Transparency
As 2016 transitioned into 2017 I was going through something traumatic, which I will get into at a later time, God started dealing with me in the area of transparency. The word kept coming up in everyday conversations. It kept coming up in my quiet time. It came up so much that I had to ask God, “Are you trying to tell me something?” His … Continue reading Transparency
Obedience is Better Than Sacrifice
My niece is a reserved person that prefers to be in the background. She lovingly serves others, even when they don’t know it, yet shies away from all accolades. She is a women after God’s own heart. I was talking with her the other day and she was explaining to me how God gave her an assignment, but she was afraid to do it. This … Continue reading Obedience is Better Than Sacrifice
Today I turned 38
As I sit and reflect on the things that has happened in the last few years, I am amazed at what God is doing, has done, and will do in the future. Five years ago you could not tell me I would be here. It is amazing what can happen when you follow the will of God. You never know how that one thing He … Continue reading Today I turned 38
Master Cleanse Review: Day 3
I never noticed how many food commercials come on TV until now. In a one hour period I must have seen twenty to thirty different restaurant ads. Needless to say Day 3 sucked. I started my day with V8 juice, then transitioned to homemade blended juices. It does say that you can make light vegetable soup or broth, but that didn’t seem as feeling as … Continue reading Master Cleanse Review: Day 3
Master Cleanse Review: Day 2
Day 2 is fruit and vegetables only. I’m not one of those people that need meat with every meal, therefore vegetables and fruit worked great. I didn’t feel like I was missing anything at all. I don’t feel any different than I do on any other day; so far, so good. Let’s see what Day 3 brings. Day 3 Master Cleanse Preparation: Liquids Only Switch … Continue reading Master Cleanse Review: Day 2
Master Cleanse Review: Day 1
I should have never started this while at work. There was a bowl of chocolate on the desk and boxes of donuts everywhere I went. Butterfinger hearts and a twist donut was my down fall. Even though I wasn’t perfect on Day 1, I refuse to give up. I did pay attention to what I had at every meal. I figured out that boredom is … Continue reading Master Cleanse Review: Day 1
What is a Master Cleanse?
Ok, so I am still on my weight loss journey. Currently my weight is hovering around 230-240 and I needed something to get me back on track. A couple of my friends suggested I do this thing called a master cleanse; you may have heard of it as the lemonade diet. I had never heard of this in my life. Of course I have heard … Continue reading What is a Master Cleanse?
New Year, New You
New Year, New You! I hate that phrase. It implies that the old you is all wrong. You could probably sit down and think of several things you would like to change about yourself, but I propose a different approach. Take a minute to write down all the things you like about yourself. Go ahead I’ll wait! Looking at that same list, are there things … Continue reading New Year, New You
It’s in the Name
Jehovah Shammah – the God that is with me. On April 3, 2012 I sprained my ankle walking out of a grocery store. After a trip to the ER, I went home with a walking boot, crutches and a prescription for Motrin 800’s. Ten days later on Friday, April 13 I went to see T.D. Jakes “Woman Thou Art Loosed on the 7th Day” at … Continue reading It’s in the Name
Pour it Out
The Bible is full of everyday people that we can draw inspiration from; seeing a little of ourselves in who they are. Take Martha of Bethany for example. The Bible doesn’t say, but Martha was probably a woman of means who had servants, cattle, and lots of land. She was able to feed and house thirteen plus men every time Jesus came to Bethany. The … Continue reading Pour it Out
