Hello everyone,

The other day, I talked about trusting God and dealing with life.  I just want to elaborate on that a little by saying we will always have situations because that’s how God designed this life for us, and therefore, we should trust Him to get through all things.  This life is designed to make us holy and strong to deal with trials and tribulations so that we can make it to Heaven.  Also, we have to understand that most of our lives, we deal with others so in knowing that, we have to always TRUST God and pray for wisdom and understanding that nobody is perfect, and all people make mistakes including us.

Trusting God is what gives us peace and having less stress in our lives.  God wants us to be strong and able to get through things that come before us each day so that we can serve according to His mission. When we have to deal with things, it’s just God working in our lives, but we have to learn how to give our burdens to Him and know the purpose of our being.  If everything was good or perfect, how can we get better and how can we get stronger?

We have to go through some tough times to grow in the name of Jesus.  What I’ve said above and what I’m about to say now are very important.  He sent His Son Jesus, to show us some very powerful things.  He went through Pain, He Suffered and Died for us and every time I think of my pain or what I’m dealing with, I can’t help but to think about what He did for us. Our pain is nowhere near what Jesus went through. Amen and Thank You so much Lord. When we go through situations, let’s continue to know that God is trying to prepare us to be better people and to grow on our journey.

We also have to understand that nobody is perfect.  It’s human to get mad at things when we do wrong or when people do wrong to us.  This is something we have to grow into to learn that people are people, and we all make mistakes.  The important thing about this is everybody is learning on his or her journey.  Somethings that we know, people may not be there yet and somethings that others know, we may not be there yet.  We learn from each other and love is the core that keeps us together to grow. What I’m saying is let’s not get upset or angry when we witness wrongdoing but show love and forgiveness, show compassion, and show understanding.  The important part of this is to grow in every situation so that all of us can witness the love of God and learn from mistakes to handle situations with wisdom and integrity.

If we can see through the lenses of God how this works, we will definitely be on the road to happiness, peace and joy.  Amen and Amen

Hello everyone,

I know I haven't spoken with you all in a while but I'm back.  I just had to take care of some things.  I've been praying for everyone and making sure I'm on track on my journey.  It's always good to take time out and trust that God is with us.

Sometimes it’s best to refresh and look at what we're doing to make sure we are on the right path in life.  God has been so good to us and even when life appears to not be so good at the time, God is working in our lives, and we will see His goodness down the road.  We have to hold on to life and allow Him to work through us.  God is always with us, and He doesn't give us nothing that we can't handle.  Let's keep the faith and trust God.  If we do that, all things will work out every time.

We should understand that when we go through things, it's preparing us for something greater and while we are in the trial, we have to have joy and thank Him for watching over us.

I know sometimes that’s hard but let’s look back at our lives and think.  How do you think we got out of difficult situations? It was all God and just think now we’re still standing today. 

The bottom line is to never give up when it gets tough but stand firm and God will walk with us, talk with us, carry us through and more. Amen and Thank You Lord. We all have been given God’s grace so when we accept his mercy and give Him our burdens, how can we lose, we will win every time.

If you’re going through something or don’t know how you’re going to get out of a situation, look up to the Lord and He will see you through and guide you in the right direction.

He loves us so much and it’s a blessing when we allow God to work in our lives.  We will be at peace with whatever we have to deal with and we will know how to have joy one day at a time even through the mess.

All of us have something that we are dealing with but it’s not what we’re dealing with that makes the difference but it’s how we go about handling our situations to come out on top with integrity and when we TRUST GOD and allow Him to guide us, we will taste and see the goodness of our Lord.
​
Amen and I love you all.
 
 
 

Hello everyone,
 
I hope all is well with you and your family.  I have been thinking about God’s goodness and how He has blessed us so much.  In looking back on my life, I just have to thank God for the good and the bad times.  He protects us, He walks with us, He forgives us, and He loves us so much.  It’s especially important that we hold on to life to witness the glory, love our neighbor as we love ourselves and practice patience. 

