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
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
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! 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
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

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
Life has a way of pulling you in every direction. Family obligations and work seem to overlap each other while what you want to do seems to be put on the back burner. When things start to overwhelm you, when you don’t know which way is up, you have to take a step back. When I had my take a step back moment I was … Continue reading Take a Step Back
Have you ever had and idea that you knew was revolutionary? Thinking about it made you excited because you knew that it would benefit the people around you. Your idea is not just a good idea, but it is a God idea. You prepare every detail. You tell everyone you know; they are excited about it. You put everything you have and everything you are … Continue reading Stand or Fold
A daughter is driving down the highway with her Father on a road trip. Halfway to their destination it starts to get cloudy. The more they drive the darker it gets and it starts to rain. The daughter noticed on the side of the road that a car had stopped under the over pass, but she didn’t think anything of it. A few miles down … Continue reading Road Trip
I have been writing all of my life, even before I put pen to paper. As a child I would look out of car windows and wonder about where our destination was, who would be there and what we were there to do. Out of the picture window in the living room I would see people go by and make up stories about where they … Continue reading For the Life of Me
