He is the rock that controls it all.
​
Amen and We Love You Lord.  I truly love the Lord.

Hello everyone,

I hope all is well and you have a good day.  Over these past couple of weeks, I have witnessed a lot of things and the take-away from it all is that God loves us so much, we're so blessed and it's very important to know that life is a gift and it could be taken away at any time.  Every day we awaken is God's Grace and we should never take it for granted.

The beauty of it all is we too can be an example of Him by showing love and kindness all the time when we interact with one another because at the end of the day, that is what makes a difference in the world.  Let's always remember the mission set by God and to allow our light to shine.  When we do that, we give hope, and we are doing the works set by God.

These wisdoms are so important to me because I know that these words help others and give peace to the world.  The wisdoms also have a tremendous impact on my life as well. It helps me when I take time out to listen to God to really see what's important.  If you get a chance, think about your life, what you think is best for you and when you do that, make sure God is in the midst of it all.  You will feel refreshed and ready to start a new journey of peace.

Thank You Lord and please continue to guide us to where you want us to be on our journey according to Your plan.

Amen and Amen