We all have been or are in situations that test our faith or make us feel uncomfortable when we are going through things but it’s critical to know that when we encounter trials, it’s only temporary.  That too shall pass, and God is teaching us how to be better people.  You see, life is all about learning, becoming wise and allowing God to work in our lives.  We all are human, and we make mistakes but it’s not the end of the world.  When we go through things, we should thank God for the trials and grow in the name of Jesus.  We’re here to be the light of Jesus so that people can see Him in us.  Sometimes, we get so mad at others for doing things but what we really need to do is check ourselves.  That’s real talk.  God is there for us all the time so why can’t we be there for His people?  Continue to love so that we all can get closer to God and gain peace in our days.

It took me years to learn that and I’m 53 years old, but the good thing is it’s never too late to begin again.  Thank you, Lord.  I’ve made so many mistakes in my life, but I was learning and growing at the same time. As we live one day at a time, we need to know that God is with us.  He’s always there and He watches over us each and every day.  There’s never a situation or thing that God doesn’t know about in our lives.  He knows when we’re happy, sad, mad, glad and all that so let’s continue to allow God to work through us to Build the Body of Christ. 

Another thing is let’s not beat ourselves up for mistakes that we’ve made but instead know that God forgives us, and He will continue to love us. He just wants us to grow so that we can be a vessel for others.  We have got to love and always love even when we hurt. Through the pain, we have to hold on because when the storms are done, we will see why God put us through that situation. Amen

It’s such a wonderful feeling to witness God’s glory because when we do that, we see the victory, we see God really working in our lives and others can see His goodness and gain hope as well.  That’s very important.

In closing this conversation, let’s deal with whatever God puts on our plate and know that He’s there through it all and He’s helping us to be stronger to handle that next situation.  People need to see that because people are really going through things, and we are too. All of us need courage, need faith and the ability to begin again. We all are His children so let’s not judge but love and let’s practice patience in whatever we have to deal with by trusting God.  Let’s give that some thought, evaluate our lives and when we have to deal with something, look through God lenses to know that it’s all about love and helping each other one day at a time. 

AMEN AND THANK YOU LORD SO MUCH.  I LOVE YOU ALL.

In life, there will be ups and downs because the goal or purpose is to be holy and to become like children of God.  We have to learn how to give unconditional love and sometimes we think we're there until something happens in our lives that show us that we need more work. 

Each and every one of us have something to work on because if we can't love our neighbor even when we hurt, we're not there, if we can't forgive our neighbor, we're not there, if we're not humbled, we're not there. I can go on and on but that's real talk.

We should always want to learn and grow in the name of Jesus and know that it's not about us but about serving God.  I say that because sometimes things happen in our lives that put us back or give us stress but please know that things happen for a reason and when life is uncomfortable, this is when we have to praise God and allow Him to work in our lives. 

The key is holding on through whatever situation you're in and not giving up in life.  We have to walk on faith and know that God is with us.  That's it so if you're going through something right now, don't be stressed, lift up your hands and thank God for the trials.  Trust me because He has something planned for your life.  DON'T GIVE UP BECAUSE WE WILL NEVER SEE THE VICTORY IF WE DONT WALK WITH THE CROSS THROUGH IT ALL.  

Amen and Thank You Lord.

Many times, we hold on to things that hurt us in life.  This happens because it’s uncomfortable and we feel pain.  Most of the time, it involves others in terms of something we’ve done or something someone else has done to us.   Also, a lot of times we blame others for things that go wrong in our lives.  I’m saying this because I’ve done it and I’m sure you have as well at some point in your life.  It’s really time for us to stop holding grudges and let go of things that are bringing us down.  We all need healing in some area and we can’t heal or serve the Lord if we’re not loving unconditionally or letting go of things that are preventing us from moving forward and having peace.

