5 Truths I’ve Learned and 5 Scriptures To Embrace When Hurting
Tears streamed down my face as I texted by best friend about the catastrophic freak show that was my life the day before. In an attempt to “get ahead of the game” I was preparing some freezer meals. Pinterest puffed up my ego pretty good and I was going for it. That was until the oven caught on fire. That’s right, FIRE! I put the meatballs on the wrong pan and the grease spilled over in my gas oven and caught fire. I was so blessed my husband Donald was in the kitchen at the time. He rushed to get…
“Why Am I Still Single?”… Sometimes the enemy uses this question to get us in a desperate place. Don’t fall for it!
Raised in an Italian home, the rules were simple. Sunday morning, everyone was up and at ’em and off to Church, whether you liked it or not. Before the age of 13, I didn’t really mind. Most of my friends were there anyway. Once I became a teenager, it was a whole different story. I was dragged, kicking, screaming and pouting all the way. I swore that when I became an adult I was never going to Church. Ever again. And I didn’t. For a very long time. Fast forward to 2008 when mom was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Even in…
Are there times when we you have let past hurts and failures interfere with who you really are and causes you to take on a different role? If there was any invalidation thrown at you in the form of ‘you’re not doing it right’ or ‘you’re wrong’ or ‘you’re not good enough’ it makes sense that you would try to be somebody else. When you identify with invalidation and accept it as truth you may spend a good deal of time and effort trying to fix it by becoming someone you are not and never were meant to be. Others…
So I read an article on why single ladies can’t find their Boaz, David and Joseph. Very insightful and interesting article. The writer mentioned a key point which led me down a road of other thoughts. He stated that these notable men in the Bible did not have life all figured out but they definitely were connected to God and walked with Him. This shared fact had me thinking: David was a man after God’s heart; Joseph was revered as being a man of such great integrity. And Boaz? I can’t count the number of times that I’ve heard my single…

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” – Philippians 4:13 Within my journey of serving Christ, here are 5 things I’ve learned that I hope will help you on your journey as well: 1.

” In a few months my daughter will stand in front of a minister and get married to another woman. I love my daughter dearly, but I am not okay with this so I do not plan to attend the wedding. The problem is, My daughter suffers from Bi-Polar and has already tried to commit suicide once a few years ago. Her reason was that she felt like no one (specifically me) accepted her for who she was so she would rather be dead. I have not expressed to my daughter yet my intention to skip the wedding. My fear…
“Adam & Eve weren’t married, “ he said. I was dumbfounded. I couldn’t believe my boyfriend, a minister in training, was trying to convince me to sleep with him prior to marriage by using Bible characters. When I persisted in saying no, he told me my desire to abstain was a “good goal,” but wasn’t realistic. This man wasn’t the only “church player” I dated prior to meeting and marrying my husband. Another man warned me not to be “so heavenly minded that I was no earthly good.” I found out later that he was messing around with many sisters in…

For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, “Fear not, I am the one who helps you.”- Isaiah 41:13 Sometimes we become so dependent on our loved ones that we fail to realize they are human just like us. We expect them to step up to the plate and take on the role of “provider” in our hour of need and we forget that God is our sole provider. When I think back on my adult life, I’ve always had someone to lean on in my time of need; Someone who I counted on to bail me out…

As we approach the month of April I am reminded of the time I fasted from men for an entire month. I made this decision, because I was an emotional wreck over a relationship that was a total mess. It in turn left me a mess. I went from being confident and focused to feeling rejected and unloved. It was the beginning of 2014, and I had hit a low point already. I desperately needed something different than what I had been experiencing, and I knew only God could fix me. During the month of March 2014, I was really…
