Blessed!!

I am truly blessed.  My husband and I have a SUCCESSFUL business.  I get to stay-at-home with our children.  We have a beautiful home in a great neighborhood and wonderful family around us.  My daughter goes to a great private school and we can still afford to place her in extra curricular activities such as ballet and karate.  My husband takes great care of us and I'm not lacking.  Lemme me not say I'm not lacking, because there is an area of my life where I lack.  I want to do more for others.  I cannot just sit here as blessed as I am and not reach out to others, I just can't.  Granted I have 2 young children, 1 just turned 5 months, but I don't want to let that hold me back.  I want to bless others and giving money is just not enough anymore.  Sure I could just give more money and maybe I will, but I want to do more than just give money.

I know the devil does not want me to share this post,  he is saying to me "people are going to think you are bragging".  The devil is a liar, I will say and proclaim the works of the Lord in my life.  I am not scared to say I am blessed!  Women, you don't have to feel guilty because you are blessed.  Don't let the devil keep you from saying what the Lord has done for you. While you are suppose to be slow to speak, be careful to make sure it's not the devil shutting your mouth.

Testimony - great customers, great tips, $400 refunded from my school, Financial blessings

I had to blog about this.  I couldn't keep this to myself.  Something happened a couple days ago.  Just to share a little bit of the backstory before I tell you, my husband and I had a huge financial crisis about 3 years ago.  Things have gotten better little by little but it takes grind, especially on his part.  He is a great husband and dad so he takes pleasure in providing for his family.  This is a great entry point into what I'm about to share with you.  As we were approaching the beginning of the school year there were some other expenses approaching as well.  My husband and I believe our kids should be involved in extra curricular activities.  As they get older we feel they need constructive ways to channel their energy.  And they need to get away from the constant lure of the Ipad.  This is a big challenge for today's generation and you have to be proactive, especially with your children.  Anyway,  my daughter wa...

The best fight ever...............

Marriage.................................It's not easy.  It is a colorful creation full of ups and downs, highs and lows.  And some desperate times.  It cannot be done without God. It is His invention and only He can navigate you through it.  But marriage is worth fighting for.  You don't always have the energy to fight anymore and that's ok.  It's ok to not be ok.  It's ok to not be ok with your marriage.  It's ok to not be ok with your life.  Just know that not being ok, with your marriage, doesn't mean that it's over.  Not being ok, with your life, doesn't mean that its over.   In the last couple weeks I have struggled with temptations of epic magnitude.  God has seen me in my struggle.  Struggling with my emotions.  Struggling with my desires.  Struggling to stay faithful.  He saw me. He didn't look at me and say "I can't believe you are thinking this".  He didn't look at me ans say "I...

Think before you defend yourself

I get on social media and I do my best not to be critical of anyone.  It's not my place.  I do find it kind of interested how personal relationships, insecurities, and hurts are expressed where the whole world can see.  Social media is like this enigma that continues to spark my interest.  I find myself asking "why would he/she share something so deep and personal with people who don't know them or even care?".  I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing.  I just find myself being very curious and intrigued about why? There is one trend I see, on social media, that sparks a bit of concern.  The amount of time we spend defending ourselves and our decisions on social media.  I get concerned because I realize that when we spend a "noticeable" amount of time defending ourselves publicly, it is a strong indication that their is a much bigger private battle going on within .  Social media speaks volumes to me about inner battles we go through. ...