When we interact with people, it’s our choice in how we respond or act in any given situation.  We have to remember that we can’t expect people to be what we want them to be because they are growing in the name of Jesus just like we are and we all have faults.  When we stay positive and be kind to one another, we help ourselves and in turn that’s helping others because one can see Jesus in us and our light will shine.

It’s very important to let go of grudges or things that hurt us because if we don’t, we will never grow and we will always have issues that will affect our direction in life.  Our lives will be on a pause and we will wonder why things are not progressing.  Letting go of things help all of us because it shows love, it shows forgiveness, it shows kindness as well as mercy.  Let’s not get caught up on things that are not important but prepare ourselves for peace.

If we all take accountability for what we do and don’t’ do, we can see our faults prior to seeing the fault in others.  We’re not perfect but we’re here to grow and get closer to God.  It’s all about love and when we live it, we teach it and when we teach it, we all grow and when we grow, we change the world by giving hope that changes lives.
​
Let’s not let anything stop us from moving in the right direction and gaining peace but let’s work towards enjoying the remaining days that we have on this earth by God.  Tomorrow is not promised so let’s treat today as the last day and do it with love, integrity and respect.
 
Amen and Thank you Lord.

Mother’s Day is a day full of love
To give and to Thank God from heaven up above
 
For blessing us with great moms each and every day
He made sure we had love in each and every way
 
We should appreciate our moms for what they have done
Day in and Day out when we were young
 
The sacrifice, the struggles and so much more
They deserve this day and every day like never before
 
We need to value the gift by our moms and grandmothers too
It’s the gift of life and a blessing from what they had to do

I know it wasn’t easy because the world is a mess
We probably gave them headaches and put them to the test
 
If we look back in the day, our moms still loved us through all things
The good, the bad and everything that we had to bring
 
I give kudos to all moms because they work so hard to meet the need
They did it with integrity and class while planting the seed
 
The seed for us to grow and become young adults like we should
That’s all they want is to make sure we’re safe and good
 
I’m a mother myself and it’s such a blessing to witness them all grown up
I give it all to God and that’s real stuff
 
Even if your mother is not with us on this earth today
Know that she is still with you and that everything will be okay
 
Happy Mother’s Day to you for everything that you’ve done and do
Always know that you’re the best and we really really love you

Amen and Thank You God for all Moms

Each day, God gives us a second chance and the gift of life. Every time we awaken is definitely a blessing and an opportunity to get closer to the Lord. It’s a choice to want joy, to be happy and to be at peace. Life can be hectic at times but if we just trust God, it will be alright.  We’re here to do the works of the Lord and we must remember that He’s on our side so whatever we’re going through, let go/let God and let Him work in our lives. Let’s keep moving in the right direction and just lean on Him for all things. Whatever we’re going through, let’s lift up our hands, release the burdens and give it all to God.

I have something to be thankful for today. It’s my 30th wedding anniversary. God has blessed me and my husband with the ability to share life with each other for a very long time. Even though we both are kind people with a good heart, it’s not easy to keep the relationship strong because there are temptations and problems that come into our lives. What held us together is God and only God. A marriage is a sacrament and a commitment so without God being the core of a relationship, it just will not work. We are not strong enough to do the right thing and this is why God said stay connected to the vine meaning Him because if we don’t, our branches will fall, and we will get lost. (Not intentionally but the flesh will take us on another journey).

This journey is all about allowing God to work in our lives and trusting Him each day, walking with faith and being that vessel to give hope to the world and change lives including our own loves. It’s only when we stay connected with God, we tend to want to walk on the right path. Sometimes we get distracted but at least we know where to go to stand up again. My marriage has not always been good, but we managed to get through by the grace of God to keep going even in those rough times.

