Making yourself a priority
The last 18 months have been an incredible part of my journey. With some of the changes that occurred in my life, there was no room left in my life to take care of myself in the preceding two years. 2014 was one of the most difficult years I can remember ever facing. Everything seemed […]
Be still and know that I am God
Even now the thought comes to me, ‘be still and know that I am God’. Sometimes we need to sit quietly, with no other distractions around us to hear that still, calm voice, calling us to do what he requires of us. Lately, slowly coming to the realization that I’m being called to something greater. […]
The big waves will come
The last few summers have changed drastically for me. I can’t even tell you that I really remember how I spent my summers before I became a mother. I’m sure I did stuff and enjoyed my summers as best I could. I love the warm weather, so I was likely out and about. But my […]
Being Thankful
I remember the summer of 1997, I was home in Jamaica, so I remember it well. Oprah had a program on being thankful, and taking note of the things we were grateful for. I was going through a time of uncertainties – I was a teenager then, but yes, there were things that were beyond […]
Cast your cares on Him
I really debated whether to post today. I’ve been feeling so so lately. I’m being reminded that I’m on a journey, and if I’m to chronicle my journey to help someone else – every day won’t be such a great day, and it’s ok to admit that. Where we get into trouble is always trying […]
Let’s not forget
I know I seem to keep writing about Moses and Israel, particularly when they were on their journey to the promised land. I guess I can say I’m on a similar journey and find myself with some of the issues the Israelites faced. Again, not so extreme, but mainly in the remembering, forgetting and trusting […]
What’s in your hand?
So, for quite some time it was suggested that I should be writing. I’ve never had much of a topic and always seemed to come up with an excuse and never considered myself a writer. When I moved a few months ago, I even designated the family room as an area that I would be […]
Being a Christian
Shortly before I started my own blog, I determined that I was to be a Proverbs 31 Woman. Part of that meant I had to read Proverbs 31, right? As usual, I got to my desk and quickly Googled Proverbs 31. By the way, I Google everything. I should own shares in the company. The […]
God wants to bless you!
This thought has been on my mind for a while now. I even had a title set aside. This story extends all the way back to when I was about 21. I worked in a local pharmacy as a cashier, and I had just started becoming Adventist, but I was new and had a job […]
Be still
Sometimes I just need a good cry. Is there anything wrong? Not really. Maybe I’m just trying to force circumstances and situations that I have absolutely no control over. I’m used to being in control in most areas of my life. I’m this super independent woman who has known what I’ve wanted for a long […]
