Happy Mother's Day!

Hello everyone!

I know that Mother's Day has already passed, but I wanted to share something I wrote last year. I hesitated because this is really difficult for me to talk about. When I asked God why He wanted me to share such a personal and painful time in my life, His answer was simple. You need to heal. So, here I am being open, being vulnerable, but most of all, being obedient. 

Happy Mother's Day! I wanted to share something that I wrote last year during this time. It's entitled Forever in My Heart and it's dedicated to the children I've lost who are waiting in heaven!

Forever in My Heart
To the one, I’ve never met, but I hold closest to my heart.
I never got to see your face, oh your beautiful face that would light up even my darkest day.
I never got to hold your hand as you took your first step. Or picked you up when you’d fall and scrape your knee.
I never got to wipe away your tears or snuggled with you while you slept.
I never got to walk you to class on your first day of school. Where you’d sit with your friends and learn about the world around you.
I never got to hear about your first crush or your first date.
I never got to wipe the sweat off your brow after a baseball game or whichever sport you’d choose. Maybe you wouldn’t like sports and join the drama team instead. Still, I never got to cheer you on.
I never got to teach you how to drive or wish you luck on your new job.
I never got to watch you march on graduation day where I’d throw my arms around you and tell you how proud I was to be your mother.
No, I never got that chance.
I never got to hear about your new career or your biggest dreams.
I never got to hear about the love of your life or receive a ‘save the date’ card.
I never got the chance to watch through tears, joyful tears, as you began your new life with your true love. To wish you love and happiness as the two of you became one.
I never got that chance to share all your hopes and dreams.
I never got to hold you when life’s lessons were too difficult to bear.
I hope you know how much I love you and wanted you so. Forever in my heart, I’ll hold you and never let you go.

There's a Snake in Your Garden

Image
I once heard a story about a couple who were having a quiet evening when their dogs suddenly began barking. They got louder, so the husband went outside to check on things. In a panic, he called to his wife and told her there was a snake in the corner of the entryway. While she kept an eye on the 4-foot snake, he went and got a shovel and a knife. After taking care of the snake, reality hit. In order for her husband to get out the front door, he passed right by the snake that could’ve struck out and bit him, or worse. God protected them both from harm. We must be careful to keep watch of our surroundings, especially our homes. The enemy will use any way possible to slither in and lay in wait to strike out and destroy. Just like he did when he made his move on Eve in the garden. He convinced her that it was okay to eat the fruit from the tree of knowledge and that nothing bad would happen. And so, she ate the fruit, then gave it to Adam to eat. But what happened after they ate...

What's Been Going On...

 Hello everyone!  It's been a while and exciting things are happening! 😁  I have FINALLY taken that scary step and quit my job to concentrate on becoming an indie author. I did pray and seek God for His guidance and He opened that door wide! I'm currently putting together my first ever poetry collection AND my first novella, To Smile Again. I am waiting on the cover design and working on edits.  I'm SO excited you have no idea! 😆 I'm praying they will be ready for publication by August/September 2021.  Something else that I have added to my writing adventure is...YouTube!!! Yep, I started  vlogs documenting my writing progress. It's been so much fun, but I say 'um' a lot. 😂 Well that's about all I've got going on. I hope you're doing well and don't forget. When you feel like giving up...KEEP PUSHING ON!!!!  Blessings 💮

Get on the Train or Watch it Go By!

 Hello friend! I wanted to share something with you that God spoke to me a few months ago. We've been praying for revival and I have this sense that it's coming soon! Here's what God spoke to me: Revival is coming like in the days of Noah. It is coming in a whirlwind of fire and we need to be ready. We need to make the decision whether or not we are going to get on the train, or watch it go by. Revival will come in God's timing, not ours. The church has been coddled for far too long. There are those who will close their ears to what is being said because they haven’t fully committed their lives to Christ. They like to hear what I call the ‘fluff a nutters.’ They want to hear a feel good message instead of a message that’s going to challenge us to be doers and not just hearers of the word. A message that will make us run, not walk, to the altars and ask God to forgive us for our sins. A message that will ignite the fire within us to want to go out and preach the gospel l...