I always say a partner should be a person who helps an individual walk on the road to get to heaven. In doing that, a couple will taste and see the goodness of God’s love, share it with each other and others as well as have joy on their journey. Finally, when the burdens come into the relationship, release them together and be at peace. God is a good God and I'm so thankful for HIs divine mercy.
​
Amen and Thank You Lord

Hello everyone,

I’m back. I hope all is well with you. It’s been busy but you know I always come back to share God’s words of wisdom with you. God has blessed me with so much wisdom and He’s allowing me to share it with the world. So, even when you don’t see wisdoms daily, please go in the archives because it’s so much to refresh on and learn from God.

I have to say that I’m so thankful for you, for God guiding me in my life and for Him always being there for me. It’s absolutely amazing when we can see him working in our lives through the good and the bad. We all have things that we’re dealing with but when we know God is with us, it’s alright.  Each day is a new day and whatever baggage we have with us, we have to know how to deal with the day.

We have to get to the point where we know whatever happens, God is with us. He controls in all so we should never give up on Him but trust Him with everything we have in life. When bad things happen, just trust Him, when we think we can’t make it, just trust Him, when we don’t know how to get out of a situation, just trust Him. Seriously, He’s there through it all. It’s just a matter of patience and faith.

This covid situation has been a struggle with jobs lost and all that but God still is a protector and is giving us what we need. Let’s not lose the trust but walk out on faith to do what we have to do. We all are unique, and we all have a gift so stay positive, confident and let go and let God.
​
Amen and thank you Lord.
 

In life, we live each day trying to do what’s needed or we think about what’s happening in our lives and get stressed or distracted. It’s all a choice and I’m going to break it down as to why we need to use wisdom in order to continue to do what’s needed so that we can serve, have joy and be happy on our journey.
​
We are not perfect but we learn and grow.  We don’t have all of the answers to everything and this is why we make mistakes and have to suffer consequences.  Some mistakes are just a lesson to learn but some there are consequences that we have to deal with in life.  As we get older and learn wisdom, we learn to not make the same mistakes but sometimes habits are formed and it’s harder to get rid of some behaviors. This shouldn’t stop us either because we just need to take one day at a time to deal with our habits and get the help needed to make our lives better. I  know it’s not easy but if we focus on the day only, it will get better.

Each day is an opportunity to look at our lives to just do what we can when we can and let God do the rest. We shouldn’t worry about yesterday or tomorrow but deal with what’s in front of us today.  God is the one that awakens us to have another day, He’s the one who’s with us throughout the day and He’s the one that helps us to sleep at night so why worry, why get stressed and why allow someone or something to distract us from being happy, serving God and having joy on our journey.

The bad things that happen in our lives are sometimes not so bad, especially when it’s out of our control.  Why are we getting stressed from things that happened out of our control? When things happen that’s not in our control, God is definitely working and moving us to something better. We just have to trust Him and hold on to our faith.  God is in control of everything.  He knows what’s going to happen before it happens so let’s continue to allow Him to work in our lives and when we get stressed, talk to God because He will take care of our burdens.

All I’m saying is let’s be positive about life, choose to take whatever comes our way, roll with the punches and keep it going. God will show us what He’s doing in our lives and give us joy through it all.  Life is a precious gift and when we learn how to walk with the cross, have faith and trust Him through all things, we will gain peace each day and have joy giving hope to the world.
 
Amen and Thank You Lord.

Sometimes in life, it may seem like you're standing alone and no one is on your side or even understands what you're dealing with on your journey. Don't get discouraged.

God is always in the midst of it all and even if your situation seems bad or seems like there is no way out, He can help you.  There is always a way out.  It's just how you handle your situation, how you let go and let God and how you keep a positive attitude even in the bad times. Most importantly, trust the Father.

You see, God works in our lives and when the bad times come, He's with us.  Actually, those are the times when He wants you to stand firm and hold on to your life.  It's just Him preparing you for something great. 

We have got to pick up the cross and walk with Jesus if we want to see the victory.  So even though you may be going through somethings, remember you're not alone and know that this is temporary.  It will get better and when it does, You will know that it was all because of God's Grace and Mercy.

Amen and Thank You Lord
